Bloomberg Won't Walk the Talk





New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has refused to call for the resignation of Jackson, Miss., mayor Frank Melton from public office or to oust him from the Mayors Against Illegal Guns coalition following Melton's conviction on three separate weapons charges. NSSF director of public affairs Ted Novin called Bloomberg's lack of action "hypocritical" in light of his professed concern over the use of illegal guns. Last week, NSSF challenged Bloomberg to call for Melton's resignation and to join the firearms industry in cooperative efforts to curb the criminal acquisition of illegal guns. A spokesperson for the mayor demonstrated an unfortunate lack of knowledge about the ongoing debate between NSSF and Bloomberg when she said NSSF "should be working with us to help keep illegal guns out of the hands of criminals." Repeated attempts to engage the mayor and educate him about industry programs such as Don't Lie for the Guy have been rebuffed.
