Republicans: candidate who assaulted reporter is fine with us!

And yet, in this very thread, I and others disagree with it. If you want to complain about the actions of Professor Miller-Young or Representative Moran, go ahead and start a thread about it. I’m sure you’ll get the same general response they all get, like in this thread itself:

“She shouldn’t have done that, it’s wrong.”
“He’s an asshole.”
etc.

From both sides. With louder cries from one side, because LIBERAL HYPOCRISY.

They’re not similar. Where, in either of those cases, was someone assaulted for asking a question, the assaulter blatantly lying about it, or party leadership saying nothing worse than, “He should apologize.”?

Moran assaulted a fellow Congressman for comments about Moran’s bill. Why that’s more evil than a question, I have no idea. Party leadership took no actions against Moran.

The sixteen year old was assaulted for holding a sign. That seems less evil than asking
a question too.

Summary from a poster that’s also in this thread:

Newsflash: stupid sign stolen by stupid person.

And one who isn[t:

@Miller

@Damuri Ajashi

Why is everyone so eager to excuse this woman’s actions and treat is as something less severe than what it is? It is criminal and inexcusable.

I think it’s because we are, for the most part, not fucking lunatics.
