Warriors' Steve Kerr pushes gun control measures, calls out Ted Cruz after Colorado shooting
Fox News
Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr is unafraid to speak out on controversial topics and took a jab at some gun owners and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas while talking about the recent mass shootings in the U.S. on Tuesday.
"The reason to do it is to remind people these are human beings," Kerr said explaining the backdrop. "It’s important to humanize the victims, and not just count them. Too often, you pick up a story and you just read there were eight victims or 10 victims, whatever the number is. "When you see faces and when you see names, it personalizes it, you put it together and you think about how many people are suffering – how many family members and friends and not to mention, of course, how many lives were cut short and how many dreams were shattered. If we don’t humanize it, it just continues to be a statistic and it makes it much easier for the idiots out there to say, 'This is the price of freedom in terms of owning guns.’"More Related News
