Rangel: Guns for me, not for thee
The Daily Caller‘s Kerry Picket cornered Charlie Rangel, a Democrat Congressman from New York City for a comment on the revelation that four New York Police Department members were arrested for selling gun permits for favors.
When asked by The Daily Caller his thoughts on the difficulty of getting a concealed carry permit in New York City and how rare it is for such permits to be issued by the NYPD, Rangel replied, “I’m glad to hear you say that very few people get it.”
“We don’t need that many guns,” he continued.
[…]
“Law-abiding citizens just shouldn’t have to carry a gun. You’re not gonna push me in that direction,” he said, standing just five feet from a Capitol Police officer, who stood at his post by the House Speaker’s Lobby.
TheDC noted to Rangel he and other members of Congress are protected by armed members of the U.S. Capitol Police.
“Well that’s a little different. I think we deserve–I think we need to be protected down here.” Rangel laughingly insisted.
That kind of thinking is exactly the reason that Rangel and his fellow perfumed princes of the US Congress need protection from the rest of us. They forget that their job is to represent our interests and they need protection from the very people they are sworn to serve.
Rangel has always thought that he was better than us plebs – he never thought that he should have to pay the taxes the rest of us go to jail for avoiding. Warner Todd Huston reminds us that Rangel, a Korean War Veteran, once said that “he was “never moved” by the death of a U.S. soldier–unless they were black.”

Bunch of wrinkled old dried up pieces of crap. Every one of em’.
“All Animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
Its getting to be time to start making a lot of bacon and ham slices.
Mmmmmm, bacon!
Hell yeah.
He’s POS. And that’s all I have to say about that.
His life is more important than the lives of the people who vote for him? H’mmmmmm.
Sounds like the mantra of just about every other damned politician up there in that stink hole.
If ever the United States needs an enema, surely they will stick the hose in at Dead Center DC.
He’s an asshole. Fire his ass.
Amen!
Charlie Rangel, you can’t have it both ways. MSG Eric, you got it right. These guys need to get a clue.
I am right once in a while.
Just another self-centered POS as well as living breathing proof of how RIGHT Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) was when he said “Politicians and diapers both need to be changed often and for the same reason”.
I’m kinda glad when asshats like Rangel speak their minds. It gives me hope people that are on the fence about voting will take his comments into consideration before they mark their ballot.
They won’t. He could be poking a puppy in the middle of Harlem and he still would win reelection by a 50-point margin. And does.
I was referring to him as a measure of central tendency for democrat thought processes and the upcoming presidential race. Harlem is habituated and/or simply suffers from learned helplessness and won’t likely change anytime soon.
“he was “never moved” by the death of a U.S. soldier–unless they were black.” And that’s not racist???
Nope. Only white people can be racist. I thought you knew that.
The sad part is that progressive racialists think that way..
To them anyone who is White, works for a living and wants to keep as much as they can of what they’ve earned is a flaming racist.
Don’t forget heterosexual too.
Nice teeth. You could bite an apple through a picket fence with those choppers.
Good ol’ Cholly Rangel-convicted of multiple ethics violations by a House panel, still re-elected by huge margins by his New York constituency.

I looked it up. There’s huge, and there’s North Korean type numbers.
Dude pulls 90+ percent on a regular basis.
But on the bright side, he’s retiring, and then I’m sure he’ll get to see how difficult it is being among the “little people” again and having to follow the same rules as the rest of us.
(Do I really need a /sarc tag?)
Yeah, I doubt his hotel properties in the Virgin Islands will be as nice and spritzy without his monthly paycheck.
Poor guy will have to survive off his pension.
He was the same guy who said that fire in Brooklyn was their “own personal 9/11” too right?
Sorry, Charlie, but you don’t deserve any more protection than my wife and kids. So if they don’t deserve it, you don’t either.
This asshole should be the poster child for term limits! What a fucking turd and yes that comment was racist don’t give me any context bullshit!
Well what do you know he has the same BS coming out of his mouth and the Nutz running California no suprise here
Are you feeling ok Skippy? You seem to have lost your emotional touch.
Up all night last night battling Miller moths infestation
Maybe this will be helpful, Skippy. http://www.theprairiehomestead.com/2014/05/miller-moths.html
Bug guy is taking take of it it’s bigger then I thought it was Lol
I live nowhere near their turf, and one of those nasty things landed on my west window yesterday. Must have been in its late stage, as it fluttered and fell off the windowpane.
Try the bug repellents that are natural substances, too: cedar, lavender, all those others mentioned in that article. They work.
As I see it,cocksuckers like him who make such comments are merely representing the attitudes of their constituency. Fuck him and those who keep voting for his dumb ass.
His constituents don’t care what he says. They think he’s a hero and if not for him Harlem would be 10 times worse. Even though it still has severely shitty areas.
Same as many black people and Obama. They aren’t any better off, even worse in some cases, but they still think he’s God walking the earth. Anything that went wrong was because of the Evil Republicans.
See a crooked politician, look at the people who put him there for 40+ years. Nuff said.
Charlie. . . ? Charlie. . . ? oh, THAT Charlie! Tax Cheatin’ Charlie.
Yeah, I listen to him about as much as I listen to O’Bozo. I listen to the yapping of my dog more. Usually when my dog barks, there’s someone at the front door.
I would say this makes me think less of him, but you can’t go down from zero.
Negative values are a thing in mathematics, you know.
Certainly not when it comes to politicians bank accounts. They keep adding positive numbers.
Time for my random TAH Book Report. Okay, here goes. I read Term Limits by Vince Flynn. It was a very good book. Mentioning it here for no particular reason. None at all. Out.
I did, too. And, I agree, a very good book. Just sayin’.
Ex-OS2 has a one word description of people like this. What is it again, sir?
Rangel is my go to guy for these kind of issues. He was only found guilty of 11 ethics charges, no need to protect ourselves from power mongering maniacal race baiters like him. Surely nothing could go wrong if we just trusted them with absolute power.
You Gun Nutz just don’t have any faith in your fellow man.
Isn’t that the same dick weasel that keeps trying to reinstate the draft?
Yep, that’s him.
Put him at the front of the line, pencil-whip his medical, and send him to boot camp.
Because it won’t effect his family or any of his business associates children. They’ll get special exemptions via Charlie Rangel’s signature.
Pandering, racist piece of shit!
Sorry OS2 but I’m using ur response: FUCKING COCKSUCKER!
Ya know, I hope the rest of America is, or is getting as tired of these career criminals, I mean politicians, as I am.
For quite some time I have been hearing, as I’m sure you have, that we need to clean all the bastards out and start new with someone who is not part of the beltway. Well, we seem to finally have that with Trump, and half of the conservative side are against him and want more of the same ol shit. Don’t get me wrong, he’s not the guy I wanted to begin with, but he’s the one we have now. Honestly, I’m liking him more and more. However, I can’t underestimate the supidity of the people that put the current jack ass in office twice, so I remain nervous.
BUT, my faith in people is returning. Especially after England has decided to give the EU the finger, finally. It may be England, but if they are beginning to turn their country around, maybe we soon will too. If so, the Charlie Rangles better look out.
Rant over!
Every time that asshole or one in Congress like him opens his mouth I think “Animal House”
Note the key words
“…we deserve…”
The rest of us do not.
I dub thee, Chuckie Antionette.
