Police saw the entire thing, Moran grabbed his girlfriend's head by the neck and slammed her head first into a metal trash can.  https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/crime/guilty-plea-for-son-of-us-rep-moran-in-assault-case/2012/12/12/6c7165a6-4489-11e2-8061-253bccfc7532_story.html

The actual police report; states EMT said she had a broken nose and broken eye socket which also means a skull fracture  http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/page/local/patrick-moran-police-report/13/

It is 2021.  Where do people actually stand on violence against women?  Are uber liberals in Alexandria willing to eat their words with all the things they said against Trump and other Republicans but give this guy, who plead guilty, a free ride?  I am not republican by ANY means, but this one is a hard NO!

There is absolutely no way I would vote for this guy. I really hope he doesn't get in on some sort of name recognition...

NP here. I would not vote for this guy either and I am sure his privilege of being white and being the son of a former Congressman helps him.  I cannot imagine if he were a POC people would ever give him a thought. Regardless, even if he is a changed man and says he has gone to therapy and has turned his life around, sure that's great to get one more woman beater off the street but it does not qualify him to earn my vote to represent Alexandria in City Council.  I am all for rehabilitation of violent offenders, but that has no bearing on whether that makes him suitable to serve in public office. Great that he's married with a kid, I sure hope for them he has changed.  But it's a hard no for me that I would ever vote for someone that beat up a woman.  Period. [/quote]

Ever hear the story of DC's two time mayor being a black, wife beating, crack smoking felon?
