'Nope! Done': Tucker Carlson Shuts Down Interview After Guest Said Chauvin Used Excessive ForceAnd it's funny how the Newsweek article opens:
Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night ended an interview with a former New York City corrections officer after the guest criticized former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for using excessive force when he killed George Floyd.
They make it sound like the corrections officer believed Chauvin should have used less force to kill George Floyd.

Yeah. From now on police can only use as much force as an officer could reasonably believe

Fuck them both -- Tucker maybe you can visit your precious buddy cop murderer in jail and stay there with him for the rest of his sentence...

(13,582 posts)3. Yeah. From now on police can only use as much force as an officer could reasonably believe
to be sufficient to kill black people. No more overkill. If four shots will do the job, don't empty your gun. It saves ammo.

That's from Evan Hurst's detailed report of Tucker's show last night in Wonkette.com. Well worth your time.
