After the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf, Dominique Alexander of the Next Generation Action Network has said in a press conference that there is video evidence of the murder — and Jason Whitlock of “Fearless” is bracing himself for the aftermath.
And why is he bracing himself? Because he believes that the victim narrative being painted of suspect Karmelo Anthony — which has resulted in hundreds of thousands raised for him via GiveSendGo — is about to blow up in every one of his supporters' faces.
“Karmelo Anthony’s parents, the way he’s framed his entire press conference, were frustrated about the lack of communication they were getting from police,” Whitlock says, noting that what he believes is happening now, with the potential addition of video evidence, is that “this self-defense deal that y’all talking about is not backed up by video evidence.”
“So when he hears that, and the family hears that, they go into backpedal mode. ‘Hey get out there and tell people we’re being harassed, our lives are in jeopardy, we need more police protection,’” Whitlock predicts.
“Look at what Dominique Alexander did. He went out and told you guys this was bad information,” he continues. “There’s a backpedal going on, and the reason they’re backpedaling, and this is what has me concerned, is that this video is going to be so bad, so grotesque, so unfair, and is going to paint the people that have been running around trying to defend Karmelo Anthony in such a bad light.”
“They’re afraid that this [alleged] Karmelo Anthony stabbing of Austin Metcalf is going to make white people say, ‘Never again, you idiots that defended him,’” he adds.
And if the video is as horrific as Whitlock predicts, the violent reaction to the death of George Floyd will only make the case stronger against Anthony.
“White people are going to have their line that they draw on the sand, their never-forget moment,” he says. “They won’t be thinking about a 45-year-old career criminal filled up on enough fentanyl to kill 12 horses. They’re going to be thinking about a 17-year-old with a bright future, a committed Christian, a 3.97 grade point average, a Division I college football recruit, who had his life cut short because some black kid has no emotional control.”

On April 2, 2025, during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, a confrontation between two 17-year-old students, Karmelo Anthony from Centennial High School and Austin Metcalf from Memorial High School, turned deadly.
Anthony, who was sitting in the Memorial tent instead of his own team’s tent, was asked to leave by Metcalf. According to reports, Anthony refused and taunted Metcalf, saying, “Touch me and see what happens.” Metcalf then tried to physically remove Anthony from the tent, which resulted in Anthony pulling a knife out of his bag and stabbing him in the chest. Metcalf was rushed to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
The horrific incident has sparked national outrage — with many arguing that Anthony acted out of self-defense. The “Help Karmelo Official Fund” has already raised over $200,000.
Jason Whitlock says, “This is a cut-and-dry case.”
“Two high school kids had a verbal dispute, and one kid stabbed another kid in the heart. This is murder, and this isn't controversial.”
All this support for Karmelo, he argues, is the same toxic “black pride” that fueled the George Floyd riots.
“Karmelo Anthony's defense team and these nongovernment organizations that seem dedicated to driving racial division — they're pumping out information over social media that is clouding up a cut-and-dry case, and it is trying to draw a lot of sympathy and change the narrative on what transpired,” says Jason.
The majority of the support Anthony is receiving is “not organic,” he says. It’s “bought and paid for by the defense team.”
“People are being paid; key influencers are being paid to pump out speculative, inaccurate information intended to change the narrative around this,” he explains.
All of a sudden, the narrative that “Austin Metcalf was bullying Karmelo Anthony” and that “Karmelo Anthony was just standing his ground” is actively working to replace the truth, which is that “a kid responded to what he perceived as disrespect with violence.”
Anthony’s disproportionate aggression, Jason argues, is typical in the black community.
“This is how young black kids treat each other in their own all-black communities. If they sense and see any disrespect, they respond hyper-aggressively and often violently,” he says.
The justification of such violence is a consequence of “racial idolatry."
“When you take pride in your race, now you start defending it no matter what, and that's how you end up with heroes and statues of George Floyd. That's how you end up with a GoFundMe for Karmelo Anthony,” says Jason.

The death of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, is every parent’s nightmare. The circumstances make the loss even more devastating. Metcalf, a student at Memorial High School, was stabbed in the chest by another teen, Karmelo Anthony, after a brief argument.
