A top Senate Republican will unveil proposals Tuesday designed to bolster security for federal judges and prosecutors and could eventually introduce the plan as an amendment to a gun bill up for debate in the Senate, according to aides.

Responding to the shooting deaths of two Texas prosecutors, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.), the state’s former attorney general, is seeking ways to ensure that prosecutors and judges at all level of government have proper protection, especially if people retaliate against them with violence.

Cornyn plans to unveil legislation Tuesday that would permit state and local governments to use existing federal grant funding to provide more security for prosecutors and judges in dangerous cases. Concerned with current limits barring federal prosecutors from carrying personal firearms to their offices, Cornyn also plans to propose permitting prosecutors to carry weapons at all times for self-defense purposes.

It is a federal crime to kill, assault, intimidate or interfere with federal employees performing official duties, but Cornyn also hopes to stiffen penalties for anyone targeting federal prosecutors, judges, and law enforcement officers for retaliation, aides said. Enhanced penalties would include a greater likelihood of facing the death penalty, aides said, and make it more difficult for people to collect damages in litigation involving a government official who may have wounded someone in self-defense.

as usual, when it comes to their own protection, the elites WILL create the legislation for it. But for you and I, we're just shit out of luck. The sad part about this is most of the proles will see this as necessary because they are more important instead of what it truly is. the 'more guns are not the answer' will conveniently be ignored or the claim of 'police are highly trained' will be used.

This shit again? People like judges, prosecutors and the President's children get personal security because they are individuals particularly exposed to the risk of targeted violence. You and me don't get it because we aren't.

They are. So are defense attorneys. Would you prefer they be intimidated? Even the "serfs" in some legal trials need protection, i.e., Witness Protection. I guess you have a problem with that too?
