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.

YES THEY ARE A LOT MORE HONEST.
OLD IDIOT !!!!!! GO YOUR$#%&!@*HOME AND STAY THERE…….
Asswipe! Fire this ignoramus!!!
How can this$#%&!@*go to sleep at night thinking the 2nd amendment only belongs to his kind? What a moron, how did he get elected and how does he plan on being reelected.
There is No difference. Americans have the right to protect themselves as much as you have security guards protecting you. You are nothing special but a sitting member of Congress.
No double standards.
How can you, a democrat, believe that you and your ilk need armed protection when you don’t believe or like the 2nd Amendment? You are no more important than anyone else!
Hey jackass we ALL blead red.And the good lord knows we are different from politicians. Thank God for that.I wouldn’t want to be numbered among you.However I guess more people would have more reason to come gunning for a politician.
Why are these libtard politicians brains so far out in la la land ????
