[ED: We first published this almost a year ago. But now that it looks like former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg will be getting into the Democrat presidential primary race, we’re sure that our friends in the legacy media will want to dig through everything he’s ever written or said on any topic of potential interest.]

-/-/-/-/-

Former New York Mayor and reported presidential wanna-be Michael Bloomberg held forth before a sold-out Aspen Institute crowd on Friday. Because he has billions of dollars, he draws crowds and is frequently asked his opinion on a range of topics, whether he has any expertise in the area or not.

After opining on topics such as marijuana legalization, education and poverty in the United States, the topic of “gun violence” was teed up for America’s foremost advocate of civilian disarmament.

As the Aspen Times reports:

Bloomberg claimed that 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category: male, minority and between the ages of 15 and 25. Cities need to get guns out of this group’s hands and keep them alive, he said.

“These kids think they’re going to get killed anyway because all their friends are getting killed,” Bloomberg said. “They just don’t have any long-term focus or anything. It’s a joke to have a gun. It’s a joke to pull a trigger.”

I was once male, minority, and between the ages of 15 and 25. I also owned a bunch of guns.
How did I ever manage to not go killing people? probably because I was raised better than that, and I was still afraid my dad would lead the hunt to find me.

I remember when this article first "came out" but was ignored by the media. Looks like not much has changed since then.

Unfortunately, he is stating the truth,and that does not bode well with liberals. He's digging himself a hole to be buried in and doesn't even realize it. Not that that's a bad thing. :D

Many of us were once 15-25 regardless of race, creed, or ethnicity and had a room full of guns and never hurt anyone. And I imagine that there are still many out there today. You just never hear from them because they have common sense and are being raised as human beings.
 
my opinion is: Bloomberg is just there to take out Sanders and Warren so that Hillary will be "drafted" at the convention.

Bring it on. I enjoyed nothing more than watching all the disappointment on their faces when it was a landslide. Round two should be even more fun.
 
I recall many articles about young males from single parent households with no father figure or
being raised by grandma, they all believe they will be dead before they reach age 26.

Bloomberg’s stated a fact. If Republicans had it would be racist.

Another truth.

Hey, what I do in the privacy of my own home...
Or maybe I'm just the illegitimate child of Bruce Jenner and Rachel Dolezal?
Or maybe i'm just an everyday guy with a modest genetic tan due to heritage originating from the once-disputed soutwest territory and its early spanish settlers.

"fact" is kind of a stretch considering the vast majority of minority people, male or otherwise, young or otherwise, don't actually go around killing people. Do the math... If half of all minorities killed just one minority, there would be no minorities.
But you are correct in that if a Republican had said it, it would be international news. Bloomberg knew what he said was wrong and racist though, which is why he had the story crushed and the recordings of the event suppressed.
 
In NYC, according to NYPD victim Ann's witness statements, over 90% of all violent crime is committed by young black and Hispanic males.
But that doesn't mean that over 90% of young black and Hispanic males area criminals.
Bloomberg iis a typical liberal. Punish everyone for the crimes of a few.
Stop and Frisk was wrong too. It doesn't matter if the result was lower crime.
You don't submit to a police state for the illusion of security.

Unfortunately they start reproducing at like 12 or 14 and so the dependency cycle self perpetuates.
