I'll be honest, I had no idea who Ed Brown was but glancing at his record and youtube vids real quick, a 6'1" welter, 20-0 16 KO's, he could've been a problem if he was trained right and focused on boxing 100%. Too bad he couldn't stay out of trouble. RIP to a fallen boxer though, always sad to hear any boxer die young.

So young too. Only 25.

I seriously don't understand why this is a story. Did anyone actually read the article? Broner didn't do anything special. Granados was in camp with Broner at the time of brown's murder. Broner gave his condolences. What the **** else was he supposed to do? Kick him out of camp? All of a sudden broner is mother Teresa for feeling sympathy towards a sparring partners close death

You seriously need to read the article to comprehend whats going on. Broner and Granados weren't in camp together when Brown was killed. Brown was killed in December You sound pretty ****** with your statement especially asking if we read the article. I think its you who needs to reread the article before coming on here with your ****** remarks.

why do you think they have strict gun laws? because of the gun violence? you think that's a bad idea? you'd rather have everybody carry a gun like the wild west?

1. People should be able to mount Howitzers on their house if they so choose.

2. Yes, if people want to walk around like Rick Grimes in the Walking Dead, they should be allowed to. You can where I live and we don't have anything even close to the violence going on there. And last I saw, we(NC) are 12th when it comes to gun laws vs Illinois which is 9th. Yet we can open/conceal carry without the crazy violence.

3. Gun violence across the nation has been dropping for decades, long before this modern crusade against guns started. Yet this madness going on in Chicago is because of a lack of legislation? Please.

4. We have more than enough gun laws.

so you think the violence in chicago would go down if guns were even easier to get? doesn't make much sense. more guns=less violence has never really panned out in stats. southside chicago is a couple minutes from indiana where they have crappy gun control so it doesnt really work when you can drive a couple minutes to another state and buy a gun off craigslist.

states have open borders so you can ship/take guns across borders which hurts the states with stricter gun control. if you look at other countries with stricter gun control they dont have this problem. even if you look at hawaii they have the lowest death rate from guns. its because they have strict gun control and are isolated. you cant just bring in a gun over the border like in illinois/indiana. then you look at alaska which is mostly isolated and they have crappy gun control and the highest gun death rate.

there is obv some correlation between gun laws and results but there are many factors in play such as: economic factors, gun laws, proximity to other states with less gun control, etc...you can only do so much legislatively in a state since every state is connected(cept hawaii and alaska kinda)

he almost surely thinks that, but won't admit it. if he says it it's because he doesn't believe it deep down, but would like to score a talking point.


this is america, a country where a sturdy amount of people think that more guns in the developed country with the most guns [and gun violence] is a good thing.



public schools barely teach these guys to read.

I don't read any more into this other than friends trying to help each other through a bad patch which is cool.

The only worry I have about the fight is sometimes when friends fight they hold back a little. In this case, knowing Granados he probably won't.

I don't think Broner is a bad guy. He might act ****** sometimes but he wouldn't be alone in that.

Never said it would lower violence there. I pointed out that my state of NC, has comparable gun laws to Illinois, and does'nt have the kind of violence going on in Chicago. While being able to open/conceal carry. All the while we are surronded by states that have looser gun control.

Anyways my goal is'nt to lower gun violence. My goal is to preserve my freedom as a law abiding citizen. The fact that .01 percent of the population can't keep their **** in their pants should have no effect on my ability to purchase the weapons of my choosing without the government being squarely inserted into my ass.

Could of addressed me if you wanted to talk **** lol. I'll say it like I did in my last post to Daggum. My goal has nothing to do with lowering violence.

there's no other developed country with several major cities that have a murder rate rivaling the third world. america has flint, detroit, cleveland, chicago, and many others. gun legislation works. the first world coutnry with the most guns and the least stringent gun laws has an exponentially higher rate of muder and gun violence. suicide and non murder gun crime, too.


there's just no common sense argument for the reduction of gun legistlation in chicago. the city has an epidemic level problem with gun violence.



also, did you read anything other than what you bolded? be honest, now. i know it takes longer for some to read than others, but it was only a few sentences

Dude, Im not trying to be combative, but do you realize that new laws require the very legislation you are championing, but there is one small problem... Criminals don't obey laws! If that were the case, the Draconian drug laws in this country (stop and frisk, ridiculous mandatory minimums etc...) would have eradicated the drug problem years ago - BUT THE PROBLEM IS BIGGER NOW THAN WHEN THE WAR ON DRUGS STARTED!
And as far as your "Wild West" scenario, I am a free born, law-abiding, and constitutionally eligible gun owner, and the last thing I need is some d-bag politician in Springfield, or Washington DC for that matter, telling me what level of force I can meet a threat initiated against me or my family. These are decisions I am capable of making myself.
You should try having a conversation in the future and not acting like a snarky know-it-all, especially when you put forth the most predictable and sop****ric analysis.
