BS Headline...She (McCarthy) didn't say that.

You're right - what she said was -
"Rep. Carolyn McCarthy — a strong proponent for women serving in military combat roles — appeared on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight Thursday to make the case for Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s assault weapons ban. To that end, McCarthy argued that women should use traditional rifles rather than assault rifles because the former would would be “easier for a woman” to use.........................."
So to paraphrase what she did say was ".. women should be able to serve in combat but would have trouble handling an assault rifle because they are women."
That reads like a sexist comment.
