Has Mick changed? Because I thought for sure when he was .prez of that Council of Mayors or whatever it's called, that they called for tightening gun controls after one of the high profile shootings. :scratch:

Excellent recollection! It's surprising one of his opponents hasn't hung this albatross on him in an ad during the primary. Guess we'll have to follow the Pelosi rule to elect him and see which way he goes???

Not quite. Here's the quote and a link to the article.

But even here, at a meeting of a group that has advocated stricter gun laws for decades, there was not unanimity. Mayor Mick Cornett of Oklahoma City, a Republican, said he did not believe that the gun control proposals being discussed would “resolve the problem they’re trying to resolve.”

“There are larger issues out there, and more specific issues, and I really would like to see us get a better handle on mental health,” he said. “I think the way that has trended in the last 10 years, the way that filters out into our jails and types of violence like this needs to be addressed. I wish they’d concentrate on that.”
