San Diego County is hosting a series of 'listening sessions' to hear from residents about curbing 'gun violence.' But SDCGO2A warns the sessions are 'political theater,' and NathanFletcher is using them to enact pre-planned gun control policies.
SAN DIEGO – San Diego County officials want residents to share their thoughts about gun violence during upcoming “listening sessions” around the county.
The effort is part of an assessment of the issue in the region. The goal is to identify what services and programs are necessary to reduce gun violence, officials said. Michael Schwartz, from the San Diego County Gun Owners PAC, says the “listening sessions” are simply political theater. Schwartz explained on KUSI’s Good Evening San Diego that elected officials like Supervisor Nathan Fletcher already have their mind made up, and they are holding these sessions to be able to say they listened to the people, to enact pre-planned gun control policies, even if that’s not what the people said at these listening sessions.• Today at 6 p.m. at Remnant Church in San Diego, 3060 54th St.• Dec. 7 at 6 p.m. at One Safe Place in San Marcos, 1050 Los Vallecitos Blvd.
