Sanders: "Mayor Bloomberg is unvetted"

[Blue_true]

77. What about national legistlators that allowed guns to flood into

big cities from states that had lax gun laws? Biden is very culpable there and Bernie is totally exposed given his stout opposition to bills that would have limited guns and regulated them. Big city Mayors were left with a problem, allow guns to stay on the streets, of remove those guns from the streets somehow - Stop and Frisk was a brutish way to do that.

I challenge you, if guns were flooding into your city and you were Mayor, HOW would you remove them and reduce gun violence? It is easy to look at a policy in a detached, academic mode and hindsight is always perfect, my challenge to you, if you were a Mayor in the moment, how would you deal with guns being trafficked around your city?

I think that Bloomberg should be really agressive with Biden and Sanders if they attack him on Stop and Frisk, lay THEIR blame for the problem that was being dealt with at their feet. The only ones that can cleanly criticize Stop and Frisk are Warren (she was not in politics) and Buttigieg (he was a small city Mayor). Sanders in particular has no right to criticize Stop and Frisk and Biden to a large extent can't due to their failure to come up with national legistlation that forced states with lax gun laws to take responsibility for fixing the problems their laws created in big cities.
