Full response, for context…
quote:

And I don't know anyone in the United States in the last 24 years who’s been killed by radical Islam. I do know a lot of people who have killed themselves. I know people who’ve died of drug ODs, more than a few. I know people who can’t get jobs. None of the boys in my daughter’s class can get jobs, none of those white boys can get jobs. They’re being destroyed by Adderall and video games and porn. I see millions of Americans being destroyed, and none of it is at the hands of radical Islam. Is radical Islam more dangerous than OnlyFans? It’s not even close. Turning some huge percentage of American women into prostitutes. That’s not radical Islam doing that

Loyal FOX News watchers who have been programmed to believe Randy Fine, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham and Mark Levin are America First don't care about context. They just parrot whatever the FOX News tells them to believe

No fan of Tucker's anymore. But eight pages and no one questioned that video ?

A terrorist shot a NG in the face.

I can't get over how many people cant separate the man from the career.
He's not a investigating reporter. He's an actor.
He's playing a role, always has been.

But yeah, Qatar bought him like they bought most of America.

You are 100% correct.

That is not what Carlson said. This is the actual quote: “And I don’t know anyone in the United States in the last 24 years who’s been killed by radical Islam…”

Your quote and Tucker’s actual quote aren’t equivalent statements. In context of the entire interview, Carlson is clearly stating that he doesn’t know anyone personally in the U.S. who has been killed by radical Islam since 2001, not stating that no one has been killed by radical Islam in the past 24 years.

With that said, I certainly acknowledge that our personal experiences should not — in and of itself — preclude the existence of a larger threat. Just because we may not know anyone personally killed by radical Islam doesn’t mean it isn’t a national security risk.

To illustrate: I might not personally know anyone who has died from a fentanyl overdose, but I wouldn’t deny that the opioid crisis is real. Similarly, even if Carlson doesn’t personally know anyone who was killed by radical Islam, that doesn’t mean it’s not a threat to our nation’s national security.

So we can certainly debate whether radical Islam is a threat to liberty in this country regardless of Carlson’s personal experience, but we should first engage with Carlson’s actual argument, not with a misquoted version. The distinction here is significant if we are going to have a meaningful discussion over Carlson’s actual argument.

First, let's start with the lie in the OP. Carlson said that he did not know anyone in America killed by radical Islam.
Second, Carlson's entire MO since he left Fox news is to try to garner attention, get clicks and likes and get noticed. He will say anything or talk or have any guest on his show that is controversial. He's going for shock value most of the time, and it's just a sad act now.

Could not have said it better myself. Too many people here with reading and / or listening comprehension problems. Or just being lazy.

Having said that, his personal experience does not paint the full picture, as you stated.

Anyone who has read or listened to the full quote understands the larger point he was trying to make.

I think we may be talking past each other here. Again, Carlson said he doesn’t know anyone in the U.S. who’s been killed by radical Islam in the last 24 years.

I speak only for myself but I personally don’t known anyone who has been killed by radical Islam either. That is a personal observation that is factually true.

With that said, I fully recognize the threat posed by such radical ideologies. As I indicated above, even if someone hasn’t lost a personal acquaintance to radical Islam it doesn’t mean we should ignore the broader security risks posed by such ideologies.

That is why I fully support more stringent immigration policies, particularly from countries where the cultural values might conflict with free and pluralistic societies. That doesn’t change the fact that the OP’s subject heading is factually wrong.

Carlson’s statement was specifically about his personal experience. It is important to engage with Carlson’s actual words rather than discussing something he didn’t say.

If you are aware of anyone that TC knew who has been killed by radical Islam in the US in the past 24 years, tell us who you think it was.

He is right about all the personal stuff he is seeing as a problem. And we need to fix all those issues.

Problem with Tucker right now is that he has become dismissive of the concerns of Islam we should have. He has this thing about "well it's not as bad as the other, so stop being stupid over dealing with it" distraction attitude.

We need to be highly concerned over both just as equally, the just need to be handled differently.
