GREGG JARRETT (GUEST): The racist overtones are conspicuous for all to see and hear on those videotapes. And then, you know, Don Lemon later appeared on a podcast, and he doubled down on it. He called the members of the church entitled white supremacists as if that somehow justifies an attack on them. You know, it's not just a despicable remark, but it tells me that they were taunted because of their race, which qualifies as a hate crime. I would have charged him with that.
