RE: Fresno Grizzlies apologize to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Memorial Day tribute video
I think AOC is, in fact, an enemy of freedom, but I think it was extremely poor taste to have included her in the video. I don't think the footage of Antifa was appropriate in that context either, although I also think they are enemies of freedom, and of our country.
We have enough real enemies that we don't need to go picking political fights.

Why should freedom loving people fear offending her sensibilities if she is an enemy? Eff her. Now, I can understand the organization issuing an apology for engaging - even if inadvertently - in politicizing the event but she was accurately portrayed if you ask me.

The Constitution says to fight enemies foreign and domestic. She falls under the domestic enemies along with Antifa.

I think she was accurately portrayed, and I thought my calling her an enemy of freedom adequately stated that. But doing so and then apologizing was a stupid move because it highlights all the wrong things. If you put her in there it's going to produce a very predictable result. If you are going to put her in there and then apologize, you do more harm than good. If you are going to put her in there, then don't apologize, own it.

I agree that AOC and Antifa are threats to America. Im not sure you do yourself a service though in portraying either of them in this. Nothing however that I would lose sleep over.

AOC is just a Jenny from the block. All-American girl.
