Picture a man who believes that he is better than his peers. A man who believes that he is important enough to warrant special protection but that everyone else should be prohibited from taking even basic steps to protect themselves.
Such a man exists, and his name is Charlie Rangel.
A longtime Congressman from New York, Rangel has agitated on behalf of virtually every left-wing hobby horse since the 1970’s. He is pro-abortion, pro-open borders, and vehemently anti-Second Amendment.
Notice how I didn’t say he is anti-gun. That’s because he isn’t, as he made abundantly clear in an interview with The Daily Caller. Questioned by the outlet about the recent scandal involving well-connected individuals bribing NYPD officials in order to obtain the city’s rarely-granted concealed carry permits, Rangel gloated over how hard it was for New Yorkers to carry firearms within the city.
When his interviewer countered that he and his fellow congressmen were protected by armed police officers, however, the congressman offered this reason for the apparent discrepancy between his politics and his personal situation: politicians like him “need to be protected” because their situation is a “little different” from the average citizen.

Another senile old fool
He’s absolutely right!! Politicians are different, they are the most hated people on Earth!!
I though Rangel lost his position over some crimes committed?
You let these public “service” welfare cases stay in office long enough and they start to think they know how to run your life and you know nothing.
Ignorant Asshole
And this is EXACTLY why we do need guns ….
poster child for term limits as well as age limits. Our Congress is way to old.
I beg your pardon sir. You forgot who your bosses are.
Don’t tell me what I need, PAY YOUR TAXES!!!
