On Monday, CNN news anchor Don Lemon raised eyebrows after referring to white men as the “biggest terror threat” to the United States. Lemon then followed up by stating that there is “no travel ban” on white men, reports The Hill.
An Overview of Lemon’s Assertions
Over the past few weeks, Americans on all sides of the aisle have discussed policy matters which are of importance to them. Earlier this week, Lemon shared his opinion about which group of individuals bears the most responsibility for acts of terrorism and violence in this country.
“I keep trying to point out to people and not to demonize any one group or any one ethnicity. We keep thinking that the biggest terror threat is something else. The last time they did this, a couple hundred people came and they — you know, most of them did get into the country. Most of them tired — you know, got tuckered out before they made it to the border.”
The news anchor then stated that Americans must stop demonizing groups of people. This statement came right before he branded white men as terror threats.
