Scott Brown Supporter Mayor Michael Bloomberg Will Spend $50 Million to Fight NRA and Gun Rights

Tuftonboro (April 17, 2014)-Former NY City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the same mayor who wholeheartedly endorsed Scott Brown in 2012 for his US Senate campaign in Massachusetts, has announced that he will spend $50,000,000 to fight the National Rifle Association and gun rights groups.

Bloomberg said of the NRA,

“We’ve got to make them afraid of us.”

In 2012, when Mayor Bloomberg announced that he would host an elite fundraiser for Scott Brown, a Bloomberg spokesperson commented, “The biggest reason the mayor is supporting Senator Brown is the senator’s help on one of our biggest gun issues: opposing concealed-carry reciprocity that would let people with gun permits from rural states like Arkansas and Kentucky carry hidden handguns in New York City.”

Scott Brown returned the compliment, heaping praise upon the liberal former NY City Mayor through a campaign spokesperson, “Mayor Bloomberg is a true independent who always puts progress over politics. That’s Scott Brown’s philosophy as well.”

Senator Bob Smith responded by stating, “So Scott Brown believes that restricting the rights of gun owners is “progress” and protecting the Second Amendment is “politics“. Well Scott, I have a message for you. NH gun owners hear you loudly and very clearly and will let you know how they feel on September 9th!

The distinction has never been clearer: Mayor Bloomberg, Scott Brown and gun control advocates on one side. Senator Bob Smith, the NRA and pro-Second Amendment supporters on the other.”
