Strange, I thought the Republicans were the party that liked rich people.
Rand Paul hits Hollywood on gun control - Kevin Cirilli - POLITICO.com
Sen. Rand Paul says theres a certain amount of hypocrisy that the same Hollywood celebrities and prominent politicians including President Barack Obama and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who are calling for gun control are also benefiting from armed protection themselves.
I dont begrudge any famous person like Mayor Bloomberg, or the president or the presidents family for having protection I think they all should. Theres enough crazy people out there that would attack on the right or the left. But I think when you are being protected by people who have weapons by responsible people, I cant see why you would be opposed to that for other people, Paul, a Kentucky Republican, said Thursday on Fox Newss Hannity to guest-host Eric Bolling.
He continued: Many rich Hollywood celebrities have armed guards with them at all times and many regular people who live in a poor neighborhood, who have a business in a poor neighborhood and a neighborhood that may have higher crime those people have to suffer the vicissitudes of violent crime without protection sometimes because of gun control laws. So, yes, I think there is a certain amount of hypocrisy.
