About
a controversy created by an infamous quote from CNN's news anchor, Don Lemo's hypocritical quote – which in the same breath: claimed that white men are the biggest threat in America, and that people should stop demonizing others.
Origin.
during a discussion about a recent mass shooting in a supermarket, with two African-American people dead. in Kentucky
Don Lemon said this quote:
" "we need to stop demonizing people, and realize that the biggest threat to our country are white men, most of them radicalized to the right and we have to start doing something about them, there is no travel ban on them… there is white guy ban, so what do we do about that?"
which caused outrage in the right-wing media and political Youtubers.
Reaction
Amazing. I thought this was some sort of joke quote taken out of context but no… it’s just Don Lemon being a moron. Unfortunately this is how so many leftists actually think.
Disgusting!
Imagine the outrage if you changed “white men” with any other demographic? https://t.co/lLanLLRdy1
