did you MISS this:
In May 1994, as the battle over the ban on certain semi-automatic firearms reached its height, Giuliani threw his support behind the ban. On the eve of the final vote, he noted that so-called assault weapons have no legitimate purpose. When the ban passed, Giuliani commented that this is an important step toward curtailing the indiscriminate proliferation of guns across the nation.
When a lunatic attacked innocent civilians at the Empire State Building in 1997, Giuliani used the tragedy to again push for gun control beyond his citys limits: We need a federal law that bans all assault weapons, and if in fact you do need a handgun, you should be subjected to at least the same restrictionsand really stronger onesthat exist for driving an automobile. ... Congress needs to pass uniform licensing for everyone carrying a gun.
