MEGYN KELLY (HOST): Man, I'm 100% on ICE's side. I don't see the nuance on this one. I feel like you don't want to get shot in the face by ICE, don't try to run one down. Don't try to antagonize them. Don't inject yourself in the middle of a law enforcement operation, you fool. Everybody knows not to do that. Everybody knows not to do that. And everybody knows that these cops are being antagonized and might be a little on edge.
Like in the law, we call it assumption of the risk. That's what I see Renee Good doing that day. It's not that I have no empathy for her family, but I have empathy for them because they had a dumbass mother who made very fucking dumb decisions that got her killed. Like, that's how to me, it's so clear. I'm one of those 67% more Republican-leaning people who are in favor of this.
But as we pointed out on an AM Update today and yesterday on the show, 53% of the populace is saying they're on the side of Renee Goode. Like, they think the ICE officer made a mistake and that he should be prosecuted, the majority, and that's all Democrats and Independents. So you're not wrong that people are definitely seeing it vehemently differently.
