Yup. There are many many more gun owners than those who are members of the NRA and there are many other pro 2nd amendment groups.

He seems to see the NRA as simply a powerful lobbying group. He doesn't understand that the NRA represents millions of people... a genuine grassroots movement.

You oppose that sort of thing at your own risk. Odds of his success are not good.

He can spend $50 TRILLION for all I care. Dumba$s libs never understand that people’s values and beliefs can’t be changed by legislation. 2A is not up for negotiation and won’t be infringed no matter WTF they do.

“They say, ‘We don’t care. We’re going to go after you,’ ” he said of the N.R.A. “ ‘If you don’t vote with us we’re going to go after your kids and your grandkids and your great-grandkids. And we’re never going to stop.’ ”

Don’t think I’ve ever heard the NRA say that............weird.

The aristocracy throughout all of world history has wanted the serfs disarmed so that their control and actions are unfettered by an armed populace. An aristocracy that owns the media is even more dangerous because it enables propaganda to be used to convince some of the serfs to disarm other serfs. The threat to our democratic rights and freedoms comes from those who have an obsession to turn citizens into serfs and overturn our Constitution with pocket change.

This time Bloomberg wants to spend $50 million to set up a grassroots network...

Mikey evidently doesn't have a clue about what the word "grassroots" means.

Seems to me that what Bloomberg is saying is that when he gets to Heaven,he will be the new man in charge. Even less in charge than what you are here,sir.

But values and beliefs can be changed with propaganda and contrived events.

Very weird.

Of course this is the guy who installed a window air conditioning unit in his limousine.

I’ll bet there are a lot of grass roots people here on FR who could make good use of Bloomberg money.

Everybody, contact him! Email email email and phone phone phone!

Offer volunteer time, support, offer to hold meetings...

Urbanization is a political theory that makes the people dependent sheep instead self reliant individuals. There is an element in America that has been attempting to politically urbanise America just as in China.. Urban people tend to be culturally different than rural and small towns and even suburbia.. Urbanites want us all to dance to their pied piper.

Mr. Bloomberg,

I, a single party of one, resolute, and answerable only to myself, refuse to submit to any threats that you have made concerning refusing me my universal right to self-preservation, which would include my preserving myself from you and your minions, as well.

I, an individual American, stand ready to deliver against any and all threats upon my life or my property, in regards to any subversive actions enacted or endorsed by you, overtly or covertly, by legislation, by oral proposals, by proposals of organizations that you endorse, or by inference, thereof.

I, an individual American who is NOT a member of the National Rifle Association, do not agree, do not endorse, do not condone, and shall not accept, nor submit to, any infringement upon my Second Amendment rights, as called out in The Bill of Rights, which is within The U. S. Constitution, from the date of its inception.

Long Live The Republic!

I have had an epiphany! I am a changed man and have repented of my evil gun loving ways! Send me a couple mil. so I can reach my fellow gun nuts and save their souls! Oh, and I need to cut up all my evil guns, so could you throw in a nice plasma cutter? Preferably a Miller.

Nanny Bloomers thinks he is going to Heaven.

If he does, wait until he sees the welcoming committee:
