Is a politician's life worth more than yours?

In light of the recent laws regarding firearms in the state of NY one has to ask this question. Our politicians are often escorted by police or armed bodyguards who carry sem-automatic weapons with "high capacity" magazines.

Now one has to ask, why is that ok to protect them but you are not allowed to do the same to protect you?

Not easily. Millions of dollars and months of campaigning were spent to aid millions of people to come to their decision to vote. A Senate election is genuinely huge and very important to its state.

Do you think that's really the message that's being sent, or do you think it's because it's much more likely that multiple kooks would like to take a shot at the politician than at the average citizen?

If you're looking for something to be outraged about, then the level of health care they receive relative to the average citizen would be a better topic.

The Secret Service carries full auto weapons, including the P90. Ergo, Congress has already decided the President is more valuable than Pete's self-aggrandizing ass.

Wow, the royalty deciding the royalty is above the pesants. That's shocking.

of course a politicians life is worth more. It's worth a LOT more. I know it's not right, but it's the truth.

Reminds me of the day Rahmbo was pimping Chicago public schools, and one of the reporters asked him why he had just enrolled his kids in a private school. I don't remember the exact quote, but it was basically, "That's my business. Next question."

****ing ****. He actually makes me miss Daley.

Not everyone will understand your sarcasm. There's at least a few on here that think that since the govt has nuclear weapons, the 2nd Am gives a right of private ownership of such weapons.
