The truth about MAIG.

A former MAIG member exposes the truth. But then, we knew this. Bloomberg and his minions know they can't control us until we are disarmed.

I’m the mayor of one of the largest cities in the Hudson Valley, just 90 minutes north of New York City. I’m a life member of the National Rifle Association and a former member of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, or MAIG, started by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg in 2006.

I’m no longer a member of MAIG. Why? Just as Ronald Reagan said of the Democratic Party, it left me. And I’m not alone: Nearly 50 pro-Second Amendment mayors have left the organization. They left for the same reason I did. MAIG became a vehicle for Bloomberg to promote his personal gun-control agenda — violating the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens and taking resources away from initiatives that could actually work to protect our neighborhoods and save precious lives. […]

I like the "former" part. There are a lot of mayors in this country that need to open their eyes. They think they are doing good when the truth is, they are supporting the trampling of our rights.

It did not take long to realize that MAIG’s agenda was much more than ridding felons of illegal guns; that under the guise of helping mayors facing a crime and drug epidemic, MAIG intended to promote confiscation of guns from law-abiding citizens. I don’t believe, never have believed and never will believe that public safety is enhanced by encroaching on our right to bear arms, and I will not be a part of any organization that does.

Bravo John Tkazyik. You have taken the high road.

Here's a group;



Yeah, because the response time for the police isn't any where near as fast as the turd trying to break in. I'll call 911, right after I investigate. They can come clean up the mess and write the report. The SCOTUS has ruled time and again that the police have no duty to protect anyone. Their duty is to the public at large.
