Well this isn’t the first time someone on Fox News said something that made many viewers scratch their heads.
This time a Fox News guest said that the city of San Francisco should be focused on solving its homelessness crisis instead of trying to improve the language used in its justice system and that they should focus on the homeless that “just shot up marijuana.”
On Thursday’s Outnumbered, a panel of four women and one male guest spoke about San Francisco’s new language guidelines.
“If you thought San Francisco couldn’t find more ways to push political correctness, check this out,” co-host Melissa Francis said in the segment.
Guest David Avella, who chairs GOPAC, an organization that trains Republican candidates, remarked, “Actions speak louder than words, and what we also didn’t hear from our friends in San Francisco is what new words should we use for victims. So often over the last couple of years, the focus in California has been on the defendant, not on the victims … California has tried to clear out their prisons and yet every year they continue to have overcrowded prisons.”
“And the focus ought to be on a society that follows the law, not allowing people to defecate in the streets,” he continued. “Not allowing individuals to lay on the street having just shot up with marijuana …”
“Heroin,” a cohost said to correct him.
“Heroin, and having a needle sticking out of them,” he said. “We ought to be focused on solving crimes.”
