Tucker Carlson: Man accusing me of assault called my daughter a 'whore'
The Hill ^ | November 10, 2018 | Joe Concha & Tal Axelrod

Tucker Carlson responded to attorney Michael Avenatti's claim he was investigating the Fox News host "assaulted" a "gay Latino immigrant," last month, with Carlson explaining in a detailed statement that the man had called his teenage daughter a "whore" at a Virginia country club.

The response comes after Avenatti, who has clashed with Carlson before, tweeted a video that appeared to show Carlson telling someone "get the f**k out of here. But the video does not show Carlson assaulting anyone as alleged.

In an extended statement provided to The Hill, Carlson said the man who called his 19-year-old daughter a whore also called her another highly derogatory term, which prompted his college-aged son to throw a glass of wine in the man's face.

“On October 13, I had dinner with two of my children and some family friends at the Farmington Country Club in Charlottesville, Virginia," Carlson begins. "Toward the end of the meal, my 19-year-old daughter went to the bathroom with a friend. On their way back through the bar, a middle aged man stopped my daughter and asked if she was sitting with Tucker Carlson. My daughter had never seen the man before. She answered: ‘That’s my dad,’ and pointed to me. The man responded, ‘Are you Tucker’s whore?’ He then called her a ‘f*** c***.’

"My daughter returned to the table in tears," Carlson continues. "She soon left the table and the club. My son, who is also a student, went into the bar to confront the man. I followed. My son asked the man if he’d called his sister a ‘whore’ and a ‘c**t.’ The man admitted he had, and again become profane. My son threw a glass of red wine in the man’s face and told him to leave the bar, which he soon did."

"Immediately after the incident, I described these events to the management of the Farmington Country Club," Carlson explains. "The club spent more than three weeks investigating the incident. Last week, they revoked the man’s membership and threw him out of the club."

"I love my children," he adds. "It took enormous self-control not to beat the man with a chair, which is what I wanted to do. I think any father can understand the overwhelming rage and shock that I felt seeing my teenage daughter attacked by a stranger."

But I restrained myself. I did not assault this man, and neither did my son," Carlson concludes. "That is a lie. Nor did I know the man was gay or Latino, not that it would have mattered. What happened on October 13 has nothing to do with identity politics. It was a grotesque violation of decency. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life.”

The incident going public on Saturday comes three days after a group associated with left-wing antifa activists converged on Carlson's home in Washington, D.C., while chanting "Racist scumbag, leave town!" and warning on social media Carlson and his family "were not safe."

"BREAKING. Activists ring doorbell, hold protest at the Washington D.C. area home of @TuckerCarlson, racist, sexist, bigoted FOX News personality. So far no one has opened the door," read a since-removed tweet by Smash Racism DC, which associates itself with antifa.

The tweet, which is no longer online after the group's Twitter account was suspended, included video of the chants being made outside Carlson's home.

“Tucker Carlson, we will fight! We know where you sleep at night!" it added.

"Every night you spread fear into our homes—fear of the other, fear of us, and fear of them. Each night you tell us we are not safe. Tonight you’re reminded that we have a voice," another tweet read. "Tonight, we remind you that you are not safe either."

The Hill has reached out to Avenatti and Farmingdale Country Club for comment.

Why are there gay Latino immigrants here? Who imported them?

“”What happened on October 13””

From that date to the date of the protests at Tucker’s home gave the idiot enough time to make his complaint known to the “right people” who finance that sort of thing and that’s why it took place at that particular time. Nothing that Tucker says on his show each night would have warranted that kind of attack at his home - other than voicing his opinions on illegals etc., which still shouldn’t have been the reason.

The episode at the country club would appear to the reason for that...and I hope arrests and prosecutions are in the works for those involved that night at Tucker’s home.

“”Some jerk like O’Reilly yeah, they might incite this kind of crap “”

Garbage - if that had been O’Reilly and he had slugged the guy, he would have been a hero to you. O’Reilly isn’t/wasn’t a jerk. He would have done exactly what the rest of you swear you would have!

“our society”

We have no society. Nor law.

“The Rest”

It’s true. But those are the old days. Difficult to navigate right now and some will suffer as we transition. Tough days ahead, gird up. Act.

any thug who comes on my property (which a few have) hear the sound of me chambering a round into my .30 carbine which is very loud followed by me yelling “drop to the ground or die” tends to cause the intruder to run backwards at 40 mph!!!!

It is just a matter of time before these radicals are hurling Molotov cocktails into the homes of conservatives, planting bombs are even engaging in political assassinations. Should conservatives defend their homes and families with force the media and leftists will condemn them. Things will soon get ugly

Ha! Screw ‘em. I’ve never had a twitter account and don’t miss it a bit. Had a facebook for a couple weeks quite a few years ago but unsubscribed, don’t miss that one either. :^)

It used to be those were “fighting words” and Tucker would have had a sound defense if he had clocked the guy.

>> Under the law, no insult justifies a violent response

Call the aggressor a ‘nasty fagot’ in response, and let’s see how proportional the law truly is.

Carlson needs to dox the guy.

We need to know:

• where he lives
• where he works
• what he drives.

I think he is homeless. He got kicked out of his office because he didn’t pay his rent. His home was foreclosed on. He has no place to go.

“MF’er would be eating soup for the rest of his life if he spoke like that to my girl.”

A decent lawyer would get you out of charges too. The supreme court has even ruled on the legitimacy of “fighting words”

Wouldn’t publicly calling a man’s daughter a whore be considered “fighting words”?

Yes, and that’s what was intended. Dumbass trying to instigate a lucrative lawsuit wouldn’t have a legal leg to stand on

Carlson needs to dox the guy. The era of learning what the left is about has passed. Now is the time to fight.


This guy is just a punk. Hillary and Maxine started it....
