NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg Throws A Tantrum: Says Cops Should Strike Until Citizens Are Disarmed

Poor little billionaire mayor of NYC, Mike Bloomberg, is at it again! Clearly he couldn’t handle the heat he got for using the tragedy in the state of Colorado (where I happen to actually live) to push his anti-gun agenda. So how does a megalomaniac cry baby respond? By throwing a temper tantrum of course.

While on Piers Morgan show on CNN, this despotic control freak showed his true colors. When asked by Mr. Morgan: “Why do so many Americans not feel angry enough to demand further gun control?” Here’s his answer:

Well, I would take it one step further. I don’t understand why the police officers across this country don’t stand up collectively and say, we’re going to go on strike. We’re not going to protect you. Unless you, the public, through your legislature, do what’s required to keep us safe.

There you go folks. This guy, who is the mayor of the largest city in the United States, doesn’t really care about public safety. He wants to disarm you and he becomes a petulant child about it when he can’t get his way. In this excellent article from the WSJ, the author rightly tears Bloomberg apart. He writes:

And whether Bloomberg meant to suggest a real strike threat or an empty one, it seems obvious that such a move would be counterproductive. The prospect of police shirking their duty to protect the citizenry strengthens, not weakens, the case for private ownership of firearms and other tools of self-defense.

A police strike, as Bloomberg figured out a day late, is illegal in itself. Bloomberg’s strike would be for the purpose of curtailing the citizenry’s constitutional rights. The mayor urged an unlawful rebellion by government employees against their employers, the people. Since ours is a government of the people, established by the Constitution, this was nothing less than a call for insurrection.
