Understand when Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez goes on Twitter and rallies people to blame Jeanine Pirro for some lunatic threatening Ilhan Omar it will lead to other lunatics threatening Pirro. We get it, AOC is desperate to make this about herself since she spent the last few days getting LIT UP for her ridiculously fake southern accent but c’mon, give us a break.
She is the LAST person who should be lecturing anyone else about talking policy, not personal.
Understand when Jeanine Pirro goes on Fox + rallies people to think hijabs are threatening, it leads to this.
Folks who imply we’re “bad” for politics, the party, the country, etc. have no idea the threats we deal w/ because of that kind of language.
Talk policy, not personal. https://t.co/udFg3LMdgB

From CNN:
A New York man is in custody after having been arrested and charged with threatening to assault and murder Rep. Ilhan Omar, according to the US Attorney’s Office for the Western District of New York.
Patrick W. Carlineo, Jr., 55, of Addison, New York, threatened to kill Omar because of her Muslim faith, according to a criminal complaint and accompanying affidavit.
As we said, the dude is a lunatic.
FYI, at no point in the article is Pirro mentioned. Yeah, we read it so you didn’t have to, you’re welcome.
What about all the vitriolic rhetoric about people who wear red hats? Is that still ok in your book?

Maybe if this person tweeted with a southern accent AOC might understand her question better.
Goes both ways

Very true.
That’s a really big glass house.
— Pete (@thetravelwins) April 7, 2019
YUGE.
Are you calling for censorship? @JudgeJeanine says vile things; using this incident to silence your critics is equally vile…. maybe more so.
— CW3 Schadenfreude??????????????? (@ret_cw3) April 7, 2019
Not only is she calling for censorship but she’s blaming Pirro for a man threatening Omar. Did Pirro say some stupid stuff? Yes. Did she cause this idiot to threaten Omar? No.
Death threats against ANYONE are just wrong!
Now do Hamas… pic.twitter.com/u1ZxOvBQBJ— CW3 Schadenfreude??????????????? (@ret_cw3) April 7, 2019
Good luck with THAT.
And once again her followers remind us how she got elected …
Why don’t hate speech laws apply to Fox News?

Sweet baby corn.
@JudgeJeanine needed tagged for this.
— Carrie (@harleygold) April 7, 2019
Yeah, take THAT Jeanine! We’re sure she’s super worried now.
They know exactly what that kind of rhetoric leads to. That's exactly why they do it. They know their own people.
— Loraine Squared (@LoraineSquared) April 7, 2019
They really think like this.
He fat boy @realDonaldTrump this why you need to stop with your hateful remarks because believe it or not your words have consequences.
— Kevin F. Satchell (@fitchure) April 7, 2019
‘Fat boy?’ Oh, the irony.
I love your thoughts and how succinctly you state them. Clearly no lobbyists own you. Please, why don’t you just take over the presidency in a coup and shut down Fox news.
— Suzie Afridi (@SuzieSaysSo) April 7, 2019
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA … oh, wait, she’s serious.
Adorable.
Jeanine Pirro is a disgusting piece of crap …a loud talking luny. Stay safe Alexandria and Ilhan … we need your voices of reason to be heard. You have huge support behind the scenes.
— John Mittelheuser (@JMittelheuser) April 7, 2019
Keep in mind, AOC’s tweet was about how people should stop with the personal attacks and only talk policy. Notice anything interesting in her supporters’ comments?
Actually, AOC, those people DO have an idea of the threats their "opponents" face when they engage in such rhetoric….it's intentional…they mean for you to be scared, etc. That is one of the facets of insanity, especially psychopathy. Psychopaths are experts in manipulation.
— Andrew Rei (@AndrewRei15) April 7, 2019
Psychopaths.
Alrighty.
This interaction though may be our favorite on the thread.
Your side does same with MAGA hats everyday.
— Vinny (@vinnyc101) April 7, 2019
Yup.
Well if people with MAGA hats don't want a giant bullseye on their pointed heads maybe they should take them off – if for no other reason than our Big Mac shoveler-in-chief referring to refugees as animals. Otherwise, you deserve what you get.
— A Machine of Feelings (@nik_mohilchock) April 7, 2019
‘You deserve what you get.’
Wow, right? AOC is upset that Omar has been threatened over her Hijab and her followers are telling people in MAGA hats if they don’t want to be harassed they should take them off.
Too funny, and by funny we mean sad, pathetic, and totally predictable.
