because the Wizards are in the centre of the whole Arenas controversy.
It is legal to carry concealed weapons in Georgia. We are the only state in the union that allows concealed weapons at the airport as long as they stay beyond the security check point.

But what Crawford did is legal in the state of Georgia whereas what Arenas did is illegal in Washington DC.

Lol what are you talking about, this has to do with hand gestures not an actual gun.

You need to read the weapons laws in the two states where the alleged crimes were committed.

What does gun laws have to do with fining someone for making hand gestures, nothing.

Making a hand gesture in DC where the guns laws are very strict is not the same as making a hand gesture in Atlanta where the gun laws are citizen friendly and everyone can carry a concealed weapon wherever they choose to.

Stern is a mind reader?How can he be 100%sure the Wizzards were making gun gestures?Maybe Arenas pee pee was sticking out of his bloomers and some were pointing at it to make him aware of it and some were making pee pee shapes with their fingers to define what was sticking out.If it happened to Stern they would all be using their pinky fingers.

The fine is because of the Arena situation, has nothing to do with any kind of law whatsoever. Just because you can carry a gun somewhere has no bearing on Stern's fine for making hand gestures. The fine is to not encourage a negative stereotype of the NBA and to not take the Arena's situation lightly, gun laws has nothing to do with this.

The question here in the title is whether Crawford will be fined by Stern. I say no he will not be fined because this will outrage gun owners in Georgia where owning a legal firearm is a privilege of law abiding citizens.

Youre saying a hand gesture is equivalent to owning a gun, amazing.
