Great they have a coalition to stop violent crime because before now I guess that’s NOT what they were doing.

Based on the article, it could just as easily been called an “Anti Gang Violence Coalition” but they want to demonize firearms more than they want to demonize gangs.

Yep, they need an appropriately placed comma:

Anti-Gun, Violence Coalition.

gun violence in the US is only a symptom of the hard drug culture controlled by gangs and the import there of allowed by politicians. i.e. a wide open boarder to Mexico

This will be accomplished by targeting law-abiding citizens who happen to be gun owners.

They're okay with violent crime involving "Knives or cutting instruments", 'clubs, hammers, etc", "hands, fists, feet, etc.", Poison, Explosives, Fire, Narcotics, Drowning, Strangulation, and Asphyxiation? Why not just want to fight "violent crime" in general??????

(Since residents of their cities have much lower firearm ownership rates than the surrounding suburban and rural areas, maybe it's some other variable that's responsible for the problem? Oh, but their voters might get hurty feelers if we talked about that.)

Gun violence, no, we are witnessing the end result of LBJ’s Great Society. Destroy the family and you end up with feral children running the neighborhoods.

How many dollars did they obtain for themselves in the formation of this group? How many conferences will they hold to end gun violence this winter in Vegas, the Bahamas, or Puerto Rico? Next summer in Bangor Maine, Portland Oregon, or Martha's Vineyard?

These hacks are sooooo predictable.

But, I’m sure that they are still happy with the increase in SWAT raids, and various 4th amendment violations.

Maybe a little more research into why this coalition was formed and who is behind it is in order…

A wise move. Just because they are "prosecutors" doesn't guarantee that these people can be trusted. Prosecutors are bureaucrats and political animals first.

Law-abiding gun owners will be targeted for “having mental health issues” when a visit to the psychiatrist gets reported to the government.

Already happening in states that require a firearms owner I.D. card. Revoke someone’s FOID for reasons of mental health, the po-po come & take the guns away.

But no one’s doing anything about pudding cups, and Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell aren’t getting any thinner.

These Prosecutors want more people to prosecute.

The obvious problem with barring the "mentally ill" is when they lower the bar for what constitutes mental illness.
Are you afraid someone will break into your apartment?
You must be paranoid. No gun for you.

Dang guns walk out at night and randomly shoot people - they've grown feet...

There's no violent black gangs pulling the triggers. No South side Chicago Slaughters... It's not criminals. It's not thugs. Guns have become mindless robots - killing machines.../s
