1. Gun Safety? More like Gun grabs.
2. McKelvey ostensibly created AGS in an attempt to bring the two warring sides together in the spirit of compromise.
Jon Cowan, Cuomo staffer middle ground??
3. States United to Prevent Gun Violence, which organized on its own last year to provide a united voice for state gun-violence-prevention organizations.
Same ole Song and Dance as Aerosmith would say.
4. Carolynne Jarvis, executive director of the Michigan Partnership to Prevent Gun Violence
Busted. States United is headed by $80,000 a year Jarvis. We know her in Michigan. I never met her, but heard her speak. She doesn't like us. I knew that since she kept glaring at me the entire time.
I did meet MPPGV's lawyer. He said there is no 2nd amendment right that used Warren Burger's fraud. They also view themselves as public health groups. McKelvey funds MPPGV as well.
5. . But we believe there needs to be a group that says to the 85 million people who own guns and the 48 percent of the voters who live in houses with guns, "There's nothing wrong with owning a gun as long you're not a prohibited person and as long as you're responsible about it."
Actions speak louder than words. Their hostility to CCW suggests otherwise.
6. The NRA is uncompromising in what it is they want and what their goals are," she says. "But they are very compromising in terms of the language they use. They are speaking to those nonpolarized people that we would like to speak to. They are definitely and intentionally reaching out through plain language to people who may never have owned a gun before to try to make gun ownership the family thing to do."
DUHHHHHHHHH! It's called politics.
7. In June, for instance, a poll conducted for the Brady group by Opinion Research Corporation International showed overwhelming public support for a variety of gun-control measures, including 83 percent support for a requirement mandating background checks on every buyer at gun shows and 73 percent support for a law that would limit handgun purchases to no more than one per month.
Funded by the Joyce Foundation....which created MPPGV.
8. "The American people are on our side," he says. "We should be more firm in our commitments. But instead of pushing our agenda, we've gotten mushier and mushier."
If all the people are on your side, what's this referendum on guns in 2000 you were pushing? How come all pro-2a incumbents won re-election? Answer that Ms Jarvis? Mr Neal(lawyer)? Why is that?
