“It isn’t gun control.” – Michael Bloomberg, former mayor of New York City
Recently, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg promoted his new $50 million gun control campaign on NBC’s “Today” show, in an aggressive financial push to combat the National Rifle Association’s influence on gun policies.
Bloomberg stated that he plans to use the money to merge his Mayors Against Illegal Guns (criminals will always have guns) and Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America into a new group called “Every Town for Gun Safety.”

At no point in history has any government ever wanted its people to be defenseless for any good reason

Bloomberg is just plain batshit crazy. That’s why liberals relate to him.
Gee, this looks familiar....
That's the government under Bloomberg tagging restaurants telling the public to do or not do business with them under the guise of "cleanliness" which is code for "paying off the city". "A" rating means Bloomberg says the public can eat here. "C" rating, usually given to minority restaurant owners, means "Bloomberg says do not eat here".

What made Hitler possible wasn’t genetics, it was circumstances & opportunity.
Lots of half-pint Hitlers afoot in our society. Nanny Bloomberg just happens to be the wealthiest.
Megalomanical control freaks who think it’s their way or the highway - NO shortage of those.
Weaken our democratic institutions the way democracy was weakened in Germany by 1932, and there WILL be dictatorship here!
How can a mope like this get rich? He is taking his money and flushing it down the paycheck liberal rat hole. My only question, of the people he ends up hiring how many of those people will be on the public record as against gun ownership while owning a gun themselves?
The actions of B’berg’s organization tell you clearly what his real purpose is. He is trying to squelch disagreement. He sent mom’s to an NRA convention as his first big action. The NRA is the number one organization for gun safety and protection of people from criminal harm. If B’berg was interested in safety, he would go after the sources of crime and threats to people’s safety. Instead, his focus is on political opposition and the NRA is arguably the most effective American organization in the political arena. The NRA has been successful in the face of tremendous opposition in recent years. The GOP and conservative organizations could learn from the NRA.
As transparent as his actions are, I suspect many people will believe B’berg’s group is actually interested in public safety. A nation cannot survive that extent of naivete.
If the Jewish population of Hitler’s Germany had not given up their firearms they would not have had to take so many train rides and showers. JMHO!
They worked, for a time. The difference between an "A" rating of "90+" and a "B" rating of "89.5-" was immense, basically, it was the difference between "OK to eat here" and "You're putting your health at risk. And don't even think of looking in the bathrooms!".
Then, magically a couple of years later, ALL of the restaurants started receiving "A" grades. Many places were at "98" out of "100" or better. And I've seen a double handful at "100.5" and even "104". Which must be pretty hard to get on a scale of 100....especially at a mediocre fast food joint like Taco Bell.
Liberals would say: "See!! See!! Our program WORKS! All of these filthy restaurants have cleaned up their act!"
Pragmatic Conservatives (like myself) say "Really? Every single restaurant is perfectly acceptable to eat in? Who's getting paid off??"
In the books of Daniel and Revelation, God uses ‘beasts’ to describe kingdoms or governments operating under the authority of malevolent ‘principality and powers’ (demonic spirits) operating in high places, arising do to spiritual wickedness,
When these spirits increase their hold over a region/country/people, they will ultimately condense this power into smaller groups or even into an individual (becoming nothing less than an evil demonic tyrant despite how much the world follows after) so for example the world can end up with an evil beast system such as Nazi Germany that brought death and destruction to millions, one man couldn’t do it alone but that spirit was very much coalesced into adolf hitler, who later had a fatal head wound, and then that particular beast appeared to die,
But these beasts do not die,they just change modify and next time can come in like a lamb instead of a dragon, the world is more ‘nuanced’ now, with instant communications and media manipulators to tell us 7x24 what is correct to think and believe and do,
All they require is another place to rise again and spiritually willing hosts,
I believe its too late to vote them out of office in this country, there are not enough of us awake that understand what we battle against,
They can only be fought against wearing spiritual armor and with much prayer,
They do love their little astroturf games, don’t they? If you can read the desperately earnest “Every Town For Gun Safety” out loud without laughing you’re a better man than me.
It’s absolutely ridiculous, I grew up in NYC from the 1960s to the 1990s well before any of this Nazi-esque “ratings” system ever started, and not ONCE did I ever get food poisoning or even a belly ache, and I use to eat in some out of the way places in Chinatown where they got strange looking animals hanging in the windows lol. It’s all about fascism, it really is and it absolutely infuriates me that whole lettering system. What RIGHT does the government have to tell the public “Do not do business with this person because WE say he is no good”? F them!! Seriously! That is stuff straight out of the Nazi handbook “Do not do business with these people because we say Jews are no good” Same issue going on here in New York city, no surprise whatsoever that the minority owned restaurants get the lower ratings. Why? Because they don’t make tons of money.
That is Bloombergs REAL legacy, NO different from this....
Unless the commies have an absolute monopoly on power, there always exists the means to oppose them violently if needed. They won’t stand for that.
One of the first things Hitler did when coming to power was to have all guns registered. Once the lists were compiled he then sent his goons to confiscate the guns of those who might not be loyal. Later he confiscated the rest. Soon only the govt had guns, the rest is history.
And let us not forget the second word in NAZI translates to Socialist.
