[Nextrush]

The country is 37 trillion dollars in debt but that is not the solution by a longshot.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I’m with Brian on this one. They are a waste of air. They put rabid dogs down. Why not rabid trannies? The trannie bastards are running up one heck of a body count.

[ConservativeMind]

I sure understand the sentiment.

These people have to be locked up or get the death penalty.

People need to shoot to kill someone physically attacking them or someone else. It is self-defense.

Instead, we coddle the insane and give them more leeway.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The incurably violent mental cases should be put on a "Devils Island" far removed from humankind.

[UnwashedPeasant]

Not “kill” them. “Abort” them.

It is socially acceptable to abort disabled people these days.

[RedMonqey]

No way.
Humanity already went down this road before.
We, as people, cannot afford to start something we know we cannot stop before millions die.

Who do you want to decide is “”mentally ill” enough to require a lethal solution?”

[Jamestown1630]

This is the last thing we need right now.

Did he really say this, and where?

[grey_whiskers]

But...but...that would get rid of most of the press and the Democrats' constituency, wouldn't it?

The only exception would be perdinavititis. /Chesterton, The Ball and the Cross>

[rexthecat]

What were the exact words he used?

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Send them to Martha’s Vineyard

[Carry_Okie]

This is “right up there” for a political unforced error by a prominent Republican.
Hope Fox fixes it.

[chud]

If he really did say this, he's going to be fired.
Fox News has fired big names before. They'll do it again.

[Jamestown1630]

IF he said it, it’s appalling. But it’s hard to know if anything online is true anymore.

[No name given]

I agree big time.

[Mustangman]

He didn’t really say that..did he?

[Nervous Tick]

>> Instead, we coddle the insane

... and send them to the streets with easy access to all sorts of drugs. What could go wrong??!?

[Forward the Light Brigade]

Brian’s ill thought out and insensitive comments are up there with those who cheered Charlie Kirk’s death. People have loved ones who suffer from a mental illness. Shame on you Brian—I thought you were better than that.

>> If he really did say this, he’s going to be fired.

For what? It may not be the best solution, or the most righteous solution, but it’s a defensible solution (in the context of exploring the solution space).
