Nanny Bloomers says he is guaranteed a place in heaven.

Imagine the shock he is in for when he gets there.

Bloomberg really does think that his excrement smells like roses.

They need a reality show where Bloomberg comes into your house when you are away, and tosses your unhealthy food, cigarettes, guns, and anything else he doesn’t like in the trash.

Good. Let's have the fight. Waste your money, you idiot. May the best man win, and our side ain't gonna lose. Why? Because we have the guns. And you don't.

When you join Everytown you’ll get a pacifier with the Everytown logo, a box of Huggies with the logo and a year’s subscription to their American Whiners magazine.

The difference between the NRA and this is bottom up vs top down. The NRA is effective because it has a passionate membership. Top down works for the leftist groups that fund the Democrats and impact policy (see all the Soros groups, etc). They don’t incite passionate followings because they work behind the scenes.

Everytown? It sounds like an theme park at Disneyland. Does it have a theme song?

I wonder if he will require his security team to join and give up their guns. Hmmm.
