Honor her for what? She survived, others died that day, including a little girl. She wasn’t in combat, she didn’t take a bullet for anyone, and it wasn’t a terrorist attack. She was giving a speech in a public forum to sell her political agenda, she was shot by a crazy man, she fell to the ground, was rushed to the hospital and instinctively fought to live. She didnt save anyones life that day. It is a slap in the face to every real hero in this country.
But the point is, and I think we agree, that this particular honor is completely inappropriate.
