Now that Mike Bloomberg is on center stage running for President of the United States, his past policies are coming to light. Those of us who are strong supporters of the Second Amendment know that Mike Bloomberg single-handedly funds the gun control groups that aim to disarm law-abiding Americans. What's interesting is that he cherry-picks when he talks about the organization he founded, Everytown for Gun Safety, and its subgroup, Moms Demand Action. Whenever he wants to prove he is a real Democrat or cares about issues the rest of the nation does, he then interjects the amount of money he's funneled into these gun control groups.
During his town hall with Fox News on Monday, Bloomberg was asked about his desire to disarm average Americans while having an armed security detail. His response was pathetic at best. He made the argument that he repeatedly receives threats but the people who he has hired to protect him are "all retired police officers who are very well trained in firearms."
In other words, average Americans are too stupid to know about firearms and the basics of gun safety. Apparently you have to be a law enforcement officer to know those things (at least in Mini Mike's mind).

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.”
Maybe his ego is two YUGE to drop out. His ads are horrible. Some ad agency is making a bundle though.
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
LOL! Hard to decide which are/were worse. Tommy styro of napoleon bloombergapart.
I have YouTube Premium so I don’t have to see ads. That being said, I see a lot of comments on YouTube that people are really tired of all the Bloomie ads . . .
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?
I recall nuzzlin’ joe declaring the demodrones will not deal with facts any longer. Just the truth. Um, okee dokee.
The Washington Times had this headlined at the top left of it’s web site...However, the story ‘is no longer available’
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.
No, no, you're just hitting your prime!
Lest you forget, Mini-Mike is an EXPERT on everything...he can even teach you how to farm since you’re obviously not smart enough to figure it out on your own! /s
Yes, same here.
Both shoulders, knee, brain, etc.
I was trying to convince you AND myself lol.
“Mini-Mike is an EXPERT on everything...he can even teach you how to farm”
When I think of Bloomingidiotberg being a farmer, I see Pauly Shore in “Son In Law” with the cow peeing on his head.
