How about a speech about the thug culture? The guy kills the girl
friend,
who is the mother of his 3 year old daughter. Guns may make it
easier, but
that is not the reason for all the violence. Lack of values is the real
problem.



The guy (costas) was just looking for brownie points...

From who, moron? Costas is at the top of his game. From wiki:
