‘The View’ co-host suggests the biggest problem with gun ownership is white male Fox News viewers

Left-wingers have pounced to exploit the shooting of a black Kansas City teenager by an elderly white homeowner and, true to form, it is all about fomenting racial division, something that few are more adept at than Sunny Hostin and the race-obsessed “The View” co-host popped off with one of her typically idiotic takes on what the REAL issue with gun ownership is.

According to the incorrigible race-baiter, the problem with gun violence can be boiled down to being as simple as black and white, as in white folks who are “radicalized” from watching Fox News, a stunningly racist opinion that is, sadly, par for the course on the set of the popular ABC daytime gabfest and its gaggle of screeching left-wing banshees.

“I honestly think, certainly, we know that America is the only country in the world that has more guns than people and those guns are owned by about 30 percent of the population – uh three – three percent of the population, and largely they’re men and they’re largely white men,” Hostin said after co-host Joy Behar remarked that she felt safer from being shot during a trip to Rome than she does in the USA.

“And I think what you are seeing happening is that people are being radicalized by Fox News, they’re being radicalized by other right-wing media, and they’re being taught to fear people that don’t look like them,” Hostin added, rolling a CNN clip of an interview between Don Lemon and the grandson of 84-year-old Andrew Lester who threw his grandpa under the bus as a racist Fox News watcher.

“I feel like a lot of people of that generation are caught up in this 24-hour news cycle of fear and paranoia, perpetuated by some other news stations and he was fully into that,” 28-year-old Klint Ludwig told Lemon. “Sit and watched Fox News all day every day blaring in his living room. And I think that stuff reinforces this negative view of minority groups and leaves people to be — doesn’t necessarily lead people to be racist but it reinforces and galvanizes racist people.”

Hostin then added, “So, this is his grandson who obviously loves him saying – explaining the motivation behind at least behind that shooting.”

What the show’s resident racial arsonist left out was a conflicting view that was expressed by Lester’s other grandson, Klint’s older brother, 30-year-old Daniel Ludwig who threw a bucket of ice-cold water on the media’s vilification of the elderly Lester as a white racist who was egged on by Fox News.

“It’s just sad and I wish it didn’t happen,” Daniel Ludwig told the Kansas City Star. “It seems like a bunch of mistakes in a row that resulted in a tragedy. I mean, a lot of mistakes all the way around, unfortunately.”

The demonizing of Fox News viewers is a continuation of a theme from earlier this week when co-host Joy Behar smeared American servicemen and servicewomen as potentially dangerous extremists who should not be allowed to watch the conservative news network, calling for it to be banned from military installations on Wednesday’s show.

“One more point, you know that Fox is broadcasted on military bases. Now, that is a tax-funded facility. Those are tax-funded facilities. They should not be broadcasting lies to our military. We are paying for that,” brayed the obnoxious New Yorker in a voice reminiscent of a foghorn. “Those boys and girls are going out there, defending this country, risking their lives, and they’re being fed lies on a regular basis! That needs to be changed immediately!

Co-host Sara Haines was less willing to rush to judgment against white male Fox News-viewing gun owners, offering up a surprisingly nuanced take that took into account other factors that don’t get much attention from corrupt, biased media but have greatly contributed to the ongoing degradation of American society.

“I think in this instance the instinct to shoot first is a really complicated problem with a lot of different branches. I think the obsession with social media, time spent on social media, the kind of numbing of something social that’s antisocial. I think the consumption of porn,” she said. “And now we’re getting into some of the lane of a lot of male of all ages. Video games. A lot of these things are removing that humanity, that empathy, that connection.”

“We’re also watching the degradation of church,” Haines continued, “And I am not an institutional church person, I was raised in the church, I’ve got a lot of issues. But one thing you can say across religions and most churches is there’s a morality component. There’s a duty to serve to your community, your families, to people that are different from you. There’s a lot of lessons there of giving, loving, not judging. We’re seeing major reduction in attendance and membership in that.”
