He says that Obama and Rmoney both need to step up and address the issue.
Do you agree with him on that point?
I do.

Even so, Bob Shieffer said that most Americans favor unregulated gun ownership.
I don't really believe that, but I guess Shieffer just spouts the rightwing pov.

(33 posts)Let's not so soon forget what his brownshirts did to Occupy. Fuck Michael Bloomberg.

(28,895 posts)What is Bloomberg's motive for speaking out about gun control?
Also, he's not the only mayor to clamp down on OWS, and some of
those bad mayors were Dems too. It makes me want to start
disliking mayors in general, but we're really talking about the entire
political system now aren't we?

"He is a petty tyrant who enjoys having his subjects disarmed. he hopes that if he can disarm more subjects he will someday be a greater tyrant."
The day Bloomie gives up his thugs I may start to listen, a little.

Instead, everyone said why he's a bad guy. I agree he's a bad guy. But on this point, that Obama and Rmoney need address the gun issues, I agree with him.
No one answered that question.
