EXCERPT:
BEHAR: "Well, [Don Lemon] texted me because I mentioned this case yesterday vis-à-vis the George Floyd case. He said, you know, that he — the cop had no choice or something to that effect. My feeling is, I don’t know if that’s true or not. I really can’t figure it out anymore. I mean, it seems to me in a situation — this is what it looked to me. I've looked at the tape and I still can’t figure it out. Shoot the gun in the air as a warning, tase a person, shoot them in the leg, shoot them in the behind. Stop them somehow. But if the only solution is to kill a teenager, there’s something wrong with this. There’s something very, very wrong with the way these things are being conducted. Even if the cop had to do it, there’s something wrong with it. I can’t explain it any better than that. He and I were going back and forth last night because he has a completely different view of this. But all I can say is, we keep talking about this over and over and kids still keep getting shot. It’s like the gun issue in this country. People keep getting shot and nothing ever gets done about it. It’s a very frustrating conversation to have. I can’t add much to it."
