Mike Bloomberg takes on the NRA, Streeter cartoon

mike bloomberg takes on the NRA

The idea is sound, Mike Bloomberg is going to try and knock down the NRA with grass roots organizing rather than just throwing money at it. Much like the success of Mothers Against Drunk Drivers. MADD. I would think this approach would work, after all, there are far more mothers who lost children to guns than drunk drivers.

The acronym could be Mothers Against Guns, MAGS.

There are a few problems with the idea. Though Mike Bloomberg is a rich white Republican, he is a New York Jew which does does not play well in the heartland of Kansas. Marionville, Kansas Mayor Daniel Clevenger don’t like Jews either

Then of course there has never been a well funded organization to promote drunk drivers as there is with the NRA. Nor is there the passion and the enthusiasm of millions of Americans consumed by the fear that drives guns and all the subsequent violence. Gun Enthusiasts don’t have much going in their lives other than the guns. It is who they are. Like a bad religion…

I wish Mr Bloomberg well, and this is sure to get him a good room in Heaven if nothing else. Or so he says.
