A U.S. Navy ship named after former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords will be commissioned in a waterfront ceremony in Galveston, Texas, on Saturday.
The Gabrielle Giffords is an Independence-class littoral combat ship. It is the 10th littoral combat ship in the Navy, the 16th Navy ship named after a woman and the 13th ship named after a living person, according to a Navy video released on Friday.

They named an a ship after an undistinguished congresswoman because a mentally disturbed man shot her?

HOW does this happen and WHO made the decision? Time for that person(s) to GO!

A holdover order from the 0dungo regime.
Her claim to fame is really that she's a gun grabber.
What a travesty.
Wish the swamp draining would speed-up a bit.

I was going to make a joke, but as one of Gabby’s former constituents, I can’t overcome the rising bile feeling that hits every time I hear her name.

Since President Trump is the commander-in-chief he should fly down there and say “While the official name is USN Gabby Giffords I hereby christen this ship “The Deplorables”!

Sort of ironic a navel ship is fitted with all types of guns and deadly weapons like 30 mm guns would honor a anti gun nutter...

And it will sink when confronted with battle, just like any Democrat, because they are cowards.

Giffords was pro-gun until she was brain damaged and has been used by the leftists ever since.
