Fox News political analyst Juan Williams is being lambasted on Twitter for his controversial comments about the tragic murder of Uber Eats driver Mohammad Anwar by two teenage girls. Williams, who co-hosts the Fox News show 'The Five', said, "I don’t think they intended to kill anybody. They were looking to have a joy ride. It just went way wrong, way out of control, and ended up in a gross tragedy."

His usage of the term 'joy ride' led to a storm of controversy on social media as users slammed him for 'sticking up for those murderers'.

Co-host Jesse Watters interrupted Williams stating that the assailants brought a stun gun which is not usually brought for a 'joy ride' .

Bet this racist little pric- would be saying something much different if the driver had been black and the kids white. He is a waste of oxygen

I didn’t know he was fired, either. Best news all week.

Sadly, they’ll rehire him before the summer is over.

Sometimes I think he is kept on just as a straw man. Other times I think he is just a TWOT. There is a mute button on any remote. I use it when his mouth opens.

That’s what he was hired for. That, plus they were so proud of themselves to hire someone of his “stature”, albeit tarnished among liberals.

Were any of the “joy riders” white?

Is he, really? So he was ultimately hired and/or approved to be hired by the Leftist owners of FoxNews corp only to be destined as a foil to demonstrate the idiocy of the Left, again, by the Leftist owners of FoxNews? Hmmm.

Juan Williams isn’t a “phony” at all. He’s just a TV character, not a real person. They ALL are.

Sure, they use their real names and they talk about serious topics. But Juan Williams should be taken no more seriously than you’d take Kermit the Frog or Bart Simpson or that wacky doctor from “House.”

“He [Juan] was fired from NPR years ago for saying that seeimg a muslim on a plane he was taking made him nervous.”

Fired for speaking the truth. As they say, a stopped clock is right twice a day.

“Was he fired ?
Yay, if true!!”

Absolutely not, Juan is a democrat and the head of Fox news wouldn’t touch Juan with a 10 foot pole. Anyone who has a (D) behind their name is “UNTOUCHABLE”.

Interestingly enough his son is a Republican which sometimes makes me wonder if Juan Williams is simply playing a role. If so he’s very good at it !

Watching Juan on TV is the equivalent of an electronic lobotomy.

It seriously lowers your IQ.

I agree, there are so many other things he should have been fired for. But I don’t see how this statement is antiMuslim.

He was fired at NPR for not being commie enough. Has never failed that test at loathsome Fox.

JW is the classic Caucasian-hating racist communist...

His biggest problem was living with his 33 IQ...

Way back when I still watched FOX, he never once uttered a single intelligent or unbiased statement...

Good riddance... He’ll probably show up as a presidential advisor next week...

It’s not that the negresses intended to kill anyone, they just didn’t give a damn if someone got killed.

The title is misleading by not including NPR as the station that fired him 10 years ago.

The only bright spot is, both girls will probably go to prison for something else.
