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.

Damn Straight we are different, we’re Humans
Bull, If the public don’t need guns,then you don’t need them.
He is such a scumbag that I understand why he is concerned about his safety. We need to be armed to keep us safe from people like him.
The common denominator with guns and violence is democrats. Just ban democrats and the violence will stop.
You are a douche bag you dumb$#%&!@*piece of$#%&!@*you make Waters look like Einstein and she’s not that smart you idiot
We don’t need Body Guards we Our Own Homeland Security.
Yeah we’re honest
Translation: “We are important Lords and Noblemen, the serfs and the peasants are only usable and replaceable!”
And this ladies and gentlemen is the reason we need to be armed!
You are no better than anyone else. By the way you work for me and everyother American try talking to us by the way. In case you forgot we already have gun control called the second amendment.
