And the Gun Grabbing 'thou hypocrite' of the Week is...

Brock and the Glock: Armed men guarded Media Matters boss as he took $400,000 gun control donation

quote:

Brock reportedly told confidantes that he feared for his safety and needed hired guns to keep him safe. The District's gun laws are among the strictest in the nation, which raises the question of whether Brock's assistant at times was in violation of its ban on carrying a concealed weapon.

"He had more security than a Third World dictator," one Media Matters employee told The Daily Caller. Brock's guards rarely left Brock's side and even accompanied him to his home in a tony Washington neighborhood where they "stood post" nightly, the source told the DC.


You will notice that his bodyguard was carrying a concealed weapon in Washington D.C., a city where it is nearly impossible to be able to legally carry a concealed firearm. It seems that the hypocritical gun grabbers are all in good company. From an article about New York City Mayor and gun grabber extraordinaire, Michael Bloomberg.

New York’s Mayor, but Bermuda Shares Custody

The mayor also takes along a police detail when he travels, flying two officers on his private plane and paying as much as $400 a night to put them up at a hotel near his house; the city pays their wages while they are there, as it does whether Mr. Bloomberg is New York or not. Guns are largely forbidden in Bermuda — even most police officers do not use them — but the mayor’s guards have special permission to carry weapons. A spokesman for the Police Department declined to comment.
