Fox “News” hosts really hate people:
LAWRENCE JONES (FOX HOST): We don’t have to — we feel so compassionate because you see the mental health crisis happening.
AINSLEY EARHARDT (FOX HOST): You just get — exactly.
JONES But it’s not our job — we shouldn’t have to live in fear while they figure out what is going on right there.
EARHARDT: Right, right.
JONES: Put him in a mental institution, put him in a jail, and you guys figure it out. But people having to duck and dive on the trains and the buses, walking through the street, this is one case, but this is happening all across the country, and it’s not a money issue. They have given billions of dollars to mental health and the homeless population. A lot of them don’t want to take the programs, a lot of them don’t want to get the help that is necessary. You can’t give them a choice. Either you take the resources that we’re going to give you and — or you decide that you are going to be locked up in jail. That’s the way it has to be now.
BRIAN KILMEADE (FOX HOST): Or involuntary lethal injection.
JONES: Yeah.
KILMEADE : Or something. Just kill them.
EARHARDT: Yeah, Brian, why did it have to get to this point?
And she didn’t ask that question in the sense of “what the fuck is wrong with you, you psychotic cunt?”, which is the question a normal person would ask if someone said the homeless deserve death for doing bad things. (By “involuntary lethal injection”, no less. What an idea to just… you know, leap to.) But these are not normak people, these are Fox hosts, and Kilmeade is a particularly vile example. I wonder if he imagines this as a general solution to the homelessness problem… you know, can’t have homelessness without homeless people…
But remember: it’s left-wing rhetoric that causes violence in America. Obviously.
