'Fox And Friends' Host Apologizes For 'Callous' Remark About Homeless People
HuffPost
Brian Kilmeade has a history of saying insulting things while on the air.
“Fox and Friends” co-host Brian Kilmeade apologized for suggesting homeless people with mental health issues should be killed.
“I wrongly said they should get lethal injections,” Kilmeade said Sunday on Fox News. “I apologize for that extremely callous remark. I’m obviously aware that not all mentally ill homeless people act as the perpetrator did in North Carolina and that so many homeless people deserve our empathy and compassion.”
Kilmeade made the shocking remarks during Wednesday’s segment of “Fox and Friends.” While Kilmeade and fellow co-hosts Ainsley Earhardt and Lawrence Jones were talking about the fatal stabbing of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska while she was riding public transportation in North Carolina, they argued the stabbing suspect, who reportedly has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, should have never been on the streets.
Jones said that, because homeless people and mentally ill people don’t want to receive help, they should be in jail. That’s when Kilmeade chimed in.
“Or, uh, involuntary lethal injection. Or something,” Kilmeade said. “Just kill ’em.”
