    “If you’re saying I voted for military funding, you are lying,” she wrote. “Drag me for my positions all you want, but lying about them doesn’t make you part of the ‘left.’ If you believe neo-Nazis are welcome and operating in good faith, you can have them.”

    She did though, right?

        If it’s purely defensive weapon then why don’t they sell them to Russia, Iran or North Korea?

      Like, the most devils advocate I can be for her vote is that she’s arguing that we shouldn’t take away their shield, we should take away their spear.

      To which… I still don’t see the logic. Because if you can block with one hand you’re free to stab with the other. If all you have is stabby implements, you got no way to deal with when they stab back.

      They’d be forced to be less aggressive, which they seem intent to be.
