His quote after the church shooting in Texas was particularly revealing. When asked about the individuals stopping the shooter in 20 sec, he said ordinary people cannot be trusted to have conceal/ carry permits. Apparently it doesn’t matter that many more lives would have been lost that morning had fellow worshippers not stopped the guy in his tracks.

Yep, I suspect after tonight he drops out.

His answer was clear, to wit:

1. “I’m special, you’re not. My risks are real, yours aren’t.”
2. “As such, my paid trained guards get assault weapons, you’re too ignorant to have them and don’t need them anyway.”

There are plenty of “retired police officers” who carried the same gun their whole career, and the cartridges are so corroded they won’t even function.

I bought a shotgun over the Internet and I had to have it sent to a FFL shop where I picked it up after doing the background check. My wife bought a gun at a gun show and went through the same check before she got the gun. We actually paid for it, filled out the paperwork and then walked around the show and came back to pick it up. Little Mike needs to get his facts straight

Sooo, I have almost 7 years in the Amry active duty in the US Infantry. I was trained as a range safety NCO and ran range control for the Military Police at Ft Leavenworth, KS. I was also trained in small arms maintenance. I consistantly shoot the equivalant of “expert” according to the US Army markmanship program in pistol and rifle. Still can acheive that level though at 55, the body damage is starting to show.

I have been in the security field in one way or another for over 35 years. I regularly attend additional training and visit the range frequently. My friend from the local Sheriff’s office who is their training officer tells me that I would be in the top 5% of all of the deputies for accuracy.

So, am I qualified? And who the hell are you Mr. Bloomberg to say anything about my qualifications?

Mike Bloomberg has yet to suggest a law that would stop this scenario. A citizen buys a gun at a gun dealer and goes through the background check. He is found to be mentally ok, has no criminal record whatsoever, does not do drugs, and is allowed to purchase the gun. However, he leaves the gun in his truck, and a criminal breaks into his truck and steals the gun. The criminal then uses the gun to commit a robbery, and in the process kills someone. A legal gun is used to commit a violent crime and thus becomes an illegal gun. Yet the gun did not kill anyone. The criminal did.

Mike’s solution to this situation is to take all guns from law abiding citizens. Thank God for the wisdom of our Founding Fathers. Though our Founding Fathers did not have criminals in mind. They had a tyrannical government in mind. The same kind of government that the Democrats love.
