Bloomberg Ad Will Feature Mother Who Lost Her Son to Gun Violence

The ad will reportedly feature Calandrian Simpson Kemp, the mother of the late 20-year-old George Kemp Jr., who will talk about her son being killed with a firearm in 2013.

On Thursday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe showed a “first look” at Bloomberg’s gun control ad. The spot starts with Simpson Kemp saying, “George started playing football when he was four years old. He would wake up every Saturday, ready for the game. That became our life. He had aspirations about going to the NFL.”

“On a Friday morning, George was shot, George didn’t survive,” she says.
