Protesters chant outside Tucker Carlson's home
A group of Antifa protestors gathered outside of Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson's home to protest his television show.
 

A group of angry Antifa protestors gathered outside of Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson's home on Wednesday evening.

The anti-fascists group, possibly associated with Smash Racism D.C., chanted "Tucker Carlson, we will fight. We know where you sleep at night" outside of Carlson's Washington home, according to Fox News. In a video posted online, the group can also be heard saying, "Racist scumbag, leave town!"

Carlson's wife, Susie, was home alone at the time. He told Fox she locked herself into a pantry and called police. 

The host of "Tucker Carlson Tonight" said the group broke his oak door and one person mentioned a pipe bomb, as heard on a security video. 

“Here’s the problem, I have four children,” he told Fox. “I never thought twice about leaving them home alone, but this is the reaction because this group doesn’t like my TV show.”

Smash Racism D.C., posted Carlson's family address on Twitter in a now-deleted post, The Daily Caller reports. Carlson told Fox the home addresses of his brother and his former college roommate, Neil Patel, who co-founded "The Daily Caller" with him, were also made public.

The group's Twitter account was suspended as of Thursday morning. 

Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott and the network's president, Jay Wallace, issued a joint statement calling the incident "reprehensible" and "unacceptable."

"We as a nation have become far too intolerant of different points of view," the statement said. "Recent events across our country clearly highlight the need for a more civil, respectful, and inclusive national conversation. Those of us in the media and in politics bear a special obligation to all Americans to find common ground.”

Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly reacted to the news on Twitter, saying, "This has to stop."

Fox News commentator Brit Hume called the incident "revolting, and frightening."

the new president has validated this new climate of bad behaviour

he contributes heavily to it even if he did not start it

these sorts of activities and other formerly disapproved of social outbursts

are starting to feel somewhat "presidential"

 

nothing is off side anymore

smear a journalist, ban him from white house

based on doctored video

 

this will all just lead to more and more extreme behaviour

Anti-anything just promotes that which they are against. 

 

Using fear, intimidation and hatred to get rid of those who elicit fear, intimidation and hatred makes zero sense.

 

Antifa is just as bad a fascists the only difference betweeen the two groups is to whom that fear, intimidation and hatred is directed towards.

 

When you move to the extremes of ideology you become a fundamentalist and fundamentalism looks the same regardless of ideology.

have we seen that since the 70s? 

Honestly depends on the area you live in.  Some places, the cops will beat you down after tossing tear gas on you.  Other places like Portland are too afraid of the political blowback.  There they let protesters take over the streets.

I've had a lot of fun in Portland. Not that kind of fun, the beer drinking voodoo donut kind.

Politically, your "West Coast" is not unlike our "West Coast" IMHO.  Much like parts of Alberta & Texas being kindred spirits.
