[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1393400, member: 18225"] I'm going to respectfullly disagree (tell me where I'm wrong). Bloomberg is rich as friend... however, when he was Mayor of NYC, presumably he had an armed detail, which makes sense for the Mayor of NYC. Bloomberg now? Still a target: regardless of Bloomberg's politics, he's a very important, and very rich public figure...if anyone reading this was that rich and that public, yes of course you'd have security. Bill Gates? I'm not sure he has armed guards at all. If he does, and I don't think he does, I wouldn't be surprised if he did. Gates is worth about a ZILLION, probably not a target (potentially a target). Bloomberg is an azzhat, but he's definitely a target (potentially). These guys simply don't follow the same rules as the rest of us. Major Point: Sober, if you were worth X,000,000,000 + dollars, you would have armed security. I'm not sure that would make you a hypocrite for having said armed security, even if you simultaneously disagreed with current gun laws. [/QUOTE]
