Mayor on : Carrying guns on a college campus is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of in my life.

Mayor on : the President's job is not just to be well-meaning. His job is to perform and protect the American people.

Mayor on : This particular event is just one in a series that happens again and again and again.

Mayor on : It's time for the President to stand up and lead ... this should be his number 1 agenda.

Happening now: Tune into to watch discuss the urgent need for immediate action to end gun violence.
