Tucker Carlson is an American, so apparently he understands what its like to be black man in the US. What a huge ass-clown.
Carlson then introduced the former wide receiver [an African-American] and said while he supports freedom of protest and would listen to arguments against police brutality, kneeling during the anthem was an attack on a symbol of America.
"The oppression that African-Americans and other races are getting in America, it's bad," Mitchell responded. "And I think America can be, it can be great again if you stop the racial profiling, if you stop a lot of things that’s happening in America. We can both stand now."
Carlson responded: "It just seems like an overstatement. I understand people are upset about specific cases where people are killed by the police."
"But Tucker, you could never understand. You could never understand. You don’t live it," Mitchell said.
"Well, actually I can understand cause I am an American, OK, whatever," Carlson claimed.
Mitchell attempted to interject, but Carlson spoke over him, bristling at the notion that he wasn't able to understand the oppression of black Americans.
"Hey, slow down," Carlson said. "I'm an American, and I have... Don't pull that crap on me."
Mitchell told him it wasn't crap, and the Fox host told him he understood "some things are upsetting."
"You can understand that, but I live it though," Mitchell said.
