Mayors Against Illegal Guns
flatwater_go:
Response from Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle:
"As Mayor of Omaha, I consistently supported your second Amendments rights. I have also consistently supported keeping illegal guns
out of the hands of criminals.
The Mayors Against Illegal Guns Coalition does not support any action that infringes upon the Amendment rights of law abiding gun
owners. This organization was created to share best practices about keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and does not threaten
those who legally purchase or possess firearms. In fact, this organization promotes laws that also protect law-abiding gun owners.
I will continue to do what I can to make our community safer by working to ensure illegal guns are off the streets and out of the hands
of those who break the law."

I stopped by Mayor Suttles office today and dropped off a 5 page letter to him explaining the facts about MAIG and Mayor Bloomberg. I included testimonials from mayors that had quit MAIG along with qoutes and statments made by Bloomberg. I also challenged the Mayor to show us in the NFOA what pro Second Amendment laws MAIG has promoted.
I'm looking forward to his explainations to my questions. Should be interesting.
We need to keep hammerin on these guys.
I'll be contacting the other Mayors shortly.

Great job, now if we could just get a few hundred more people to do that...and get some press coverage while doing it.
Come on, NFOA members, let's inundate his office with letters!!

Bloomberg's Mayoral Gun Group Losing Members
Mayors Against Illegal Guns, led by New York's Michael Bloomberg, is losing members after the National Rifle Association mounted a campaign against the group. The NRA and various gun proponents contend that the mayors' efforts represent a slippery slope.
