I don't want to celebrate how Ilhan Omar was ready to throw down. Tired of valorizing Black women as fighters, that dude should have been stopped and stomped out before he got close to her.

the reason I'm so heated right now is Ilhan Omar has been thrown to the wolves so many times by the Democratic establishment for saying the things the Dems are finally, YEARS LATER starting to say. They've let Rep Omar take a lot of heat and have not used their voices enough to defend her

To clarify, I fully support Ilhan Omar being ready to rock that dude's shit (it's a good lesson in what happens when someone oversteps) I just just know how my BW friends are TIRED and I don't want us always celebrating them as fierce when bad shit happens, give them money and support REGARDLESS
