Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said Tuesday that she thought she might die during a "traumatizing" close encounter amid the chaos of last week’s deadly breach of the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump rioters. "I can tell you that I had a very close encounter where I thought I was going to die," she said during an Instagram Live. "And you have all of those thoughts where, at the end of your life…all of these thoughts come rushing to you. And that’s what happened to a lot of us on Wednesday and I did not think – I did not know if I was going to make it to the end of that day alive." She said she didn't just mean it generally but in a "very, very specific sense." The congresswoman gave no details, saying she wasn’t sure if she was allowed to completely discuss what happened for security reasons. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that "many, many members of the House were nearly assassinated," she told her followers. "We were very lucky that things happened in certain minutes that allowed members to escape the House floor but many of us nearly and narrowly escaped death," she added. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering that she is the face of the lie that police are an issue, that she constantly suggests negative things about people who are white, and people were clearly being violent and aggressive.....and those people were not the ones she controlled in this instance.....she had every right to be afraid.

I agree to an extent. The fear of a group of people that wish to hurt you are inside your building is real. However, I think that her "very very specific sense" sounds like she had a gun to her head. Which we know she didn't. The house and senate escaped, were removed, etc. Everything could have been worse and maybe she needs to keep that in mind. This is the crap that happens when you say the things that she says, and expects everyone to just be like, "Oh, okay." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they never wished to hurt her and if everything was as bad as it was going to be, then your statements are wrong. The probability is that this was a display, nothing more or less.

If they TRULY wished to hurt her, they would have. If they really wanted to destroy stuff, they wouldn't have bothered to take time for focking selfies and carrying shite around the WH. If they were after specific people, they would have tried harder to make that happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
