WTF?
yep, that is what most of us do.
It is attitude that separates the doers from the takers. The doers are not resentful of the rich. They want to be like them and when they are they want it to mean something.

So when the cops shoot him do you think we'll read about it, and if we do how will the story read?
That guy was a lawyer? I figured he was asking for trouble with what he was saying. The police aren't going to forget about him, that's for sure.
They may or may not be rich b/c they worked their arses off... but they have a right to have what they have without being persecuted for that. At least the NO rich isn't whining that gov't isn't doing enough for them. God bless them for paying for their own armed guards.
Hey, lawyers can be self sufficient people too.
Nobody, except maybe the touchy feely stripe of gun grabbers gives a rat's patootie if they pay for armed guards, in lieu of being armed themselves. What we object to is folks not being able to function as their own armed guards, without a license from the state (or even with a license to carry concealed). That's the problem. The violation of both the Second Amendment and it's counterpart in the Louisiana constitution, is what we object to.
