Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) might be wishing she had taken Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) advice not to hold town hall meetings after she got booed and cursed at a town hall event in Westfield, Indiana, on Friday. [...] People in the central Indiana towns shouted things like, “You’re a f**king liar!” and “Do your job!” at Spartz, who has made a name for herself as one of the more far-right members of Congress.
A person can make a mistake, realize they were wrong, and change their mind. This is the basis of personal growth. Insults are not an appropriate response. This only promotes division when you should be looking for allies.

I know how that feels. I almost went down that rabbit hole during the Obama era.
