DLJ Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The Bills have a type: “Jake Fromm, a former star quarterback for the University of Georgia who was recently drafted to the Buffalo Bills, apologized on Thursday after past text messages of his emerged online, showing him saying that guns should be expensive so only “elite white people” can buy them. According to NBC Sports, in the newly emerged messages, Fromm said that guns were “good" and added, “Just make them very expensive so only elite white people can get them haha.” The messages were reportedly sent when Fromm still played for Georgia in March of last year. Fromm tweeted on Thursday afternoon that he is “extremely sorry” for his choice of words in the text message conversation. “Although I never meant to imply that I am an ‘elite white person,’ as stated later in the conversation, there’s no excuse for that word choice and sentiment. While it was poor, my heart is not,” Fromm said. “Now, more than ever, is the time for support and togetherness and I stand against racism 100%,” he continued. “I promise to commit myself to being a part of the solution in this country.” “I addressed my teammates and coaches in a team meeting today and I hope they see this incident is not representative of the person I am. Again, I’m truly sorry for my words and actions and humbly ask for forgiveness,” Fromm added. “ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have relatives that live in the Buffalo area and believe me they are not elite 'white privilege' folks. But they do own and have an $300 shotgun. #AntifaTerrorists had better not try to invade their homes. They use the shotguns to feed their families during deer hunting season rather than rely on welfare and food stamps. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HighPitch Posted June 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2020 What a BS world we live in today. One guy cant say he's proud to be an American and the other cant joke around with his friends in personal texts. Then the masses that have certainly said "questionable" things many times in the past but have been fortunate enough to have not been "outed" or "discovered" (yet) get to ride their high horses and get praised for their condemnations of the less enlightened. If you believe The Prez and others never made a light hearted racist joke in his life then your just a plain fool Give me a break. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not in any way "elite". I've worked my way up since I've been 12 years old and I have had a CCW since the FL law was passed over 25 years ago. I carry my gun whenever I need to put myself in risk, which I avoid at all costs. A home invasion and they will be sorry and I'll be protected by the Castle Doctrine Law which gives me liability from criminal and CIVIL liability. You can call me elite since I've retired at 61 and have had everything I want and can wake up everyday and do whatever I want everyday. But I've WORKED for that and not expected welfare to provide for me. FACT - The most law abiding demographic is CCW permit holders. - Eat that baby. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
