As I read the article, its not "The Superbowl" that is anti gun, but a commercial by a couple of anti gun politicians.  My question is, is this going to be a paid advertisement, or a "public service" bit donated free by the network.  If free, why not a rebuttal add by a pro gun group?  For that matter, why not a paid add by the NRA?

It's an ad paid for by Mayor "Bloombag" of NYC and his anti-gun coalition.  They could only afford to pay for a short spot in certain "targeted" (read: liberal) markets.

My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.

I couldnt care less about this Super Bowl but I thought I might turn it on and watch a bit until I saw this. Now I believe I'll go ahead and join you in your boycott.

I've always thought it would be cool if someone hacked into the nework and showed a comercial from the outdoor channel like Ruger or the Judge pistol comercial during superbowl. Lol
