SAF declares war on Bloomberg’s mayors group
The Second Amendment Foundation today came out swinging in a blistering new effort designed raise public awareness about ironies involving Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the organization of mayors founded more than six years ago by anti-gun New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The Bellevue-based organization announced a new project, Gunowners Against Illegal Mayors, and it has smarmy details about members and former members of MAIG who ran afoul of the law while their organization has labored to tighten down on the gun rights of American citizens.
SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb unveiled an advertisement that identifies more than a dozen former mayors who have pleaded guilty to or have been charged with various felonies, or made plea bargains. There are convictions for such crimes as bribery, extortion, embezzlement, attempted sexual assault of a child, racketeering and fraud. SAF’s Phil Watson told Examiner last week that there are more MAIG members who have had legal problems, but there was only room for 18 on the new advertisement, which appeared briefly Tuesday on The Gun Wire, and can still be seen on The Gun Mag.com.
