Fox News political analyst Juan Williams is being lambasted on Twitter for his controversial comments about the tragic murder of Uber Eats driver Mohammad Anwar by two teenage girls. Williams, who co-hosts the Fox News show 'The Five', said, "I don’t think they intended to kill anybody. They were looking to have a joy ride. It just went way wrong, way out of control, and ended up in a gross tragedy."

His usage of the term 'joy ride' led to a storm of controversy on social media as users slammed him for 'sticking up for those murderers'.

Co-host Jesse Watters interrupted Williams stating that the assailants brought a stun gun which is not usually brought for a 'joy ride' .

Juan is an intellectually challenged individual. He really struggles to make sense or a coherent argument.

What’s particularly irritating about Juan is that he pushes the lies while seeming to know better. Several Leftist media types actually don’t give the impression that they know better. I don’t know if Juan actually knows it’s all garbage, but that comes across.

Juan Williams is an intelligent guy who trips all over himself when he spouts the delusional nonsense he, by nature of his race and position, is expected to say. Suspect he doesn’t believe it himself. Sad that at this stage of his life he has to be a phony to earn a living.

"I don’t think they intended to kill anybody. They were looking to have a joy ride. It just went way wrong, way out of control, and ended up in a gross tragedy."

I disagree with Juan Williams on pretty much everything, but I don't think that's something he should be fired over.

Oops Juan, I didn’t mean to run you down with my truck when you were crossing 5th Avemnue in Manhattan, all I wanted to do was get an autograph from you.

I got out of the truck and there you were under my rear tire, squirming and yelling for help.

I called 911. Sorry if they are a little slow in Manhatten these days, thanks to your good friend Mayor DeBlasio.

Juan Williams is one of the lowest mentality people I have ever talked to in my life.

‘He really struggles to make sense or a coherent argument.’

actually, he cannot make coherent arguments; Gutfeld, whom I have trouble taking seriously, routinely slices and dices poor Juan and he is left gaping and sputtering...

I always end up feeling somewhat sorry for the abject boob...

I don’t believe he was fired from Fox. Fake news.

“I don’t think they intended to kill anybody. They were looking to have a joy ride.”

A carjacking is not a “joyride”. It’s a kidnappping / abduction at gunpoint.

The only reason Juan is there is that he can spout the Liberal lines and he is a Minority. he gets paid pretty big bucks to recite Democrat talking points and I am sure he is glad to do it. Does he believe what he spouts on TV? My guess is maybe 50% of it.

Juan is on Fox as a foil to demonstrate the idiocy of the left. Once in a while he blurts out his true feelings which got him fired from NPR. I truly believe he parrots the left to be a straight man for Gutfeld’s hilarious retorts. Maybe it’s just that I find him likable and can’t imagine he believes the liberal crap he spews out on occasion.

Funny you should say that, because you may not realize that you hit on something that goes right to the core of the problem with so many media figures.

Juan Williams isn’t a “phony” at all. He’s just a TV character, not a real person. They ALL are.

Sure, they use their real names and they talk about serious topics. But Juan Williams should be taken no more seriously than you’d take Kermit the Frog or Bart Simpson or that wacky doctor from “House.”
