Bloomberg group could target Washington, Oregon next

Washington, Oregon and Minnesota “could be the next battlegrounds” for the kind of gun control promoted by anti-gun billionaire Mayor Michael Bloomberg and his Mayors Against Illegal Guns, according to a report in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal following Tuesday’s recall of two anti-gun Democrat state senators in Colorado.

I don't need that slime ball or his goons coming to Washington any time soon. He's a liar, uses public resources to advance his personal agendas, and generally just sticks his big nose in everyone's business. I wish they'd look into all of his financial dealings and find some dirt. MAIG is a farse. They aren't going after illegal guns, they are going after all guns.

Here's a little food for thought about some former and current members of MAIG:

A Bloomberg anti-gun mayor is charged with carrying weapon

http://www.nysun.com/new-york/bloomberg-anti-gun-mayor-is-charged-with-carrying/43999/

He also pleaded guilty to carrying a gun into a church and into a park, also illegal under state law. The first was reduced from a felony charge to a misdemeanor; the latter two were misdemeanors.

These idiots have no right to be telling anyone about illegal anything!

this is A quote from the article." Mr. Morse, a former police chief, helped lead the charge against the battlefield-styled weapons used in the school massacre in Newtown, Conn." everything I read said that only handguns were found in the school. When did they start using handguns for battlefield weapons.

The following Washington Mayors are members of Bloomberg's criminal anti-gun organization. It is critical that these mayors dissociate themselves from this anti-gun group. You can do your part by contacting their office and urging them to withdraw their MAIG membership or work to remove them from office

Connell - Garland D. Walton
Duvall - Will Ibershof
Enumclaw - Liz Reynolds
Issaquah - Ava Frisinger

Most everyone I ever served with either was issued a handgun for "battlefield (or jungle) use" or managed to find one to carry.

FWIW, how much difference is there between Baghdad and Chicago when you take away the car bombs and RPG's?


Sure was nice to see Bloomie and his other henchmen take a licking in the Colorado recall.

Yes I realize that they carried them in battle I did too. But you don't usually think handgun when someone says battlefield weapon. You think M-16,M-14, hell I even carried A 30 cal. carbine . damb I'm old, Saw 249, and that sort of stuff.

Well if Bloomy and company decide to show up in WA, I'll be there to counter with my XD, a box of donuts, and a big gulp :)

Also, I am working on a letter for the Renton city mayor. I actually talked to him once about this already and he says he is a gun owner himself. I think he was duped into thinking MAIG was actually about illegal guns. I am considering going on record at the next Renton City Council meeting also.

Nick Hanauer is a major problem for our state right now, we need to make his wallet feel pain if he is going to continue. Bloomberg gets a lot of press, but I am honestly more worried about this moron. Time to get him in the spotlight.

Last time he cancelled when Workman wrote about the warm reception he'd receive from us Oc'ers.

Maybe he thought we were just bluffing, let's show him we are not. I'll be there with lawfully carried firearms and a big gulp, and a salty snack.

Maybe we can borrow a page from SPD and buy doritos and print a message on it and hand them out.
