Oh... gotta love when they refer to themselves as "elites". "Elite", my ass. Most referred to as such merely have genetic-defect levels of greed, which in the end is detrimental to everyone including themselves.

Problem being, people like that tend to "float" to the top, where they then hire all the best snipers and security personnel, or at least mediocre ones who are then provided with the best equipment

I'm participating in a follow the money exercise that has spun off the current diddy debacle. In almost every instance, the money can be traced back to blackrock and/or vanguard. There is also a commonality that is hard to avoid among the top people of those two organizations. Those interested, have a look.

I always reminded myself that I protected the office, not necessarily the individual in it at that exact time. Kind of like you respect the rank, not the person wearing it. Just so anyone doesn't get the wrong idea, while I was the dude in the suit and the earpiece a (very) few times, most of the time I was in full kit with a suppressed SBR and stuffed in a nearby closet, kitchen, unused office, vehicle, or other dead space. Also, it was in addition to other duties. I was never a full-time dignitary guy who traveled with them. Probably why I'm still married!

As far as rubbing butts of the rich and powerful, yeah, not really. All the ones I was around pretty much ignored us. I never tried to talk to any of them, either. Just wouldn't have seemed appropriate.

I get it and no offense intended. Knew people who worked details for the the clintons, before and during presidency, and some who worked for Dubya. Most guys I know these days look at the job as a whole, if it's worth the money/risk, they jump; usually a contract for a specified period. Every one that comes to mind is off shore...

Very nice and easy to follow motion. Good thing Bruen exists now, huh?

If all goes well and a final judgment after default is granted, how strong of precedent would this case become for tearing down other infringement “laws” in Florida (“bump stock” {binary triggers} ban) and in other states?

Unknown, the judge now has the ball and we're playing in his court. But depending on how things go. I will use it to the best of our ability to go after other anti-gun laws and policies.