Anthony, a student at Centennial High School, was reportedly sitting under the tent reserved for Memorial High. A witness told police that Metcalf asked Anthony to move. When Anthony refused, Metcalf reportedly grabbed him. At that point, according to the witness, Anthony pulled out a knife, stabbed Metcalf once in the chest, and fled the scene.
The people pushing identity politics are long on hubris and short on wisdom.
Police later arrested Anthony and charged him with first-degree murder. His bail was set at $1 million.
Austin’s twin brother, Hunter Metcalf, held him during his final moments, making the situation even more tragic.
As often happens — especially online — the story of Austin Metcalf’s death quickly shifted from a tragedy about a young life lost and a grieving family to a debate about race.
Metcalf was white. The accused, Karmelo Anthony, is black. Social media users, particularly on X, widely claimed that the case would have drawn national headlines and sparked protests if their races were reversed.
But the facts don’t support claims of media silence. NBC News, ABC News, and Fox News all covered the incident.
Still, accusations of selective coverage illustrate a broader frustration with “outrage inequity” — the notion that moral outrage and condemnation often hinge on the racial identities of both the victim and the accused. The primary indication of this phenomenon is the uneven application of moral indignation and condemnation based on particular victim-perpetrator color combinations.
Critics argue that progressives frequently engage in this pattern, particularly when racially motivated hate crimes make headlines.
In 2022, for example, Payton Gendron drove three hours to a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, where he fatally shot 10 black people. That attack allowed liberal commentators to reinforce a familiar narrative: White violence against black Americans stems from “whiteness” and “white supremacy.”
Progressives often cite slavery, Jim Crow-era lynchings, and even verbal altercations between people of different races as proof of a persistent hatred embedded in white identity.
A growing number of conservatives use incidents like Austin Metcalf’s killing to support their preferred narratives. They see Karmelo Anthony’s actions as a reflection of a much broader pathology among blacks and cite violent crime statistics to prove their point.
Some attribute these outcomes to culture, specifically the breakdown of the nuclear family and fatherlessness. Others believe the dysfunction is a matter of blood and bone, citing lower IQ scores and genetics as the main culprit.
The increasing prevalence of this rhetoric among conservatives is a microcosm of a much bigger phenomenon: the rise of the race-conscious right. Some people use “woke right” to describe this ascendant ideology, but the specific terminology is less important than the reality it describes.
The political left is notorious for making everything about race. Any incident that involves a white person doing something negative to a black person is strained through a racial prism. Police shootings and incarceration statistics are the clearest examples. Disparities in education outcomes and household income are another.
The left’s overarching narrative is that black people in America face unique obstacles because our institutions are infected with anti-black racism. No amount of evidence to the contrary moves them from that position.
Conservatives historically responded to this narrative by promoting “colorblindness,” treating people as individuals, cautioning blacks to resist self-pity, and encouraging them to embrace personal responsibility. In fact, the right regularly chastises liberals for painting police with a broad brush based on the actions of a few “bad apples.” Their message was always clear and consistent: Don’t engage in hasty judgments or sweeping generalizations that tempt you into seeing entire groups as villains or yourself as a victim.
That is no longer the case, and the parallels between the race-obsessed left and right are becoming increasingly clear.
One is assuming racial animus is at play — often without sufficient evidence — when you feel attacked by public institutions. For instance, activists on the left saw George Floyd as the living embodiment of the historical oppression black men have faced in America at the hands of racist police. That idea persists to this day, even though prosecutors stated there was no evidence Derek Chauvin’s actions were racially motivated.
The right’s rhetoric during much of Daniel Penny’s criminal trial made it clear that for some, he was the embodiment of the current persecution of white males in American society. It wasn’t just that Penny was being punished for standing up to a mentally ill homeless man. They believed that Penny was being prosecuted because the black District Attorney Alvin Bragg was bent on weaponizing the justice system against a straight white male in New York City.
Another example of conservative race-consciousness is the tendency to individualize in-group misdeeds while collectivizing the sins of out-groups. This explains why conservative commentators would never think to insert a racial descriptor when discussing teachers who have sex with students, even though it feels like every week brings another incident involving white women engaging in inappropriate conduct with teens.
Likewise, for all their time spent fighting against trans ideology, influencers on the right don’t make a habit of describing its most vocal proponents in racial terms. White abusers and perverts only have to answer for their own behavior, while black people who misbehave in public are seen as representatives of a larger group.
