The Navy needs to stop naming ships after politicians. After an admiral, sure (Nimitz). After battles (Ticonderoga, Iwo Jima...) sure. The Navy should bring back classic ship names like Hornet, Intrepid, etc... But this trend of naming after politicians is just so crass. The USS Gabby Giffords. The USS Cesar Chavez. Please neither one of them deserve the honor the Navy has given them. Not even close.

Sure, re-name some old scuzzy degenerate ship they’re ready to scuttle, tow it out to sea, and open fire on it. That’s the only thing the Harvey Milk would be good for, kind of like the namesake.

San Francisco wouldn’t be San Francisco if not for robust political debate...

LOL - that would be like bragging about wild 'debates' within the NRA... yeah, 'robust' that's the term...
