Louisiana police officer fired after suggesting AOC should be shot
The officer called Ocasio-Cortez a "vile idiot" who "needs a round, and I don't mean the kind she used to serve."
A Louisiana police officer was fired on Monday over a Facebook post he made last week suggesting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., be shot.
The officer, Charlie Rispoli, a 14-year veteran of the Gretna, Louisiana, police force, called Ocasio-Cortez a "vile idiot" who "needs a round, and I don't mean the kind she used to serve," referring to her past job as a bartender, according to a screenshot posted by nola.com, the website for The Times-Picayune in New Orleans. According to the news outlet, his comment was a reaction to a fake quote attributed to the congresswoman claiming that "we pay soldiers too much." Both his post and Facebook account have since been taken down.
Gretna's police chief, Arthur Lawson, said in a news conference on Monday that both Rispoli and another officer who liked the post were terminated. He called the situation an "embarrassment to our department" and "very, very disappointing."
Ocasio-Cortez responded to the news on Twitter, blaming Trump's rhetoric.
"This is Trump’s goal when he uses targeted language & threatens elected officials who don’t agree w/ his political agenda," she said. "It’s authoritarian behavior. The President is sowing violence. He’s creating an environment where people can get hurt & he claims plausible deniability."

This is so true.
Why are simple things like healthcare such a mess there?
I think because they are ideological to a far greater degree than most other places. They can invoke ideological road blocks to any action or proposal.
He was an arrogant prick with totalitarian tendencies.Oh, yes, he was a really bad man...
I'm an old guy. Je me souviens.
Yup, he was.
I'm a lot older than you, born in '46. He did some good things and he did some bad things. I think the worst thing he did was take away the Bank of Canada's control of our money and hand it over to the international banksters. I don't think he had much choice as the Yankees were holding a gun to his head.
I did like the time Tricky Dicky called him to Washington to read him the riot act and he jumped on his plane and flew to Russia to negotiate a trade deal just to piss Nixon off.
