MAYOR TAKES AIM VS. GUNS ("We will take our message to Albany, to Washington...," Bloomberg said.)

[Mr. Mojo]

"Our most urgent challenge is ending the threat of guns and the violence they do," Bloomberg said

< / Guns as sentient beings alert >

[Agent Smith]

Bloomberg is a rich RINO idiot with way too much time on his hands.

Perhaps he is George Soros's lost twin?

Handguns have been banned in NYC for many years. Bloomie is a loonie.

[Steel Wolf]

Bloomberg's push for a further gun crackdown comes in the wake of state lawmakers' passage last month of the "heroes law" — named for Stewart and Enchautegui — which increases penalties for trafficking in illegal guns and for gun crimes against cops.

I'm all for increased penalties for increased penalties for gun crimes period. The problem isn't gun control, it's criminal control.

[Bogolyubski]

Why doesn't this elitist POS move to Soviet Kanuckistan? It's always amusing to listen to a billionaire with a personal security detail, carrying weaponry that regular citizens are denied access to (like post 1986 full autos), blather on about the need for getting all those dangerous guns off the streets.

"We will take our message to Albany, to Michigan, South Dakota, Texas, Oregon, Washington DC. And then we're going to take back the whitehouse YAAAAAAARGH!"

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Does anybody else remember Rudy screaming like Dean about people being allowed to buy guns in Florida.

[RightWinger]

Dear Mayor Bloomberg,

Get rid of criminals and then you won't have to worry about guns.

Until then, good people need guns to protect themselves.

Sincerely,
Good Citizen

Happy New Year!!!

Sure, Bloomberg...Come to Texas...Stay as long as you like...Spend all the money you can here to try and change things in Texas...

We won't even tell you yer wasting your time...And more important, your money...

"Our most urgent challenge is ending the threat of guns and the violence they do,"

I still have not seen a gun jump up and do any violence without a criminal in control of it.

Handguns have been banned in NYC for many years.

That's news to one of my best friends who practices regularly at the West Side Rifle & Pistol Range at 20 W 20TH St., New York, NY 10011-4213 (212) 929-7287. Parking is no problem after 6 PM on Friday evenings.

Give the VPC a little time...hysterical, kumbyah-singing ugly women are historically horrible when it comes to digitally doctoring a video...

"Our most urgent challenge is ending the threat of guns and the violence they do," Bloomberg said.....

Good Heavens! Guns have somehow "learned" how to pull their own triggers........
We're Doomed!

[Hurricane]

It takes a RUDY.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Rudy and Bloomie can both stay out of Florida. What we do here is none of their business!

[real saxophonist]

Well, that's it. I'm getting rid of my guns because of the violence they do. There's so much 'gun violence' and 'guns on the streets'... I got a flat tire just last week from 'guns on the streets'...

[GuineaRabbit]

That's odd I didn't run over a single gun on the way to work today.

I think all the blood spilling onto the streets after the klinton gun ban went away must have washed all the guns off the street too.
