Honestly, I tried to find a quote or two to post on their own, but this entire clip is just sickening and absurd. Want to know why so many people in America are passionate about their misinformed beliefs? This is why.
Truly I don’t even know what to do about this.
Fox’s Brian Kilmeade wants to start bugging mosques in the aftermath of the Boston bombings.

Fox News chose to skip President Obama’s statement on the background checks proposal that failed to pass in the Senate on Wednesday. The bipartisan proposal on expanded background checks, a move that is supported by an overwhelming majority of Americans, fell short with the Senate voting 54-46 against the amendment.
Broadcast and cable networks interrupted regular programming to bring viewers Obama’s remarks, except Fox News. The cable network stayed on “The Five,” where hosts were discussing the media coverage of the Boston bombings.
A father who lost a child in the Newtown mass shooting introduced the president. Fox News briefly cut to show video of the president taking the podium, while the hosts continued talking about the media coverage of Boston. At the end of the “The Five,” co-host Greg Gutfeld apologized for cutting out of the Obama press conference. “I think that should have been handled better,” he said.
(1) The Erik Rush quote is real, from his real Twitter.
(2) I don’t care if “kill all the Muslims” was meant to be “sarcastic” or “a joke.” Like, I really don’t. Not sorry about it. If you care to defend him on this, you have missed the point entirely. He also noted, “It’s nice to see all the Islamist apologists standing up for those who would waste them in a heartbeat.”
I’m sure that the millions of Muslims in America and, hey, people of color who ignorance has assured are treated like terrorists in the aftermath of tragedies, who are bracing for the undeserved fallout of this horrifying event and are afraid to walk around their cities today think Erik Rush is really fucking hilarious.

PS- Here is a fox to make you smile a little bit
Fox News contributor Erik Rush on the Boston Marathon bombings: kill all Muslims.
Rush is currently engaged in a Twitter war with some rightfully upset people, doling out lovely responses like “make me skank,” and “or what, bitch?”
Lovely.
Weird that Fox News/many conservatives seem to only care about the gays and sexually assaulted women when it is useful for anti-gun control politics.
