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.

Senile ass
Exactly they do not have armed guards or secret service for protection of the Looney and criminals, they need more guns and fire arm protection to make up for lack of armed security.
Asshole
another IDIOT in congress who should have been in jail long ago.
Perfect target a bullit between his fucking eyes
Yes Charlie most citizens are honest not like politicians but still need guns to protect themselves from dishonest citizens and politicians!
… excellent! .. tell us more about these two sets of rules that you’re pushing on the People …
That’s not what the constitution says! You need arm guards because you know your lies and criminality will give you away!
Yes we are. We are not liars or corrupt. We also love America and hate communists.
Shut up Charlie, you’ve become to stupid to speak anymore.
