Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg may want to keep a closer eye on his advocacy staff, after a director of his anti-gun legislation compared the death toll from gun violence to the lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001.

Jason Rzepka, director of cultural engagement at the liberal anti-gun group Everytown For Gun Safety, made the comments at a Netroots event last week.

Everytown is an anti-gun group started by Bloomberg, the 16th richest man in the world. The organization spends $50 million per year, combining campaign contributions with field operations, and aiming to bring at least one million gun-control supporters to the polls.

So why are we a safe haven from violence for every illegal alien on the planet?

Can’t have it both ways.

Gun violence?

Let’s be honest, its mainly registered-Democrat violence.

I think it’s racist to compare inner city blacks with terrorists...

These people will say any inflammatory thing they can think of to scare people into sending them money. Then they scoff and say, “Nobody wants to take your guns.”
