This petition is being started to have Cris Carter FIRED from ESPN for his comments directed at Terrell Owens on Monday, December 28th:
"If I've got a gun, I've got one bullet in it, I shoot TO right now, right on the spot. I have a press conference, I have him come in, and I put a bullet right there [inaudible] in him."
Forget the fact that the comment in itself is just pure hate spewing out of a very sad man. It looked like TO was the only one who showed up to play in their loss to the Eagles. So to make a comment about how TO should be shot is not only completely insane, its just plain retarded. Cris, you are a douchebag, way to make your family proud!!

The discourse surrounding these comments remains deeply concerning to anyone who values professional standards. I am continuing to compile documented reactions to present directly to network leadership.
December 31, 2008
The momentum generated by this petition has surpassed my initial expectations. It is clear that many people find these comments regarding violence to be entirely unacceptable in professional sports media.

He needs to go.
Dr. Rachel Palmer
He is allowed to go on and on about getting a fall guy. This was practiced ahead of time and not just a mistake. His heart was not in the right place. His life is a poor example to these young players. Other white announcers have lost their jobs for using one wrong word or sentence. Hold him to,the same standard and get him off the air.
Don MacNeil
Piss poor example of a human being. "My heart was in the place." Meaning, I wanted to show these guys how stay out of trouble, but I didn't want the public to know what I said. ESPN sucks!
Michael Mcevoy
He's a terrible mentor/example to young,impressionable kids, he needs to go!!
Rich Doucette
Carter is a horrible human being.
To think that the NFL would consider him to be a good mentor for young players shows their lack of competence. ESPN has suspended or fired many for less.
Dru Erickson
Fire him and I will continue to watch espn
Chuck Butt
Chris Carter is such a bad role model.
Tony
He's a racist
Kathy Fredricks
This man is a racist and a homophobe - he needs to go!
