Good for the Mayor of Rockford, Illinois for calling out hypocrisy and dropping out of Bloomberg's Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG).
As can be seen in the Daily Caller's write-up, in dropping out of the organization Mayor Morrissey noted that “As the original mission swayed, that’s when I decided that it was no longer in line with my beliefs. …So that’s why I dropped out.” He further explained that “The focus should not be against law-abiding citizens. We should be focusing our enforcement on folks who have no right to carry a gun, concealed or otherwise.”
By noting this, Morrissey exposes the bait and switch that Bloomberg, MAIG and, in fact, the Obama Administration have attempted to pull on the American people. There is the public face that preys on tragedy and plays to the ignorant and uninformed; the "Who could not be against illegal guns" that kill people face. Then, behind the scenes - but clear to those who see it - is the ultimate agenda of eliminating all gun ownership. In the end, to Bloomberg, all guns are illegal guns (except those carried by his PSD). Why this is so important one can debate - but regardless of the reason, its ultimate end would be to leave those who follow the law largely defenseless.
Add this to the fact that Bloomberg, a billionaire on a mission, is using public funds/resources to support his pet project and we begin to see the agenda for what it is; manipulation and power-grabbing. This is a little man, a little despot, with a lot of money who wants to tell others how to live and manipulate others into supporting his agenda. It is sad enough to believe that someone could be capable of using their own millions to change the nature of a nation, but when it becomes clear they are actually using money raised from tax payers to push a personal agenda, it becomes ludicrous and criminal. Time for a new group; People Against Illegal Mayors (PAIM; copyright, me, now).
Mayor Morrissey deserves profound thanks from all law-abiding gun owners for his willingness to not only leave the organization but for doing so in a visible way while revealing the true purpose of the organization.
