- "A couple of weeks ago, | was watching video of people fighting on the street in Washington. A group of Trump guys surrounded an Antifa kid and started pounding the living shit out of him. It was three against one, at least. Jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously. It's not how white men fight. Yet suddenly | found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they'd hit him harder, kill him. | really wanted them to hurt the kid. | could taste it. Then somewhere deep in my brain, an alarm went off: this isn’t good for me. I'm becoming something | don’t want to be. The Antifa creep is a human being. Much as | despise what he says and does, much as I'm sure I'd hate him personally if | knew him, | shouldn’t gloat over his suffering. | should be bothered by it. | should remember that somewhere somebody probably loves this kid, and would be crushed if he was killed. If | don’t care about those things, if | reduce people to their politics, how am | better than he is? " --Tucker Carlson (remote)
