Criticism would be warranted but she is a woman and a muslim. A few years ago criticism wouldve been ok. Did Pelosi sponsor the bill?
David Frum argues in The Atlantic that Democrats are falling into the "Omar Trap": Against Omar’s propensity to provoke, the Democratic Party seems institutionally almost defenseless. Pelosi was thwarted when she attempted to pass a resolution condemning anti-Semitic expressions by House members. . . . After Trump’s tweeted attack, Omar will become even more internally uncriticizable and unmanageable, without becoming any more careful or responsible. Indeed, the speech by Omar that provided Trump with the sound bite he exploited—“some people did something”—itself exemplifies her carelessness and irresponsibility. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/04/trumps-attack-ilhan-omar-trap-democrats/587128/
Omar doesn't need to be managed. The idea that she for some reason needs to be managed by other Democrats is offensive.

Clearly this persons anger was fueled by the hate speech of Ihan Omar and the Democrats. Ilhan Omar and the Democrats are the real villains here. This is how the left has played these scenarios the last two years. Every act of violence is the fault of hate speech not the individual committing the act of violence.
You didn't even do this poor attempt correctly. Omar was the target, not the instigator. The left has blamed Trump when people carry out the kinds of things that Trump talks about and advocates.
On one hand, claiming that I don’t do Left Wing philosophy correctly is a compliment. Thank You. On the other hand you just lied. People have blamed Trump for everything from school shootings to the Synagogue shootings in Pittsburg and the attempted Cesar Sayoc mail bombings. Trump did not advocate any of that.
Right. Those shooters are going after Trump's enemies. This was not someone going after Omar's enemies.
Not new, but newly discovered tweet by Omar suggests criticism of US military's response in Battle of Mogadishu.
Funny, I read it more as a criticism of people who ignore the deaths or try to minimize the tragedy of non-Americans who are killed in battle or in a terrorist attack.
With all the other things wrong with this tweet, calling the Battle of Mogadishu a terrorist attack is the stupid part that gets overlooked.
