Craig Eaton’s own choice for mayor, Mike Bloomberg, is now using his version of the radical left tactic of letting no tragedy go to waste in order to push for his MORE comprehensive version of gun-control — and get this — in spite of having billions and billions and billions of dollars, Bloomberg wants YOU to pay for HIS gun-control

Here it is in Bloomberg’s own words  —  "If this moment passes into memory without action from Washington, it will be a stain upon our nation of protecting the innocent, including our children....  I think it is true when you see 6- and 7-years-olds as the victim, somehow or other it goes to your heart a little more.... It's more of a 'My god, what kind of a society do we have?'  But don't think that all of the other assassinations, all of the other tragedies, all of the other massacres, or the individual shootings every day across the country, don't think that those are any less of a tragedy. Those are human beings, too."

Remember this is the very same Mayor Mike Bloomberg, who ceased being a Republican, but was still sold the Republican line upon which he won re-election by a cabal that included Brooklyn GOP Chairman Craig Eaton.

After his call for more gun control, on top of all the very restrictive laws in his super-gun-controlled city,  Bloomberg responded when confronted by a critical member of the media  who had asked him whether the mayor's position being one of the faces of the anti-gun-rights movement could be "counterproductive" because Bloomberg is the mayor from the ultra-liberal New York City , New York.  With his characteristic adenoidal twang in an especially annoying range of the organic human diapason, Bloomberg whined,  "I'm an American. I'm a human being, so I certainly have standing to say what I think."  

What the diminutive media-mogul billionaire meant was  —   I’m used to having my opinion heard above those of all ordinary people and now I have the right megaphone to be heard above everybody else in the country, including the president, who had better listen to me or else! On Friday afternoon Mayor Bloomberg had put out a statement calling on President Obama to take "immediate action" to push for legislation on the issue. However, at today’s press conference Mayor Bloomberg admitted that he had not spoken to Obama since the shootings in Connecticut.

Bloomberg used today's speech to announce a new website, “Demand A Plan”, that among other things will highlight the stories of some of those at Bloomberg’s  press conference in videos calling for gun control action. The mayor said that copies of those videos will be delivered to the members of Congress during the next session, in order to build the pressure to enact new Federal gun-control. Mayor Bloomberg is also the co-chair of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, a group of more than 700 mayoral advocates for stricter gun control.
