Bill Brandt (Justice of the Peace candidate), is now bragging about being endorsed by Richard Ward, the Gun Grabbing Mayor of Hurst, Texas! Hurst Mayor Richard Ward is well known for using his position as Mayor of Hurst to promote Michael Bloomberg’s anti-gun agenda, and help lobby for anti-gun laws nationwide! 

Richard Ward is one of only seven Texas Mayors to sign onto Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG), a coalition of over 1,000 mayors that support gun control.  In an appearance on “Meet the Press,” Bloomberg announced that his intent is to counter the influence of the NRA.

When Richard Ward joined MAIG he signed the following statement of principle: "Keep lethal, military-style weapons and high capacity ammunition magazines off our streets."

In 2009 MAIG successfully lobbied against the enactment of the "Thune Amendment," which would have allowed interstate concealed carry of firearms by individuals who hold valid concealed carry permits (either issued by their home state or another state) in much the same way that our drivers licenses are recognized by other states.  Our Mayor supported this action by MAIG saying:

"...I do not want one state to be able to force another by federal law to allow them to carry a concealed weapon into another state ..."

(Richard Ward, Oct, 10th 2009)

Mayor Patricia Shontz (R) of Madeira Beach, Florida wrote, “I am withdrawing [from MAIG] because I believe the MAIG is attempting to erode all gun ownership, not just illegal guns.  Additionally, I have learned that the MAIG may be working on issues which conflict with legal gun ownership.”  She went on to say, “It appears the MAIG has misrepresented itself to the Mayors of America and its citizens.  This is gun control, not crime prevention.”

In a 2009 statement Mayor Richard Ward expressed his own opposition to the NRA saying: "…the NRA has totally brainwashed its members." (Richard Ward; Oct. 12, 2009)

Now Richard Ward, the Gun Grabbing Mayor of Hurst, is endorsing Bill Brandt for Justice of the Peace!  

Don't be fooled by Gun Grabber endorsed Brandt, support the true Conservative Lenny Lopez for Justice of the Peace precinct 3.
