| Steve Scalise before being shot by Bernie supporter |
"I will NOT stand for it. I don’t care HOW much you hate a political opponent. As long as you wish or call for their death, you’re just as bad as they are. I want absolutely nothing to do with that kind of behavior, and will always be the first to condemn it when I see it.
"We are AMERICA. Not some undeveloped third-world country. We’re supposed to be above this. There is NO PLACE for freaking DEATH THREATS in political discourse.
"Unfortunately, more and more we’ve seen our society descend into this. It’s sick.
"According to Fox News:
"US. Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., abruptly halted a Twitter debate with newcomer Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York early Sunday after at least three commenters made references to the June 2017 shooting in which Scalise and three other people were shot by a left-wing activist.
“ 'Snipe his a–,” one Twitter user wrote, in support of Ocasio-Cortez. (The user later denied that the post was a call for political violence, writing, “not seeing any violence there sorry” and telling Fox News it referred only to a verbal “sniping.”)
“ 'she’s got better aim than James Hodgkinson, that’s for sure,” another wrote, comparing Ocasio-Cortez’s Twitter responses to the marksmanship of the suspect in the Virginia shooting, a Bernie Sanders supporter who later died in a shootout with police.
“ 'Kick his cane,” a third wrote." . . .
