If you didn't read the sponsor line at the end of the commercials running on Tucson TV you wouldn't know that they were produced and paid for by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and his anti-gun group, Mayors Against Illegal Firearms. The commercials begin by telling us that Senator Jeff Flake is doing Arizona hunters a disfavor and making everyone unsafe by opposing background checks for all transfers of firearms. There have been reports that Bloomberg paid $12 million out of his own pocket for this series of TV ads, targeting four key senators that could block the background check bill he wants. I have never met Sen. Flake, but I did vote for him and I'm glad that he has taken a stand against so-called 'universal background checks." A better name for what Bloomberg wants is "National Gun and Gun Owners Registration." Universal background checks will give them exactly that. Bill Quimby
