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.

What about the MS 13 gang killing people on Long Island you dumbass
This pig is been in Congress is 1971 he’s an asshole
Citizens are different from politicians, it’s against the law for citizens to do insider trading while for politicians it is not, we have to pay our taxes and we know of a few politicians that didn’t, we go to work everyday when politicians work about half the years while taking in all kind of money, we want what’s best for this country while most politicians want what is best for them, Americans were forced to pay for obama care while congress exempted themselves so they wouldn’t have to pay the penalties, so yes we are different from a politician which I am proud of.
What an idiot!
He is apparently unaware that free men remain that way BECAUSE they have the right to keep and bare arms, Not at the whim of some government type who fear an armed society. That way lies serfdom.

Crazy old man
People need to protect themselves as much as any politician.
