In reply to the discussion: Anti-gun Charleston WV Mayor exhibits behavior that I spoke about in a recent post. [View all]villager
(26,001 posts)47. Your link isn't embedded, by the way....

The mayor may have made a slight, boneheaded slip in front of kids (who were in an office with other adults? It's hard to tell) But don't you be that way either, like the rightwing with Hilary's emails. It's no big deal, and this "gotcha" video is one going viral on rightwing websites like Glen Beck's.

Again, you're kind of being an absolutist, scaring yourself off from an actual discussion...

I support *all* common-sense gun safety measures. That's only reasonable.

Do you have a credible, non-rightwing source for this? It's all Moonies & Glenn Beck with you folks
