Dem Senators: Just Like You and Me, Only BETTER!

Like a Booker in church.
Yes, it’s happened again. Yet another Democratic lawmaker who thinks his armed staff “doesn’t count.”
That’s because Cory Booker, like most of his anti-gun buddies, truly believes himself above the law. As someone who hates the Second Amendment, Senator Booker (and his Congressional aide) knows better than anyone that guns are strictly limited to law enforcement only in the Capitol building. But, you see, Booker and his aide (one Kevin A. Batts) felt that doesn’t apply to them. Why would it? After all, having that (D) after your name means that you’re exempt from laws that you voted for.
We’re going to assume that Booker couldn’t be reached for comment, because he was too busy filibustering in the Senate. Is that the same filibuster that he and his Dem buddies were absolutely desperate to outlaw back when they thought they’d be able to keep control of the Senate? Why yes, yes it is!
Dear Readers: Do any of you believe that Mr. Batts will suffer the same fate as the January 6 protesters, who entered the Capitol building while UNARMED?
As always, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) is on the case.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mondayโs arrest of an armed congressional staffer of anti-gun Sen. Cory Bookerโs office clearly reveals the New Jersey Democrat is another Capitol Hill hypocrite when it comes to โguns for me, but not for thee,โ the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.
According to aย published report, Capitol police arrested 59-year-old Kevin A. Batts of New Jersey, a retired Newark police detective for carrying a pistol without a license. He was reportedly arrested after accompanying a member of Congress into the U.S. Capitol building. He reportedly advised officers outside of the Senate gallery that he was armed.
โCory Booker has never met a gun control law he didnโt like,โ said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. โHe has supported all kinds of gun grabbing proposals, the stricter the better. Yet, it is now revealed that Mr. Batts, described as a โspecial assistantโ to Booker, often accompanies him to events. Being a retired police officer makes him just another private citizen, with no special privileges. The fact he apparently goes with Booker, presumably armed, to various events in New Jersey is ample evidence the senator thinks itโs okay for him to have armed security, while he has labored to keep every average citizen disarmed, and vulnerable to violent crime.
โWe canโt have any sympathy for Mr. Batts,โ Gottlieb continued. โAs a former police officer, he surely must know carrying a gun into the U.S. Capitol is strictly prohibited. And, since he is from New Jersey, where average citizens have a very difficult time getting a carry permit and non-residents cannot carry at all, he certainly knows the penalty for carrying without a license in a different jurisdiction.
โWeโre reminded of the time back in 1986 when anti-gun-rights Sen. Ted Kennedyโs bodyguard was arrested in the Russell Senate Office Building for having an Uzi and Beretta in his gear,โ Gottlieb recalled. โThat man was also a former police officer. Booker appears to be cut from the same cloth; presuming his safety is more important than that of the single mom or the working dad going from one job to another to pay their bills and keep their families safe.
โItโs time the senator should understand,โ he observed, โthat whatโs good for Cory ought to be good for the entire country. Armed personal protection is a right of the people, not a privilege of political office.โ

Unless Mr. Rockwell left something out, Batts was charged and Sen. Booker was nowhere around; Rockwell doesn’t mention any reaction from Booker either.
Opposition to Sen. Booker’s policy positions and even displeasure with Sen. Booker is understandable.
But we have no need to invent trash talk beyond facts to make a point; doing so only diminishes our credibility and only sounds like whining child in a schoolyard.

Booker must be charged with conspiracy to evade the law since he knew his staff member was armed.

Definitely. He walked him around the metal detectors. He knew.

Where does Rockwell say that the member of Congress who was with Batts was Booker ?
“He was reportedly arrested after accompanying a member of Congress” is all the story says.
