A police officer was killed when a suspect rammed him and another officer with his car outside the Capitol on Friday. The suspect wielded a knife and was shot dead. The other officer hit by the car survived.
Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, tweeted: “Heartbroken to learn another [police officer] was killed while protecting the Capitol. My thoughts and prayers go out to the officer’s family and the entire Capitol police force. The death toll would have been worse if the assailant had an AR-15 [assault rifle] instead of a knife.”
In response, Congressman Greg Murphy of North Carolina wrote: “Would have been worse if they had been flying planes into the buildings also.”

I don’t see a problem with his statement.
I think Ilhans remarks should be condemned
Great response.
Goes right to her dismissive “Some people did something” referring to the 911 terrorists.
Nothing “phobic” about stating the truth. These people are idiots.
The fact that this woman is even in Congress speaks volumes to how completely corrupt the system is and how far has nation has fallen.
You’re only allowed to say mean things about whites or christians.
She acts like islamophobia is a bad thing.
14 or so centuries of wars of aggression, slaving, pillaging, raping, oppressing and general wickedness and Islam is painted as a victim.
“I don’t see a problem with his statement.”
I don’t have a problem with his statement, either. I wish more of our politicians would speak up like that. Regarding 9-11, I will NEVER FORGET it or the unholy monsters responsible for it.
I believe Flight 93 was earmarked for the Capitol. Those brave souls saved the seat of our Republic.
Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, tweeted: “Heartbroken to learn another [police officer] was killed while protecting the Capitol.

“Would have been worse if they had been flying planes into the buildings also.”
They're just mad because he used her same brand of logic to push back on her.
I take exception to that statement as being only partially correct...
It should have been more like:
"Would have been worse if you raghead bastards had been flying planes into the buildings again."
Sure if he had an AR15 he could have killed more. Sadly for Omar he didn’t. Using the same logic she used, think how many could have been killed if he had an abortion clinic. I can play the same “what if” game she does.
Ilhan Omar is Somalian trash. A treasonous anti-American steaming pile and fraud whose allegiance is in support and growth of the Islam State. She supports Sharia and its overthrow of the west and US governance... and she supports Islam fundamentalist and arming of terrorists that kill Jews, Christians and Americans.
America should take out the trash = Ilhan Omar.
A phobia is an irrational fear. What’s the word for a rational fear? Having known several Muslims who were not at all reticent about informing me of what would happen when “they” took over, I have a very rational fear of Muslims.
Among the wonderful advice my mother gave we was this gem. You listen to what people say. They will tell you how they’re going to treat you. You must listen and believe they mean it because they do mean it.
“I don’t see a problem with his statement.”
As a matter of fact in my opinion the congressman’s comment was rather tepid .
NEVER try to use their own words back at them, they really, really hate it.
