This was blown way out of proportion to begin with. He brought the gun from Charlotte originally if im not mistaken. It was registered to him and once he realized he had it he promptly notified the authorities.

How is this "blown out of proportion when this statement is in the article?

Bowers alerted the authorities before boarding the jet, and his admission of the error is thought to be a big part of why the charges were reduced.

The fact that they were originally talking about serious jail time was what I was talking about.

Before 9/11 they probably would not have even filled out paper work on something like this and just told him to have someone come and pick up the gun or just leave it there.

If he brought it by mistake and when he finally realized he had brought it, he reported it to the police.. Then I think he did what was the right thing to do if you ask me.. Just because he played for Clemson doesn't mean he is a bad kid.. He isn't one of them arrogant asshole players who just ran his mouth non stop and was a thug.. He represented the State of South Carolina very well even though he wore that god awful color Orange.. haha I mean both USC & Clemson have had some punk thugs on our teams and Bowers never fit that description... How are we, as Carolina fans, gonna get mad when they call DJ a thug and we go ahead and call Bowers a thug as well.. DJ nor Bowers have ever shown to have those attributes in them.. They both have raw passion for the game of football and they show it in every aspect, but leave it out on the field.. Sometimes they may have gotten caught up in the moment, but that doesn't dub them to be thought of, as bad guys.. Just my opinion really, so take it how you feel fit
