you know, mayor bloomberg has been one of the most vocal people.thology that the nra is going to take you out if you don't do what they say. on the conservative side there's a mythology that president obama is going to take away your guns if we sign a u.n. treaty on small arments and that he's trying to foment violence in mexico in order to get support for the assault weapons ban, and we have to put all of that aside and have a very serious conversation on what we know about human behavior when it comes to guns and how we curb gun violence period, and we have to be on the same page that we need to curb gun violence period. >> okay. anna marie, let me read you something from "the new york times" in july of last year. it's about how the nra watered down the bill congress passed in the wake of the virginia tech shooting. i'm quoting, as a condition of its support for the measure, the national rifle asoths extracted a concession. the inclusion of a mechanism for restoring firearms rights to those who lost them for mental health reasons. so the nra cons
