New York mayor tells how Bloomberg’s group misled him
Misfit Politics 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.
What I found out later is that my name was being used in anti-gun propaganda to further the personal agenda of Mayor Bloomberg.
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.
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;
…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 “buy me off” by promising political donations in return for my continued membership.
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.

“This is not my surprised look”
LOL, BRILLIANT!
I am actually glad to see someone from New England with a backbone standing up to these dipsh*ts…
Now, I don’t mean to say that everyone from North of the Mason-Dixon line is spineless…I’m just saying they are generally not born with one, and have to have one bought and installed as an after-market upgrade.
Now, with that being said, I have some letters to write to some Arkansas congressmen about voting to give funds to Egypt.
Nanny Bloomberg strikes again!
I’m shocked. Shocked, I tell you. NOT.
TTM–not all of us “up here” are spineless liberal wimps. Matter of fact, there’s a whole state of us who can’t stand flatlanders, Massholes, and people generally scared of their own shadows.
NHSparky, glad to see that there is an Oasis in that desert of stupidity…
You know it Sparky!Live Free or Die!
Dear Mr. Maher, please learn how to use those thingees like Bing, or Google. Those will give you most of the info needed to make an intelligent decision. Or, you could just find out who contributes the most money, and search for his name, or just pay attention to the news. Bloomberg’s been all over the news with his crusade to disarm everyone but his security detail.
Leftit’s: Lyin’ for power… er, “social justice”… since 1848!
didn’t know it was an anti-gun group….. sure hope his constituents are taking note that this idiot will sign anything and is totally clueless.Her’s typical Bloomberg fodder.
Sparky – New Hampshire is listed as one of the most liberal states in the country (#10 according to Gallup in 2012), allowed unlimited immigration of Taxachusetts residents, elected Jean Shaheen and Cynthia Chase… might want to take off the holy hat, there… Love the state and married a girl from there (otherwise described as “a day which will live in infamy”) but half the people I know there could give liberal pointers to Karl Marx.
I’m not buying Mr. Maher’s story. This whole thing strikes me that since he’s finding his decision to join “Mayors Against Illegal Guns” isn’t so popular, now he’s making excuses and blaming Bloomberg – just so his constituency will like him.
Complete BS. He knew, but when the majority of citizens started to take notice he backpedaled. Had the majority come out and said it was the greatest thing since Unicorn farts he would have been first in line to tell everyone he helped feed it beans… Anyone with two functioning brain cells knew from the beginning they had a clear and aggressive anti-gun agenda… Besides, if he really is that STUPID or at a minimum clueless – he shouldn’t be re-elected.. That guy – F him…
