AOC Follows Elizabeth Warren’s Lead, Seemingly Justifying Murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO
“This is not to say that an act of violence is justified, but I think for anyone who is confused or shocked or appalled, they need to understand that people interpret and feel and experience denied claims as an act of violence against them”
Far left New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is following in the footsteps of Elizabeth Warren, decrying violence over the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, followed by a big “but” that discredits everything she said before that word.
In AOC’s case, she even goes so far as to suggest that denying someone’s healthcare claim is seen as “violence” by many Americans.
These people are insane.
The New York Post reports:
AOC sympathizes with those celebrating UnitedHealthcare CEO’s murder, says denied claims are ‘acts of violence’
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sparked controversy Thursday with her remarks on the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson when she suggested that those shocked by people’s lack of sympathy toward the slain CEO simply don’t understand Americans’ frustration with the health care system.
“This is not to say that an act of violence is justified, but I think for anyone who is confused or shocked or appalled, they need to understand that people interpret and feel and experience denied claims as an act of violence against them,” the congresswoman told CBS News’ Jaala Brown on Thursday.
Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) maintained that systemic inequality is the real problem. “Health care in this country has gotten to such a depraved state that people are living with things they should never have to live with. And this is not to say and this is not to participate in that glorification, but we need to understand that extreme levels of inequality in the United States yield high degrees of social instability,” she said.
AOC’s comments drew a slew of backlash from those who are fed up with those excusing the cold-blooded murder, lovers of the accused killer, Luigi Mangione, and posters across the Big Apple warning other CEOs that they’re next on the hit list.

At the same time, AOC has no trouble at all assigning blame in the case of Daniel Penny.

Have you noticed that the murder of Brian Thompson is one of the first cases in recent history that has not been followed by leftists calling for greater gun control? Isn’t that curious?
Of course, what this is all about for the left is a perceived opportunity to push for their ultimate brass ring of completely socialized, government-run healthcare. Obamacare was never the end goal and everyone knows it.

“AOC Following Elizabeth Warren’s Lead”
Well, Warren is an Indian on the warpath. therefore AOC’s first task is to become an Indian.
Since you stoke these loons where does this end? Just be glad it’s not your profession.
AOC is oblivious to the concept of “that which goes around, comes around.”
If AOC is interested (she’s not) in assigning blame for the current situation in healthcare, she should ask BHO (she won’t) because it was his signature legislation that took a troubled but still functioning healthcare system and turned it into the socialist h3llh01e it is today.
But considering the fact that AOC is equally beautiful as she is stupid, she’ll never make the connection but rather go looking for a Republican to blame.
I don’t want AOC to leave Congress. How else will I know what to oppose if she’s not advocating for something?
“I would hate to suggest that an act of violence aimed at communist lawmakers would be justified, but…”
“These people are insane.” To us they are but to each other only the next ideological step on their road to “what is to be done”?
Feelings justify violence according to her.
Mike LaChance already addressed this point, but it’s worth repeating: The lack of rants about gun control after a man is gunned down in broad daylight in NYC tells me the left doesn’t really care about gun control as long as those who the left demonizes as ‘other’ are the victims of gun violence.
Due Process. It’s part of the American experience, or at least it was before barky and dementia joe appeared from the depths of Hell. THIS is what demonrats don’t understand.. They just take the law into their own filthy hands and do what “feels” right to them.
They don’t deserve to live in this country.
