Bloomberg’s Real Agenda: Self-Defense is ‘Gun Violence’ His useful tools consider Boston Marathon terrorist Tamerlan Tsarnaev a victim, too.

Yesterday, a small group of supporters congregated in Concord, New Hampshire to support Mayor Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns. They read off a list of people “killed by guns” while standing before their “No More Names” bus.

In the rush to demonize gun owners, the New Hampshire Union Leader chose to focus on one “gun rights supporter” arrested when he “placed his hand on an officer.” If this man indeed assaulted somebody, that’s a criminal act, and all reasonable people will condemn it. However, a much more interesting assault occurred that received no coverage: the Mayors Against Illegal Guns consider self-defense to be “gun violence.”
While mourning the names of “gun violence victims,” organizers read off the name “Tamerlan Tsarnaev,” one of the two brothers who committed the mass bombing at this year’s Boston Marathon. He and his brother “carjacked a man in a Mercedes-Benz, keeping him with them in the car for half an hour before releasing him at a gas station in Cambridge.” They were fleeing when police chased them down, and engaged in a “gun battle” with police, and Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed.
This is curious. Does Mayor Bloomberg—one of the richest men in the world who receives 24/7 police protection—expect his police bodyguards to simply die so he may live? If they shoot an attacker, will he destroy their career because they committed “gun violence”?
You could counter that this is just an indication of the type of useful tools supporting Bloomberg’s agenda. But Bloomberg wants the world to see him as a leader, and he’s spent more money on his anti-rights agenda than the NRA and firearms manufacturers together, including the millions Bloomberg has donated to Mayors Against Illegal Guns. So it’s reasonable to conclude that his minions promote his beliefs.
This is an assault not only on the Second Amendment, but on your right to life: If you defend yourself against a violent attacker, you’re committing gun violence!
•When 52-year-old Susan Pohl was stabbed by her attacker, she wasn’t defending herself with the best tool to even the playing field, she committed gun violence.
•When Clarence Wesley killed the robber who had just shot her own son, she wasn’t following the legal principle that you have the right to use deadly force when another person’s at risk of grievous bodily harm, she added to the gun violence.

When one of the wealthiest men in the world, surrounded by his personal armed bodyguards, tells you to do as he says but not as he does, perhaps it becomes a little more understandable that law-abiding citizens might become a little agitated: It’s King George trying to disarm us all over again.

The local Newspaper recently carried 2 letters , the first was restating the local commercials  "don't let a NY Billionaire use a Minn. cop to tell NH how to live".
The 2nd letter was a reply saying that "Mayor Bloomberg is just looking out for our best interests".

Don't people realize that if you need a NY politician to tell you how big a soda you should have you are to lazy, irresponsible, or stupid to be taken seriously ?
You should not be allowed to vote and should probably have all your affairs managed by a more competent person.

Maybe the "Day by day" cartoon needs a new character, a psychotic control freak named Buck Floomy.
