| Who's Doing More?
I've had enough of Mayor Mike Bloomberg, Mayor Tom Menino, and these other big-city mayors who are trying to say that they're the ones on the side of law enforcement, and it's the NRA who's not looking out for cops. You want to know the truth? The truth is that every year, NRA-certified firearms instructors train tens of thousands of law enforcement officers, because we want to make sure that these cops come home at the end of their shifts. How many cops have the anti-gun groups trained? Not one. That's true for the Brady Campaign, Stop Handgun Violence, the Violence Policy Center and every other gun control group. That's just one of many things the NRA does to support law enforcement. But Mayor Bloomberg says we're "coddling criminals." The truth is, it's Mike Bloomberg who's doing that. Let me give you a couple of examples: Jersey City Mayor Jeremiah Healey was recently convicted of resisting arrest. Has Bloomberg kicked his pal out of his "anti-criminal" organization? Of course not. The mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, has pled guilty to illegally carrying a concealed weapon. Was that enough to get him booted from "Mayors Against Illegal Guns?" Nope. I guess Bloomberg thinks that if it's a mayor carrying a gun illegally, it's okay. These two mayors I just mentioned are criminals who belong to Bloomberg's organization. If Bloomberg is really serious about putting cops ahead of criminals, maybe he should boot the lawbreakers out of "Mayors Against Illegal Guns." More... |
