Misfit Politics<\/a> has a letter from Brian Maher, the mayor of Walden, New York which tells how he was hoodwinked into joining the Michael Bloomberg group of “Mayors Against Illegal Guns”. He tells how he was convinced to sign a “petition” calling for safer communities, which of course, being a politician, he did.<\/p>\n

What I found out later is that my name was being used in anti-gun propaganda to further the personal agenda of Mayor Bloomberg.<\/p>\n

The organization never asked for permission or asked for approval to use my name to promote their agenda. Never was any information disclosed to me about the organization being in favor of gun control or that they would use my position as Mayor to spend millions of dollars to try to take away the rights of legal gun owners.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is not my surprised look. But then Mayor Maher, tried to get out of the organization that he says that he didn’t join in the first place;<\/p>\n

…it took several months to contact the organization as they concealed information about the people behind the group. After several attempts and requests to be removed, I did finally receive a call from a representative of the organization attempting to \u201cbuy me off\u201d by promising political donations in return for my continued membership.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Still not surprised. It’s characteristic of the anti-gun people to lie, obfuscate and dodge the truth, becuase, after all, we’re talking about the way they feel about themselves, not any sort of facts or connection to reality. The same way they fear large sodas and baby formula, they fear guns enough to make shit up. Buncha cowards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
