A former phb-ette hag psycho bossy network administrator that I suffered under would infer blatantly what the “correct thinking “ should be.

She would probably kill for the chance to dictate everything and spy on people. Going through garbage would be a pleasure for her.

Stupid. Perhaps the fundraising people at the school will have a little talk with him.

Is he going to illegally search all their cars, apartments, etc.?

He can’t know what they own or don’t own...unless the players are stupid and plaster it all over Facebook or Twitter.

Which, given this generation, probably will happen. *rolls eyes*

Coach will love it after each West Virginia score.

The Mountaineer shoots his musket after every Touchdown!

“Mizzou with its diminished enrollment, bleeding cash, hasn’t lost enough money I guess.”

It needs to be shuttered, and so should Penn State (just for openers, because there are dozens more that need to be permanently closed as well).

“I believe it is a federal law that you must be 21 to purchase a handgun.”

You are completely wrong. Gun ownership age limits are a state matter.

“Definitely. He’s a public official acting under color of law who has just illegally deprived his players of their constitutional right to own hand guns. That’s a legally actionable civil rights violation under the United States Code,that could entitle the aggrieved players,to actual and punitive damages plus attorneys’ fees.”


There is no question about this - every employee of the PUBLIC University of Missouri MUST abide by all Constitutional rights, or face the possibility of a PERSONAL lawsuit under Title 43, Section 1983.

Not completely wrong. You cannot buy from a gun dealer (fed law) but you can from private party or possess as a gift (Missouri law). Still, how would the coach know? Does he inventory all private property upon joining the team? I think if someone lost a scholarship over this, they would have a case. Does he seek to limit freedom of speech> Waive your right to a trial by jury, post bond, illegal seizure, etc?

Protest and outrage to be reserved by the media until XYZ University mandates each player own a bible.

The way I see it, he just made himself liable for their defense and protect from harm.

I believe Fox has corrected the story, that Odumb was talking about illegal handguns

Funny, I didn’t know coaches were also lawmakers by default.

That was my first thought, too. But, then again, I thought he makes them sitting ducks like all unarmed people are.

Missouri prohibits anyone from violating the federal law prohibiting a person under age 18 from possessing a handgun or handgun ammunition and prohibiting anyone from selling or transferring a handgun or handgun ammunition to a person under age 18. Federal law imposes stricter age restrictions in certain situations.

What about a player packing a pistol shaped “Pop-Tart” at the athletic feeding trough?
