How Many Cops Does It Take to Have an Eric Cantor Town Hall?  As the House Majority Leader, Rep. Eric Cantor already has his own security detail.  They drive him around, pick him up and drop him off.  You have to wonder what the cost of Cantor’s security detail is along with the cost of all the cops in this video.  What were they being paid to protect him from? Being asked about jobs?  How were police able to prevent some people from getting in the hotel and not others? An earthquake and a hurricane hit Cantor’s district during the month of August and Cantor has questioned whether or not hurricane victims should receive government assistance.  What is so threatening about asking a member of Congress about jobs that a person needs this many cops around his town hall?  Surely their beat is not the Holiday Inn Kroger Center in Richmond.
