Bloomberg Seeks To Question Candidates About Guns

Submitted by chuck higgins, Dec 10, 2007 09:17

What a joke, Attack law abiding legal gun owners while failing to enforce the gun laws already on the books.
Bloomberg sticks his nose and money in the affairs of other states and their legitimate businesses, while his liberal friends make every excuse for the low life thugs that obtain them ILLEGALLY. There are over 200,000,000 guns in the hands of private citizens- that is over 80,000,000 owners . Their will never be meaningful gun control as long as folks feel unsafe. Mike ought to go along with CSI and help draw a little white line around a few bodies while noting that the police in swat attire mill around looking for a 'perp' long since gone. It is our responsibility to protect us and our loved ones . Like anything limited or controlled , black markets spring up to fill the need. The price may go up but the gun population will also. So maybe MIKE should get on his big personal jet spewing millions of tons of co2 head for Bali and other warmer climes and then dictate to us how WE need to reduce our carbon footprint. Both actions produce the same smell of hypocrite blowviating.
