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.

Screw you!
That is the problem with these idiots, they believe they are royalty and we are their servants.
Been in washing to long
Crooked politicians need to fear.
Ok. So if we are different from you politicians, quit trying to sell us on the propaganda that you are know what’s best for us because you are average folk just like us!
The second amendment was written to protect us from people just like you!
Stupid
You right citizens are different than politicians most citizens are honest and pay their taxes and pay their bills on time and don’t take money from people they don’t know. Most politicians are dishonest as Democratic party and Republicans help prove I’ll keep my guns you keep your bodyguard you need them
Idiot
mmmm …. yea … I’m thinking he’s right ….
