MAIG lists Boston Bomber Tsarnaev on gun crime victims list

Oops

Looks like MAIG got lazy and just copied the bad list from Slate's How many people have been killed...? list. A bad list because it lumps in suicides, criminal on criminal and officer involved shootings with no context whatsoever.

So when MAIG held it's super-secret on the DL (hoping no opposition would show up) "rally" today in NH their grand list said poor Tsarnaev was a hapless victim of senseless "gun crime."

Poor Tsarnaev.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg's organization Mayors Against Illegal Guns organized an event in Concord, New Hampshire, yesterday, during which the names of victims of gun violence since Newtown were read for several hours. Included among those names: Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the Boston bombing suspect killed during a shoot-out with police. Link

Gotta check those facts within context Mikey. This is the same lazy/intentionally misleading use of facts that lumps 16-25 year old gangsters in with "children lost to guns violence." The dullard on the street reads it as every statistic was a "found daddy's gun" type accident when the truth the bulk of that number is Johnny and Dwayne fighting over a crack corner.

IT may be truer than you think.
He was shot by police after being arrested and forced to strip.
At least that's the testimony given by several eyewitnesses.
Police naturally have a different version of how he died..

S&F.

How dare you inject inconvenient detail and background which compromises MAIG's assertions. I am shocked, shocked I tell you!

MAIG's membership list reads like a who's who of crooked, indicted or out and out convicted public office holders.

Even the acronym is a lie: Mayors Against ILLEGAL Guns.. when they advocate only restricting the law abiding possessing and using legally purchased weapons.

It isnt a lie if you believe all guns should be illegal.

To toss a little more gasoline on the fire Bostons honorable mayor Thomas Menino is a proud member of MAIG.

Perhaps Menino will scold the officers for using evil guns to inflict harm on poor Tsarnaev. Just another victim of "gun crime." No doubt targeted and murdered by the evil NRA.