Both sides also make a habit of turning isolated tragedies into existential crises. Progressive pundits stoking the flames of race explain why a black man living in Brooklyn comes to feel “white supremacists” are the real threat to his life even though every shooter in his neighborhood shares his complexion. Likewise, conservatives who live in all-white neighborhoods repost old videos of black criminals halfway across the country with captions claiming their children are under attack.
Even the quick expressions of forgiveness from Austin Metcalf’s father were ridiculed by some conservatives online. This mirrors the frustration black commentators expressed after family members of Dylann Roof’s victims forgave him two days after he shot nine black churchgoers at a church in South Carolina.
One of the worst parts about the rise in right-wing race consciousness is that it was completely predictable. Progressives spent years arguing that white people are the cause of all the country’s problems. Pundits who love to lecture conservatives about embracing Ibram X. Kendi-style “antiracism” regularly said the vilest things on TV about white people. Over the past few decades, the left went from fighting against racism to publicly waging war against “whiteness.”
The fact that most of the people running the institutions — from universities to Fortune 500 companies — are white doesn’t lessen the damage. Only a complete fool would think you can demonize the largest ethnic group in your country without some type of blowback.
Unfortunately, the people pushing identity politics are long on hubris and short on wisdom. Not only do they reduce Americans down to their immutable traits, but they also create the perfect breeding ground for extremist views. Simply put, when you “sow” Robin DiAngelo, you will “reap” David Duke. This is not unique to white people. Rejection of moderation almost always leads to radicalism.
It’s not entirely clear where we go from here as a nation, but I wish both liberals and conservatives alike would turn down the racial rhetoric. This is one reason Austin Metcalf’s father pleaded with people not to make his son’s death about race or politics. Through his grief, he intuitively understands that seeing victims of crime as pieces to be moved around a cultural chessboard is a sign of a sick society that places a higher value on political narratives than on preserving life. This applies equally to the left and right.
Murder is wrong because every person is made in the image of God. It shouldn’t be hard for pundits on either side of the aisle to say.As Blaze News reported last week, a Los Angeles County deputy with a stellar record is staring down hard time in federal prison after a suspect accused him of using excessive force during a 2023 arrest. Evidence now indicates that L.A. County Sheriff Robert Luna may have prompted a federal investigation into the incident, leaving deputies and other personnel feeling betrayed.
Blaze News caught up with the deputy's attorney, Tom Yu, as well as a spokesman for the Los Angeles Sheriff's Professional Association, Nick Wilson, to better understand the prevailing sentiment among L.A. County deputies about this case and to learn why they hope Deputy Trevor Kirk may yet avoid time behind bars.
On June 24, 2023, Deputy Trevor Kirk and another deputy drove to the WinCo supermarket in Lancaster, California, in response to a report of a possible robbery in progress involving a man and a woman. A source affiliated with LASPA told Blaze News that the woman had been "caught in the act."
When loss prevention officers confronted the suspects in the case — Damon Barnes and Jacy Houseton — the suspects allegedly assaulted the officers. According to reports, Houseton even pulled down her face mask and spat on one of security guards.
Kirk and the other deputy encountered Barnes and Houseton in the parking lot outside the store, identifying them as individuals who matched the suspects' description.
Though Barnes ran his mouth a bit, he was otherwise detained without incident. Houseton was a different story.
'She took a swing at him, backed off, and then continued to actively resist arrest.'
While deputies placed Barnes in handcuffs, Houseton stood nearby filming with her cell phone. Having already identified her as the other suspect in the alleged robbery and possible assault, Kirk then reached for her cell phone.
After a brief scuffle, Kirk brought Houseton to the ground, at which point she began accusing him of "manhandling" her. She also repeatedly threatened to sue Kirk and hollered phrases often associated with George Floyd and Eric Garner, who both died during encounters with law enforcement: "Get your neck [sic] off my … off my … I can’t breathe."
Houseton continued to yell and flail about. She also appeared to disobey orders to put her hands behind her back, so Kirk pepper-sprayed her in the face on two separate occasions.
Houseton later received treatment for injuries.
Bodycam video of the incident can be seen below:
— (@)
A summary of the incident from the Department of Justice painted a grim picture of Kirk's actions. "Kirk grabbed J.H. by her arm, hooked his left hand behind her neck, and violently threw her face-first to the ground," it said. It also accused him of pressing his knee into Houseton's neck and failing to issue her the proper commands.
