As in all causes...in the original group...there’s some logic and reasoning that makes sense. Greenpeace was that way....various groups like World Wide Fund for Nature, OxFam, EarthWatch, SandWatch, etc....all had some logical purpose in the beginning, and each was taken over within a couple of years (hijacked would be an appropriate word). The Sierra Club has become a club of agenda players....without much on substance.
In this case, Bloomberg’s team will be run mostly into the ground....eating up the $50 million easily over a year or two, and begging for more, or demanding that foundations participate in their game. Go and ask for their meeting notes, then look over how many were brought to town and wined over some weekend for $7000 each at some fancy and swanky hotel. It’s there to exist....mostly to swindle future money from foundations and rich idiots who got tax breaks and now have too much cash on their hands.
He realizes that his crusade to disarm the US is a lost cause>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Plus he and his colleagues realize that Bloomberg is not the fatted cow to be milked as previously thought.No big bucks here, time to “move on” org.
He has to know how bad this looks for the gun control group. When the head of an organization walks away for no apparent reason, it casts doubt as to the authenticity of the group and it’s members.
I can sympathathize. I despair of people using apostrophes correctly and spelling simple words correctly. A pox on you, Bloomberg.
This is awfully minor but was this in the original: “consistently loosing to the NRA”?
Maybe Bloomberg can hire Chris Christie in his place.
