I would be almost as embarrassed to serve on a ship with that name as a ship named "Sultan Hussein Obama"

What an absolute joke.
I guess they couldn’t find someone more worthy out of the countless heroes in the military who have given their lives in the last 15 years.
But that wouldn’t fit the narrative.
Absolute disgrace.

1. I have no ill feeling toward Ms. Giffords. I wish her further success in recovery from her tragic wounds. That said, she has done nothing (no thing at all) to warrant a United States Navy ship as a namesake.
2. From the piece... Whether she actually supports these things as a former gun owner and moderate Second Amendment supporter, or is being used by handlers in her weakened post-assault condition, is unclear. Close unregulated contact or interviews with her is not allowed.
So, yes it is Stolen Honor but (one does not know for certain, but one suspects) likely from those who organize the anti 2A community, not Ms. Giffords.

Admirals Stockdale or Denton have vessels named in their honor? With apologies, my good FRiend, I am not sure of your point.

Okay, I have (yet another) dumb question.
The USN has ordered 20 LCS, including 100 of this particular design. They appear to be lightly armed and lightly armored.
What exactly does the Navy plan to do with these?

Probably designed to escort the USS Cesar Chavez running taxpayer dollars to Havana.

We should stop naming vessels after people, certainly live ones.
