Bloomberg Anti-Gun Campaign To Air Ads

Mayor Bloomberg's nationwide campaign against illegal guns is taking to the airwaves, with the launch of a targeted television and Internet advertising campaign aimed at shaming Congress into repealing an amendment restricting access to information about guns used in crimes.

Flanked by New Jersey mayors and police officers at City Hall in Jersey City yesterday, Mr. Bloomberg said it was a coincidence he was announcing the ad campaign and the addition of 27 new mayors to his coalition two days after 32 people were shot dead at Virginia Tech. There are now 214 mayors in the coalition.

The tragedy is a terrible reminder of what can happen when guns wind up in the wrong hands, Mr. Bloomberg said. He noted that violent crime is on the rise throughout America.
