MAYOR BLOOMBERG TO BAN EMPLOYEE TERMINATIONS TO CONTROL VIOLENCE IN NYC!
After today’s shooting of a former co-worker in the Empire State Building by a disgruntled fired employee, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced a new tactic to combat violence in his city. Bloomberg has long blamed violence on guns even though New York has a strict ban on gun ownership…except for liberal celebrities who own guns but call for gun bans. After the shootings today at the Empire State Building, which killed two people including the gunman, Bloomberg said:
“New York City, as you know, is the safest big city in the country and we are on pace to have a record low number of murders this year but we are not immune to the national problem of gun violence.
As you know, guns have a violent tendency to get up, leave their homes, and arbitrarily shoot people. This gun violence must stop. As such, we long ago banned gun ownership in New York City because of the violence perpetrated on innocent New Yorkers by these reprehensible, violent, unpredictable guns!

Maybe he should teach the police better fire arm skills or take their guns away ! What an assbag!

It’s those damn guns with legs that get up and leave their apartments that are causing all the damage. If we just chop the legs off those guns, we’d be alright.

When I got my CWP, I scored 100%. To pass, a person must score at least 70%.

Sieg Heil, Sieg Heil, Sieg Heil!

I hope the folks of NYC are happy with this POS, THAT THEY ELECTED!
So these cops shootin at the bad guy did not look beyond the bad guy as they fired their weapons??? 
First thing you are taught in any gun training, KNOW YOUR TARGET and what is beyond.

Is that his “I’m concerned and disturbed” look
or is that his “I just shit in my pants” look?

If the gun is getting up and leaving the house ‘on its own’ arbitrarily, don’t I then stop owning the gun?
I didn’t leave the gun, the gun left me?
WTF is wrong with this guy?

Can this liberal POS advertise any more with his idiotic press releases that HE WANTS to be the next president/dictator.
It was a shooting……let the chief of police respond or have the press meetings.

If they really want to control violence in New York they should start by giving this idiot his termination papers.

Having everyone drive with their headlights on until violence stops will be much more effective!

The really scary thing? The NYPD shot *better* than their historical average in that incident.
When the RAND Corp. reviewed NYPD shootings, they found that they hit armed suspects with 18% of their shots (better than 4 out of every 5 rounds missed). In this case, the scored 3 hits with 16 shots, or 18.75% accuracy.

He can use those employees originally scheduled for termination to enforce his Big Gulp ban…

How many NYC cops does it take to shoot 9 innocent bystanders standing 8′ from the perp?

Police commissioner says cops responding to Empire State Building ‘had absolutely no choice’ but to fire on innocent civilians.
I, ah, might have made that last bit up.
