Coworker was telling me about how Lars Larson tried to question Portland Mayor Hale about his banning of firearms. I guess it was pretty good, and at one point the mayor had to turn to a security guard to answer a question. I'd like to see the transcripts, but this is what I found on Lars' FB page, which proves his ignorance on this issue.

best quote of Mayor Charlie Hales news conference today
"I'm open to a ban on posession of military style (read, semi auto sporting rifles like those used at Clackamas and Sandy Hook) weapons. I think the place to start, first, is sale, because there are many of these weapons in circulation in general, it seems that a weapon that you can't hunt with...is inappropriate for general ownership
(question/lars "Mr Mayor, you are aware those rifles are used for hunting?)
I'm not a hunter so I don't know.
If somebody can find the transcripts, I would love to read the whole thing.
