A Roxbury News montage of Linda Thompson, Mayor of Harrisburg, during a series of public appearances discussing guns in the City of Harrisburg.

From her Rotary Club appearance this week, the Harrisburg Hope public forum also this week, as well as two summer 2012 Public Safety briefings, Mayor Thompson gives a variety of statistics on the number of guns her Administration has taken off the streets of Harrisburg. The inconsistencies beg the question, "What is the factual number?"

During the Monday, January 7th Rotary Club meeting, Mayor Thompson said, "I always say the only way you're going to get to know the truth is by absolutely asking the mayor, and I have no reason to deny the facts. And I always say that be careful who's delivering the rumors."
