The View hosts slam Don Lemon as ‘wrong’ after he says we ‘need to be honest’ about Ma’Khia Bryant shooting
THE VIEW slammed Don Lemon as “wrong” on Thursday after the CNN host claimed we “need to be honest” about the police shooting of 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant.
Lemon claimed on his show on Wednesday night that Americans need to “acknowledge that police have jobs to do” as he urged caution in jumping to conclusions.

“Friends often disagree,” The View host Sunny Hostin said.
“And Don is wrong here,” she insisted.
“Why is deadly force the first order of business and especially the first order of business with black and brown people in this country?
“Why is it ok? We shouldn’t live in a country where it’s acceptable to shoot a 16-year-old four times in the chest over a fight,” Hostin continued.

“It goes from zero to execution very, very quickly when threre is a black and brown person involved and that is just the truth.”
Hostin also criticized Lemon for comparing Bryant’s shooting with the death of George Floyd.
The host listed a number of white teens who had been brought into custody safely after shooting people dead as she claimed that Lemon needed to compare “apples with apples.”
