Absolute Mayhem: Cornel West Goes Berserk on Fox News' Hannity

Absolute Mayhem: Cornel West Goes Berserk on Fox News' Hannity

Source: Fox News

Cornel West and civil rights attorney Leo Terrell were supposed to have a civil segment on defunding the police, urban violence, and Democratic incompetence at addressing these issues, but things went off the hinges almost immediately. It was absolute mayhem on Sean Hannity’s show on Fox News. Hannity prefaced the segment about the Democrats’ inability to govern, which was interrupted by West. The shouting began almost immediately. Terrell hit back at West for just recycling old Democratic talking points. He then tried to have a discussion with West, “black man to black man,” which West did not take well at all. The two shouted over one another, with Terrell not liking West calling him “brother.”

I don’t think Cornell West & Sean Hannity are fixing racism tonight guys.— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) June 10, 2020

“You’re not my brother,” shouted Terrell.  He added that West was hurting black people with his positions. 

“Are you a Christian too? Then, check yourself, negro,” shouted West. 

“Oh, my god—you have lost control,” said Terrell in response. “You’re a dinosaur.”

And that was pretty much the segment right there. Hannity tried to intervene but to no avail. The question about defunding the police was just as rambunctious. 

It was popcorn-worthy for sure, folks.

Tensions across the nation have increased immensely over the death of George Floyd on May 25 at the hands of Minneapolis Police. Floyd was arrested on suspicion of using fake currency. He was handcuffed, but Officer Derek Chauvin decided to keep his knee on the back of Floyd's neck for nearly ten minutes. Floyd died as a result. He could be heard pleading with officers that he couldn't breathe. His death was captured on video. Chauvin is now charged with second-degree murder. The three other officers were charged with aiding and abettng second-degree murder. All four, of course, lost their shields. 

I agree that there should have been protests over this incident. In fact, it's one of the few moments where both sides agreed, but that ended when the rioting started. You cannot have a disucssion about police reform when cops are being targeted, beaten, shot at, and run over with vehicles. The rioting, looting, and vandalism also undercut the need for a national dialogue. When order breaks down, law and order always win out. We're dealing with a left-wing mob. It's time to put them down.

He used the word negro at least 3 times.

Cornel West looked like he was ranting and raving from an insane asylum.

But then Harvard these days is an insane asylum.

The author says:

Why? The officers were fired within hours, without due process.

Then one officer was charged, then all four officers were charged.

What is the purpose of the protests?

I was watching FoxNews when this segment came on, but I had the mute button on. I glanced up at the TV and Cornel West looked like he was possessed by a demon. WTH?

As long as they have a Democrat Party it is here to stay. As long as they are fools and idiots there will be a Democrat Party.

No Matt. There most certainly did not “need” to be protests, which are basically kill whitey rallies.

You know you’re living in bizzaro world when Leo Terrell is the most rational person on the screen.

No, you're watching the Sean Hannity Show.

Cornell West is such a bag of wind, and he has had his @ss kissed by every leftie on the planet, and even conservatives are polite to him because... racism.

His nonsense has never been challenged directly, and, like a spoiled three year old, he has a tantrum the first time anyone disagrees with him.

Cornel West is a communist who has been masquerading as an intellectual for decades.
He sounds smart & naive people are easily fooled by his moralistic sloganeering.
Should Hannity et al even be giving him a mainstream audience?

What were they protesting? Nearly everyone agreed with them that what the officer did was wrong, including the people they beat, the owners of the businesses they burned, and even the police they abused.
