Bloomberg is the best we've got in a bad situation

This is what America needs right now, unfortunately: a rich counterbalance to the NRA's 4 million members and, more importantly, the gun & ammo manufacturers that bankroll the NRA, and hence Congressional election campaigns.

Don't like it?  Then fix Congressional campaign finance laws, you dumb "money equals speech" Republicans!

If the American people, and even NRA members, had their way, we'd have universal background checks already.

In the meantime, since the voice of the American people and NRA members means squat, thank goodness for super-rich Mayor Bloomberg who is willing to pour his millions into doing the right thing.
