| A billboard truck sponsored by Mayors Against Illegal Guns began rolling its gun-control message across the country today. |
A billboard truck that began rolling across the country today advertises the estimated number of gun-related homicides since the January 8 massacre in Tucson.
It's the latest gun-control propaganda tactic by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, an East-Coast group spearheaded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Boston Mayor Thomas Manino.
The number on the truck, as of today, estimates that about 1,300 murders-by-gun have occurred in the United States since Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and 19 others were shot by suspect Jared Loughner.
The number goes up by about 34 victims a day, the mayors said in news reports and a press release put out earlier today by Bloomberg's group.
