NEW YORK Among the slick, million-dollar ads for the likes of Pepsi and Honda during the Super Bowl this Sunday, viewers in Washington will see a far more modest spot. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino will be sitting on a couch touting an issue most politicians avoid like the plague: gun control.
The two mayors, whose local teams face off in the big game, are making the pitch for Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG), the organization they co-founded in 2006.

Aren’t most football watchers red meat conservatives? This looks like it is bidding fair to be a “kick me” ad.

This is why the NFL is going to hell in a hand basket. No one wants to sit through a Super Bowl commercial watching a couple political idiots taking about gun control.

This thread has just added to the
FreeRepublic "bang list" (firearms interest list) by adding the keyword "banglist".
Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.

So, the Mayors Against Illegal Guns want to make guns illegal for all law-abiding citizens. Shouldn’t they call themselves Mayors In Favor Of Illegal Guns?

When a body on FR makes one of these “War and Peace” pings with a hundred or so names in it, how does that happen. Is this a cut and paste out of a private file, or is there some mechanism I haven’t discovered?

“He added that more Americans have been killed by illegal guns since 1968 than were killed in World War II.”
I didn’t know WWII lasted 44 years.

They (Michael Bloomberg and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, et. al.), think by just giving a speech, or enacting a policy will prevent criminals from using a gun to commit a crime?
Just like the unicorn 0bama rides, sh@ting Skittles, so are the dreams of tyrants everywhere.
Disarm the populace, and there will be utopia.
There's a bad moon on the rise...

The demographic seems to be less than optimal. Probably the the same efficacy as running it during a Nascar event or a professional bull riding event.
What could they possibly be thinking of?
To: ColdOne
(a) How did this jackass get elected?
Answer: $$s and Lesser of Two Evils
(b) Why has no recall been mounted against this ultra-liberal dog?
Answer: New Yorkers don’t have the spunk?

“.....viewers in Washington.....”
So, the gun grabbers will not be seen nationwide?
Is that what this means?
