(Congress Report) – There are a lot of intellectually challenged liberals serving in Congress, but by far, the worst has to be Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. And I’m not just referring to the ridiculous things she’s said in the past, but things she continues to say in the here and now.
For example, according to a report from TheBlaze, a group of bipartisan senators actually came together and created a framework for a gun reform bill last weekend, but AOC was not happy with the final product.
This is what happens when you are both incompetent and a complete and total radical in your political ideology. There is absolutely zero room for compromise and working together, which is something that just doesn’t seem to be sinking in for this woman.
The report says, “The proposed framework includes funding for ‘red flag’ laws, enhanced school safety measures, and mental health services, as well as expanded background checks into juvenile records for gun purchases and increased gun-related criminalization — and that’s where Ocasio-Cortez draws the line. According to the socialist congresswoman, the ‘focus on increased criminalization and juvenile criminalization, instead of having the focus on guns’ is racist. The mental health angle is also racist, apparently, because ‘what people are blaming on mental health are really deeper issues of violent misogyny and white supremacy.'”
Now, I’m a total purist when it comes to the Second Amendment. I don’t believe there should be any restrictions that impede the ability of a person to own a firearm. However, the point here is that liberals are, sort of, in a soft way, getting what they want, but it’s still not enough for AOC.
You can never satisfy the extremists.
“AOC tells me she is worried about the criminalization in the gun framework: ‘particularly, the juvenile criminalization, the expansion of background checks into juvenile records, I want to explore the implications of that and how specifically i’s [sic] designed and tailored. After Columbine, we hired thousands of police officers into schools and while it didn’t prevent many of the mass shootings that we’ve seen now, it has increased the criminalization of teens in communities like mine,’” journalist Eric Michael Garcia stated in a tweet.

“When I asked if she was worried if the mental health aspects would increase stigmatization, she said ‘absolutely. Because what people are blaming on mental health are really deeper issues of violent misogyny and white supremacy,'” the journalist then added.

“Attenuated like the deep isolation that we see with a lot of these folks, at the end of the day, we’re not addressing—there are some issues like the boyfriend loophole being closed,” she says. “The connection between domestic violence, and masa shootings, et Cetera.”

Stu Burguiere, a host for TheBlaze, was not in the least bit surprised by the lunacy of AOC and her take on the new proposed gun control framework.
“Everything in the entire world is ‘racist’ and nobody puts the burden of that racism on themselves harder than our favorite all-time victim, Ms. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,” Stu went on to say during a recent episode of “Stu Does America.”
“A bipartisan gun control legislation that could open up future doors for even more authoritarian manipulation by the left and this woman still has to screech ‘racism’ to high heaven. I swear her commitment to the bit at this point is almost inspiring,” he continued. “If we’ve learned anything, it’s that everything is racist.”