In February, Kirk, a 32-year-old Army veteran and father of two, was convicted by a federal jury of one felony count of deprivation of rights under color of law, an offense that carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. According to court records, it took jurors just two hours to render their verdict.
In reporting on Kirk's conviction, KCAL described the incident as a "vicious assault" involving a "disgraced deputy."
Attorney Tom Yu and LASPA representative Nick Wilson are frustrated with the way the incident has been framed by federal investigators and critics.
For one thing, by all accounts, Kirk has an "outstanding" record, Yu said. Kirk is well liked in the department and has no other allegations of misconduct against him or any poor performance reviews.
With regard to the incident with Houseton, Wilson told Blaze News that Kirk used only "minimal force" that qualified as a low-level, "category 1" use of force, as listed in the policies of the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department.
Wilson also claimed that Houseton had been "resistive" and "violent" during the encounter with Kirk. "She took a swing at Trevor Kirk when he first went to detain her and put hands on," he said. "She took a swing at him, backed off, and then continued to actively resist arrest."
"Deputies are trained to take suspects who resist to the ground in order to gain compliance and to safely handcuff the suspect," Yu said in a statement in the days following the incident.
What's more, both Barnes and Houseton have a criminal history. Barnes has a string of arrests dating back to 1987, including convictions for arson, weapons and drug offenses, and resisting an officer. He was also accused of robbery in 1995. Houseton was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon in 2005 but had that conviction effectively dismissed from her record three years later, presumably after satisfying the terms of her probation.
To be fair, Yu noted, Kirk did not know about those prior convictions when he met the pair in the parking lot that day. However, Kirk also did not know whether they were armed, though it turns out they were not.
Neither Barnes nor Houseton was ever charged in connection with the alleged robbery of the WinCo store, which KCAL-TV later downplayed as merely a possible "shoplifting," or the alleged assault on the loss prevention officers.
Houseton did follow through on her promise to sue the department and was reportedly awarded $1 million. At a press conference about the lawsuit, Houseton claimed Kirk "tried to kill" her and implied that the excessive force was racially motivated.
Her attorney, Caree Harper, added, "It doesn't happen to white folks like this, and we're not gonna have it happening to black folks like this."
WinCo did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.
An internal affairs investigation was initiated almost immediately following the detainment at WinCo, and the fallout might have been kept in house but for one problem: Video of the encounter between Kirk and Houseton had already been made public. Activist groups — including Cancel the Contract Antelope Valley, a far-left "social justice" organization — quickly planned demonstrations denouncing what they viewed as another racially charged instance of police brutality.
"As black residents of this community, we are tired of living in fear of the police," said group co-founder Waunette Cullors.
'The sheriff buckled under political pressure.'
About a week after the incident, Sheriff Robert Luna addressed the controversy publicly, describing the video footage as "disturbing." "It's disturbing. There's no ifs, ands, buts about it," he said at a press conference.
Wilson believes that in the summer of 2023 — a time when BLM riots and "defund the police" movements continued to reverberate three years after George Floyd's death — Luna was sensitive to external pressure. "After this use of force, the civil rights community, the activist movements raised hell within the sheriff's department," Wilson told Blaze News.
Even though Kirk was reportedly "cleared at a station level," Luna decided to invite federal agencies to investigate Kirk's actions as well, Wilson claimed.
"The sheriff buckled under political pressure and made sure that this case was handed over to the DOJ for prosecution," Wilson continued, thereby "hanging deputies out to dry."
Both Wilson and Yu told Blaze News they were "certain" that Luna's office initiated federal involvement, though Luna denies it.
In a statement to Blaze News, Deputy Miesha McClendon of the Sheriff's Information Bureau claimed, "Despite allegations to the contrary, this case was not referred to the FBI nor the U.S Attorney’s Office by anyone within the Department as indicated in the official court transcript."
McClendon also added:
The Department recognizes that having one of our employees convicted by a federal jury is a significant matter, and we understand the frustration it has caused among our personnel. ... The Department will be conducting a thorough review of the case to identify any specific issues to determine if modifications to training are needed.
