    Better than doing zilch.

    You are picking a really weird hill to die on. Taking the side of a guy that cowers like a wuss, runs away, and leaves his woman to fend for herself against a dude harassing her is never the correct answer.

    This incident is a like a role call for beta males. I bet you weep after sex.

    We celebrate a group of men using violence, not just protesting because they believed they were unfairly taxed yet you can't extent that basic level of empathy to women who believe their basic bodily autonomy, basic human dignity is being stripped away and want to protest outside the residence of the very people who took that basic human dignity away from them. What do you exactly want to discuss? Do you want a serious discussion?

    This is really sad. Like an immense amount of projection from probably a childhood of not having a father figure or something along those lines. I don't know but man... This is just pathetic.

    I have done a 180 over the past year, I don't think people should protest outside of someone`s home. People should be able to go home and have peace and quiet and not have their family put in that position. As far as people saying something stupid while there out to eat is debatable but I am opposed to doing this at peoples home, there are plenty of avenues for this. Being a public figure puts an bullseye on your back at times and if you want to heckle them in public then so be it..............now I think the guy who was yelling at AOC crossed a line when he made it sexual, its in poor taste but you cant legislate bad taste and I would have no issue with her either ignoring him, flipping him off or having her BF come up and tell this dude to back off, but that's a slippery slope, if it was me I would have made a bee line to that dude and probably would have swung on him......then I would go to jail, be all over FOX news and probably lose my job, over some idiot who heckles people for a living.

    if it hadn't been in obvious bad taste it would (a) not have left a mark and (b) we likely wouldn't be talking about it now

    AOC's mistake was jumping on twitter to respond before she found out who the guy heckling her was.

    She's a little like Trump that way, just a bit too fast on the twitter trigger

    Remember when Abe was the greatest threat to democracy?

    That was awesome

    AOC and Abe, two fantastic prezzies

    Imagine how Stein felt when he got that reaction, I mean he was known I guess but this blew him up.... Would have already passed if AOC just ignored him or right after the peace selfie she proceeded to never talk about it again.

    Everyone should know to not feed the trolls, can be tough sometimes though, obviously.

    certainly the AOC video has been good for business, and her drawing attention to it probably got him 100-125k of those 177k views

    yeah, but that's okay, she has already defended peoples' first amendment rights to harass public figures if they don't like those public figures. She's a public figure, so there you go. It's as if she invited people to harass her. She ought to be happy that people are complying. ;)

    She might have started another meme that does not help her political party, will it reach "Lets go Brandon" status? Maybe not but who knows how these things work...

    Right... so harassment is ok as long as I don't like the person/politician/judge.

    That's a good standard.
