I'd donate to that, as long as the money went to the ACLU and/or the EFF. She's also a notorious gun-grabber despite having been one of the few people in the city of San Francisco to have a concealed carry permit (I don't remember if she still has it or not)
- yellowapple 9y ago"I don't remember if she still has it or not" I wouldn't be surprised if she still does. I also wouldn't be surprised if she still employs armed bodyguards.
- batbomb 9y agoShe does, but most those homes are empty 80% of the time. They have security guards that go around to the homes just to look for people who break into those homes to squat, which is an actual problem. I knew a guy living in one of the homes on that block for free just so that somebody would be around.
- jff 9y agoYou're thinking of security guards, not bodyguards. yellowapple was pointing out that she has armed bodyguards near her when she's out and about, yet she advocates for disarming the regular folk like us--"one law for me, another for thee"
- sbov 9y agoI can't help but laugh at having to hire people to keep a home from serving its purpose: to house people.
- asveikau 9y agoI always figured her position on guns had something to do with her closeness to the Harvey Milk / Moscone assassination. Probably very personally distressing.
- jljljl 9y agoShe no longer has it, and if I read right she hasn’t since 1995: http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/273989-feinstein-doesnt-have-concealed-carry-permit-anymore http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/273989-fein... I’m also not sure the sourcing of her armed bodyguards mentioned elsewhere. In DC, all senators are under protection of the Capitol Police, who are armed, but I can’t find details about what protection she has outside DC.
