CNN’s Don Lemon Hesitates to Call Chicago Torture Video ‘Evil,’ Blames Bad Parenting Instead
2017-01-06
[MEDIAITE] CNN host Don Lemon pushed back Wednesday night after a conservative panelist labeled four Chicagoans torturing a mentally handicapped man and posting the video live on Facebook “evil.”

Daily Caller columnist Matt Lewis called the video “sickening” and said the assault– during which the assailants chanted “F*** white people” and “F** Donald Trump“– was just another example of the problem of evil. “At the end of the day, you just try to wrap your head around evil,“ he said. “That’s what this is: it’s evil, it’s brutality, it’s man’s inhumanity to man.”

While denouncing the video, Lemon wasn’t willing to go that far. “I don’t think it’s evil,” he said. “I don’t think it’s evil. I think these are young people and I think they have bad home training.”

“I have no idea who is raising these young people, because no one I know on earth who is 17-years-old or 70-years-old would ever think of treating another person like that,” he continued. “You wonder, at 18-years-old, where is your parent, where is your guardian?
If you're convinced there's no such thing as Evil then this little recreational session by street lice wasn't evil.

#8  Does he means eliminating fathers from many black families?

#7  If Mr. Lemon had been more clever than he thinks he is, he would have blamed 'fast food'.

#5  It's all by design. Destroy the family, substitute the state as the 'bread winner'. De-normalize morality. Rationalize the de-civilization of a society. Lower education standards, lower moral standards, all for one group who get a pass based solely on their politically determined identity. Declare anyone a racist who disagrees.

#4  Evil and horrible parents produce evil and horrible offspring.
Nevertheless that has little bearing on the problem of what to do after these monstrous offspring jump out of their closets and prey on the innocent among the rest of us. The past can't be changed.

#3  I would agree about the parents. Evil and horrible parents produce evil and horrible offspring.

We not only need to go after these monsters, but the pits that spawned them.

#2  I think they have bad home training.

A response for Mr. Lemon. Watch his head spin.
"Feral children are not a new problem."

#1  "In order for evil to triumph good men only need do nothing." If you endorse evil then you will eventually be called on it. I suggest using a large foot ball stadium be used to celebrate BLM and invite all the white enablers...then drop the fuel air bomb.
