Rep. Rangel: 'Millions of Kids Dying, Being Shot Down By Assault Weapons'

It is just hard for me to fathom how this man gets re-elected year after year, even when he faced 13 ethics violations. The video below is proof the man is a walking ethics violation himself.   Last month he recommended bringing back the draft for all Americans.  He may be in American by birth, but it is obvious he has no desire to live up to his sworn oath to uphold the Constitution.  He is one of many that have destroyed the integrity of our institution of government.

Rep. Charlie Rangel (D- NY) appeared on MSNBC today and was asked about the assault weapons ban being dropped from the Senate bill. Rangel blamed politics and money for its demise, and claimed "millions of kids" are being shot and killed with "assault weapons."
"I'm ashamed to admit it but its politics and its money, The NRA has taken this position, there is no reason, there is no foundation. There is no hunter that needs automatic military weapons to enjoy the culture of going hunting," Rangel said.

He went on, "But you know it's really basically the absence of the voices of good people. I cannot believe that politicians are afraid of the NRA, if they thought for one minute that the churches and the synagogue and the priests and the ministers were saying, "Hey! Do the right thing and we have your back."
"We're talking about millions of kids dying - being shot down by assault weapons, were talking about handguns easier in the inner cities, to get these guns in the inner cities, than to get computers. This is not just a political issue, it's a moral issue and so when we condemn the NRA we should not ignore the fact that a lot of people that have taken moral positions have been solid on this big one."
