No Class: AOC Disrespects Former Navy Seal and Congressmen Dan Crenshaw
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY clashed with a real hero Congressman Dan Crenshaw R-Texas who is a former Navy Seal.
Ocasio-Cortez attacked Crenshaw for a tweet about a woman in Houston who used a handgun to defend herself when five men tried to rob her.
“Situations like this story are why we protect the 2nd Amendment,’ Crenshaw tweeted.
He added: “Side note: With universal background checks, I wouldn’t be able to let my friends borrow my handgun when they travel alone like this. We would make felons out of people just for defending themselves.”

Ocasio-Cortez replied to Crenshaw asking him why is he “lending” his guns to people and accused the lawmaker of giving firearms to people who have “abused their spouse or have a criminal record. AOC said, “You are a member of Congress. Why are you “lending” guns to people unsupervised who can’t pass a basic background check? The people you’re giving a gun to have likely abused their spouse or have a violent criminal record, & you may not know it. Why on earth would you do that?”

Crenshaw responded to Ocasio-Cortez and said, “you think my friends are domestic abusers/criminals? Seriously that’s your argument? That they can’t pass a background check? Wrong. People lend guns to friends, esp if they don’t own a gun, for self-defense and hunting purposes. This is America outside NYC.
Just so I’m clear: you think my friends are domestic abusers/criminals? Seriously that’s your argument? That they can’t pass a background check?
Wrong. People lend guns to friends, esp if they don’t own a gun, for self-defense and hunting purposes.

AOC didn’t like that too much and decided to name call Crenshaw’s friends and label them domestic abusers.
Herein lies an important point abt domestic abuse: most of it is hidden. You could know an abuser & have no clue.
I’ve had friends come out to me as victims. It’s not obvious. Unsafe relationships are COMMON.
That’s why House Dems passed closing the boyfriend loophole in VAWA.

I’m glad the Congressman did not lower himself and respond to that nonsense, AOC is out of touch with America. AOC is trying to tie gun owners in with domestic abuser just like San Fransisco is trying to call NRA members domestic terrorists. The get rid of the 2nd Amendment the left is demonizing lawful gun owners.
