Bloomberg, the Second Amendment and the police

stephen flatow
NYC's Mayor (or would-be-if-I-could-Emperor) Michael Bloomberg has slipped again when he called for police to go on strike over the lack of stringent gun controls.  This was his reaction to the horrific movie theater shooting rampage in Colorado.

Mr. Bloomberg's self-appointed role as the leader of the anti-gun movement among politicians is mostly self-financed and I have no beef with that.  What I do object to is his non-stop use of his elected pulpit to spout nonsense about gun violence and gun control in the U.S.

This editorial from the New York Sun brings home the point that the mayor is operating in his own universe.

Mayor Bloomberg and Ice-T

Anyone out there sorry that Mike did away with term limits?

Well, that's what I have to say.