L.A. deputies were so outraged at the treatment of one of their own — a colleague some believe was "politically" persecuted after simply following department protocol — that upon Kirk's conviction in February, Luna held a private meeting with personnel from the Lancaster sheriff's station.
During that two-hour meeting, which was secretly recorded, Luna expressed regret for characterizing the footage as "disturbing."
He also suggested that he had nothing to do with contacting the feds about the incident. "I can tell you this with confidence that what I said that day," Luna appeared to say, referring to his "disturbing" remark, "did not have anything to do with the FBI.
"The FBI received this case from the plaintiff's attorney," Luna explained. The "plaintiff" in this case was presumably Houseton, who filed a lawsuit.
During the clips of the conversation reviewed by Blaze News, the voice identified as Luna's admits to having "failed" his team members. He also indicates that he had not personally reviewed the incident footage, which others in the room characterize as "innocuous" and not too "grievous."
Deputies also repeatedly ask Luna to use the power of his office to stand with Kirk and publicly oppose his conviction. Luna promised he would consider it.
Luna's history with law enforcement in general is rather mixed, even though he has spent his entire career as a cop, first with the Long Beach Police Department and now as the head of the largest sheriff's department in America.
Though Luna wanted to be a police officer from the time he was little, he indicated to the L.A. Times that he grew up in a community that was generally distrustful of law enforcement.
Luna also recalled to the Times an incident in which he was apparently the victim of unnecessary police aggression. "At age 13, he said, he was slammed face-first against the hood of a sheriff’s deputy’s car for crossing against a red light on his bicycle," the outlet summarized for a profile piece in October 2022, shortly before Luna was elected sheriff.
Luna also campaigned for sheriff on the promise of breaking up so-called "deputy gangs." While he has since managed to ban such gangs, he has yet to name a single deputy gang member, Wilson told Blaze News.
Additionally, Luna has a track record of handling possible instances of excessive force within his department.
During one of the occasionally violent demonstrations in the wake of George Floyd's death, an officer with the Long Beach Police Department shot a journalist with a "foam projectile," the LAist reported in 2020. LBPD — then helmed by Police Chief Luna — ultimately determined that the shooting "was within policy," the outlet said.
The deputies of L.A. County have not taken the conviction of Kirk or Luna's alleged capitulation to leftist pressure lying down.
For example, a handful, including a sergeant, have reportedly refused to accept medals and other accolades awarded by the department. They even "refused to actually go to the awards ceremony," Wilson insisted.
'The magnitude of this boycott ... makes Luna look terrible in the law enforcement community nationwide.'
In a more widespread show of solidarity with Kirk, hundreds of L.A. deputies and other staff members have decided to boycott one of their favorite annual events: the Baker to Vegas relay. While the L.A. Sheriff's Department regularly fields two dozen or so relay teams, this year, at least 20 sheriff's stations — including Santa Clarita, West Hollywood, two detention centers, the Training Bureau, and, of course, Kirk's home station in Lancaster — are refusing to participate.
Protesting the Baker to Vegas relay is no minor demonstration. Billed as "the world’s most prestigious and unique law enforcement foot race," the event draws teams from across the country and across the globe.
"There's folks flying in from Brazil. There's folks from Australia, from Germany," Yu told Blaze News. "This is a big thing."
Yu would know. Now an attorney, Yu spent 15 years as a deputy with the LASD. The deputies who race are very "competitive," he said, often averaging five and a half minutes per mile.
"I tried out for a county-wide team," Yu recalled. "I ran a six-minute mile, and I did not make the team."
"It's to show unity," Yu explained. "It's to run for your fallen brothers and sisters, for mental health. There's a lot of suicides in law enforcement, so it's a huge race."
Wilson confirmed to Blaze News that Sheriff Luna has participated in the event and understands its importance to department staff.
"The magnitude of this boycott ... makes Luna look terrible in the law enforcement community nationwide," Wilson said.
"To have the deputies not show up, it makes Luna look terrible."
This year, the Baker to Vegas race is scheduled for April 5 and 6. Instead, many L.A. deputies are opting to participate in a 5K race to raise money for Kirk and his family.
While Yu and Wilson are expecting a good turnout for the alternative race, they claimed that Luna may be trying to spoil or otherwise interfere with the event by attempting to ascertain the individuals orchestrating it.
