My Two Cents: Paul Gosar Controversy

That video was obviously meant to be symbolic.  It wasn't a real threat of violence to AOC or Biden, and we shouldn't get hyperbolic about it.
That being said, it is in incredibly poor taste, and certainly doesn't reflect the way we would want our Congressmen to comport themselves.  Nobody should actually be defending Paul Gosar either.
If I were in charge, I'd say he should have gotten  a mild scolding from the House, but not stripped of any committee assignments.  (Is mild scolding an option?)
