Mayors Against Illegal Guns
flatwater_go:
NFOA, thanks for the alert. I sent my comments off today:
Mayor _______,
I am urging you to reassess and resign your membership in Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG). As is often the case in politics, things are not what they may seem with this organization.
Mayors Against Illegal Guns was founded and is funded by anti-gun activist billionaire and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. His national group of anti-gun mayors has repeatedly lobbied Congress to further restrict the rights of law abiding firearm owners.
MAIG has lobbied against national reciprocity of state Right-to-Carry permits, against much-needed reform of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE), for regulating gun shows out of existence, and for repealing the Tiahrt Amendment that protects the privacy rights of law-abiding gun owners and limits disclosure of sensitive firearm trace data.
A detailed analysis of MAIG can be found on the NRA website: http://www.nraila.org/Issues/FactSheets/Read.aspx?id=255&issue=011
Mayor Michael Bloomberg created "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" as a front group to lobby Congress, to oppose important pro-gun reforms and support new federal gun control restrictions. With its very misleading name, some mayors have joined without realizing the group's strong anti gun agenda.
I urge you to support law-abiding gun owners in Nebraska by publicly disassociating with Michael Bloomberg's ?Mayors Against Illegal Guns.?
Thank you for your time.

Make sure and let them know you are a proud member of the NFOA. It's time they knew about the NFOA.
I'm going to deliver at least two letters in person this week.

The mayors who joined Bloombergs anti-gun group and donated monies from our taxes should be recalled and the reason why some mayors quit the group because I heard thru the grapevine and I do not know if it is true or not that the mayors will be held as an accessories to a felony because of Bloombergs people going out and making staw handgun buys. And using phony ids at the same time. rich17z@cox.net. I told the same to the recepionist for Mayor Suttle and she didnt know what a straw purchase was. Same with his hotline peoples. And we are paying taxes for these goofs?????? TIME FOR A RECALL. Get the petions started.
huskergun:
Hopefully the petitions will be out by Dec. Those people at his office have no cluewhat the hell they are doing. Just like Suttle. I think allot of the drop outs just found out the true agenda of MAIG...GUN CONTROL.
