NYC’s Bloomberg: ‘I feel perfectly safe’ – Yahoo! News.

So would I if I had a minimum of 18 people around me all day, every day whose job is was to provide personal protection to me and me alone you pompous ass! Of course Michael Bloomberg feels perfectly safe.  He never goes anywhere without his protection detail. They all but shake his schmeckle and wipe his butt for him.  Try sitting next to Bloomberg on the subway without a specific invitation to do so or him commandeering the seat next to you first and see how that works out for you.

At any given moment, there are no less than a half-dozen dedicated NYPD officers shadowing Bloomberg’s every move.  They carry arms and armor on his behalf and are paid to take a bullet for him if necessary.  Few regular citizens will ever enjoy such perks and even when his time as mayor is done, he will likely seek another public office that offers similar protection or, he’ll simply pay for it out of his own pocket.

While it saddens me that someone purported to be on “our side” is alleged to have sent ricin-laced letters to Bloomberg and POTUS, I wouldn’t put this past some extremist liberal either.  There are liberals so committed to their cause that they would send such messages just to stir the pot.  Heck, for all we know, the current “person of interest” has simply been setup by a jilted wife who, rather than going through the trouble of a normal divorce, simply decided to screw her husband royally. It wouldn’t be the first time a guy was fingered for threatening a public figure only to find out it that suspect was being setup by a third party.
