Yes, the president's children most certainly need 24/7 armed security - not even a question in most people's mind. The difference is that protection of the president's children is in the interest of our country's national security.
Sorry but I see this differently. I don't wish harm on the President's daughters or any other kids for that matter. But our granddaughter has the right from her Creator for protection, too. Because she is too young yet to fully assume that roll for herself, the rest of us have to step in and help her. She cannot yet drive a car either so we take her places that she needs or wants to go in our car. That is the way that it is with kids.

This is not about whether the President and his family but about whether the President, Bloomberg and the rest of the Elites can deny the rest of us and especially our kids and grandkids protection. As far as I'm concerned, neither he nor any member of Congress should have anything that they choose to deny for me. I would love to see a Constitutional amendment to that affect.
Here is the rub.

I, me, one of the ones who despises the president and what he stands for, would never want anything to happen to his family by any evil that exists in this world. I would beyond a shodow of doubt defend his little girls and their mother if I was to witness an attempt by someone to do them harm. I would gladly go to slide lock in a heartbeat.

Now.

Do you actually think that they believe the same about me and mine?

Do you actually think that they believe that me and mine deserve the same protection that they receive? It is true that I do not have near the individuals who are undoubtedly plotting against me that they do. This point is also irrelevant.

No one human in this world is above another ort more deserving of treatment than another.

It says so in Our Declaration of independence and constitution.

I think that you and I are saying exactly the same thing. This is not like Orwell's Animal Farm and some being more equal than others.

It doesn't matter one way or another, at least to me. Either providing for security is a good idea and is worth it, or it isn't. The same goes for the rest of his proposals. Attack or defend on that. Even a evil moron can have a good idea, just as a genius can be wrong on an issue.

This NRA ad is resonating with parents all across the country by focusing on the REASON those 20 Sandy Hook Elementary children could not be protected in THEIR classrooms .....no armed protection.

Sandy Hook is all about the safety of our children - including the President's.

Had Obama's children been visiting Sandy Hook on December 14, 2012 - those 20 children, and 6 staff would still be alive - because armed security would have been present at least on that day.

This NRA ad is "offensive" to the gun-ban folks because it illustrates both the problem, the solution, and the present desparity, and hypocracy.

This ad redirects the focus upon the actual PROBLEM while pointing out the SOLUTION -and deserves an honest response from the gun-grabber-in-chief.

Obama, and his gun-banners are the only ones using children as pawns.

You seem to be missing the main point. Yes, Obama's children are protected by Secret Service, and yes, they should be. But the armed guards at the school his children (and many other hypocritical elites' children) attend are not Secret Service. They are employees of the school.

The point is, he see's nothing wrong with that yet doesn't think your children should have armed protection. That is hypocrisy at its most obvious, and that will ring true for many, many parents who are currently very worried about their children's future.
The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. James Madison

I'd suggest going to the actual NRA YouTube site to view it. The link in the original post seems to be some anti war YouTube page.