Wilson shared with Blaze News a screenshot of one such message, allegedly from a Luna ally:
Yu and Wilson believe the purpose behind these probing questions is to intimidate would-be participants and convince them not to join the Kirk race.
"We've had multiple deputies tell us and send us screenshots of friend requests and questions from Luna's staff asking who's boycotting, who is drumming this up, and applying pressure to deputies ... as a form of retaliation," Wilson said.
In the statement given to Blaze News, Officer McClendon of the information bureau addressed the accusations of intimidation:
The Department issued an internal global email on March 5, 2025, to personnel after it had received several reports from personnel who have stated they have been targeted with actions of harassment, threats of retaliation, and bullying related to participating in the Baker to Vegas race. We want to emphasize that whether or not personnel choose to participate, any form of harassment, retaliation, or misconduct will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
Despite what Wilson calls the "cloud" hanging over the department, he, Yu, and others hold out hope that Kirk can still avoid prison time.
The clearest way for him to do so would be for the judge, a long-serving Reagan appointee, to vacate the verdict. While such an outcome may sound like a long shot, there are encouraging signs. For example, following the guilty verdict, the judge did not remand Kirk to custody, a decision which Yu described as "very rare."
'They were laughing, smiling, high-fiving each other, giving each other hugs.'
Moreover, the federal investigation into Kirk and his federal prosecution began under the Biden administration. During the trial, Wilson and Yu claimed that in a show of force, federal agencies packed the courtroom with young agency newcomers who enthusiastically supported the prosecution.
After the guilty verdict was announced, these agency supporters cheered loudly, Wilson claimed. "They were laughing, smiling, high-fiving each other, giving each other hugs," he said. "It was shocking."
With President Trump now in office, the DOJ has new leadership who may view the prosecution of Kirk in a different light. One individual with some influence in the Trump administration with strong ties to California is Harmeet Dhillon, now the assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ. Wilson, Yu, and others are hoping she will intervene on Kirk's behalf.
Dhillon's office and the DOJ did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.
While Dhillon is aware of Kirk's case, she likely does not know "the extent of the miscarriage of justice," Yu said. Wilson believes that if the right people in the administration get wind of Kirk's situation, they will act.
"If they understood the extent of this, this would be a no-brainer," he said.
"It's just getting the information to them."

“Love Is Blind” is a reality television show where hopeful singles date other hopeful singles without ever seeing each other. But there’s a twist — when they finally do see each other, the expectation is that they get married within weeks.
This season took a bit of an unexpected turn when two of the couples broke up at the altar over their political views.
“I really didn’t get into politics, or like, I didn’t get interested until Trump took office and George Floyd,” Sara, one of the contestants, told her love interest, Ben, while they were still dating from behind a wall.
Ben, who is very religious, told Sara that he was “kind of ignorant towards that stuff,” but Sara later found out that his church has more “traditional” values and that Ben himself had different opinions on Black Lives Matter and the COVID vaccine.
“I don’t blame her for bringing that up. If that is something that’s important to her, I think it is really important that she brought it up, and I think that he’s a coward,” Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” comments. “‘I just don’t really care,’ to me, that’s conservative coded, that he probably does lean to the right.”
“That’s something that conservatives do or people, at least, who lean right, do when they don’t want to offend the other person,” Stuckey says. “I know that as a guy, you’re thinking ‘I can fix her.’ And that is possible; I absolutely think that the best thing to happen to a liberal girl is to marry a conservative guy and move to the right. That’s good for her, but I would never wish that upon a conservative guy.”
Ben wasn’t the only “Love Is Blind” hopeful who found himself dumped at the altar for his political views.
Devon asked his fiancee, whom he met in the show’s “pods,” whether or not she votes with her faith.
“I do think that I make decisions from my faith. You know what I mean, so that just might be a different view than how Republicans that are conservative feel about it,” his fiancee, Virginia, said. “I think people should have abortion rights, you know, that type of stuff.”
When the pair met at the altar, Virginia cited his views as her reason for dumping him.
“These girls are just so ignorant,” Stuckey comments. “They are just imbibing the left-wing toxic empathy propaganda that is targeted toward women that tells them in order to be a good, compassionate person, you have to be for progressive causes. And she believes that as a Christian, she can support so-called abortion rights, which is just the legal ability to be able to poison, dismember a baby inside the womb.”
“Those two positions are completely irreconcilable,” she adds.
