Forget Getting Guns Off the Streets--How About Getting Street Off Our Guns?

Mayor Street joins a group of 50 mayors in Washington today pushing for new strategies to stanch the flow of illegal guns into American cities.

With Pennsylvania hamstrung "with some of the most lax gun laws in all of the country," Street said, the mayors are pushing for "tougher laws to control illegal guns... . This is a national movement to deal with the proliferation of guns."

The coalition, known as Mayors Against Illegal Guns, formed last April in New York. In September, the coalition joined Street for a lobbying push in Harrisburg.

With President Bush to offer his State of the Union address tonight to a Congress now controlled by Democrats, Street said that he's hoping for a better gun-control environment.
He's got his wish. It's already started--despite the predictions by some that all those "gun-friendly Democrats" will keep it from happening.

  1. Am almost doubtful that this country will even make it to 2008. Which would have been the last hope for a peaceful turnaround. Think that the Republic will be completely destroyed by the commdemnazi's this year.....

  2. watch out for 'staged' massacres...the 1996 'Prt Arthur massacre' in Oz was done by Oz intelligence services acting with overseas mercenary groups in order to implement wide-sweeping gun confiscation....the 'controlled media' then pinned the 'massacre' on 'a lone nut patsy'!

    see here!

  3. Possibly, jimbo!, but the undisguised racism and hatred manifested in your blogs makes having faith in your opinions difficult for me.

    aren't you indulging in some 'ad hominem' here, squire?

    surely my opinions on 'race' have little or nothing to do with the material @ that link i posted?

    the facts speak for them-selves!

    Martin Bryant is a man who has been unjustly convicted and imprisoned for an horrendous crime!

    How convenient for 'the powers that be' that he is also mentally retarded: and, so: cannot adequately speak up or defend him-self!
