Too bad people on the gun rights side have jobs and lives and stuff and don't have time to go protest things like this. I'm sure if local elected officials were meeting with the NRA the lefties would be out in force crying and wailing and blocking streets.

A whole hour and a half? Not going to be much of a discussion.

But we already knew that.

I’m surprised that he’d actually lower himself to being seen in fly-over country.

I think Bloomberg's group is responsible for sponsoring the "NEWS" reports on MPR that take the victim's of the mass murders, single people out and do an in depth interview with friends and family members to "humanize" the tradgedy by introducing the victims with an examination of their life and whose lives they have touched.

The down stroke is that senseless gun violence has deprived the world of a remarkable person, guns are bad.
