CNN analyst Juliette Kayyem hastily backtracked her Thursday call for Canadian truckers participating in the protests against the Liberal government's coronavirus policies to have their tires slashed."Earlier today, I tweeted something that has been used by others to suggest I was promoting vigilantism. I was not. People have the freedom to protest. Governments have the responsibility to protect public safety. That was what I intended to say," Kayyem tweeted late Thursday evening. (Tweet) Earlier in the day, Kayyem railed against the truckers, declaring their protest an "economic and security issue," and calling for them to be stopped.

I think that the proper treatment of her tires is what she recommends for others.
"Do unto others as they want to do unto you." or something kinda-sorta like that....

Following the summer of BLM and Antifa riots that resulted in death, injury, looting and burning, creating billions of dollars in damages - riots that the media fully backed and encouraged - the liberals/media have zero credibility or moral authority to pile on to peaceful groups asserting their rights. The hypocrisy is breathtaking and no one is buying it.

I think your original statement was clearly understood, Ms Kayyem. Stated in specific terms.

What she actually meant:’I am boiling over with rage against those whom I’m told are The Enemy and some of it spilled out. I’ll keep it secret from now on.’

CNN being the workplace for philandering, let's ask who's fooling around with "analyst" Kayyem.

There must have been a huge backlash over what she said which not only promoted violence but was jack*ss stupid. She said to slash their tires and empty their gas tanks and then tow the truck out of there.

And what will she do when the fuel is removed and the tyres are flat, Einstein? That's assuming you could carry that off under the watchful eyes of the drivers.

It's what she truly meant, and what she hears in her eco-chamber of myopic group-think.

Maybe the trucker-protestors could take weapons and occupy a couple of city blocks and declare it an ''autonomous zone''... oh, wait... that sounds familiar.

Because slashing tires enhances public safety. Or something.
She thought she'd get huge kudos. She meant exactly what she said and a whole lot more she knew not to say.

Juliette Kayyem doesn't understand that her life depends more upon truckers than the government.

Don't worry, it's just the mostly peacefully act of slashing their tires!

Reminds me of the guy who had his mother-in-law over for dinner. He meant to say "Would you please pass the butter?" Instead, he said, "You silly cow! You've ruined my life!"

Typical of a lefty to promote violence!
Those truckers are shoveling snow off streets so cars can get thru. The plows are not plowing the streets. How violent is that. Attacking the snow!

Would she prefer that they take their trucks and go home?
Who would deliver things?
Maybe they should just refuse to deliver to Ottowa.

Somebody informed the idiot it's much harder to move a disabled truck. What she suggested would actually make it harder to end the strike. Law enforcement does not want to deal with trucks with slashed tires. What a moron.

So where will Little Miss Juliette put the gas she wants drained away? Those trucks hold 120 gallons of diesel fuel. And the ruined tires? Baby seals may choke on all that slashed rubber.

Let's be fair. She was misquoted.
She didn't say "slash their tires" - - she said "pour sugar into their gas tanks."
This has always been an honest forum. Let's keep it that way.

BS Juliette, you meant what you said. Calling for damage to private property is not a slip of the tongue. Shame on you Juliette. May your grocery shelves be empty as you wished, after all who do you think brings the good to your store.

Can CNN get any worse? The truckers need to go home and refuse to deliver anything to Ottawa nor any Left wing Representatives districts. Let these Fascists starve and do without their favorite goodies. The truckers have put up with enough garbage during this so called plague. As an example, those idiots in Pennsylvania would not let them stop in their state to use the bathrooms. Now, they want to force them to inject a dangerous experimental vaccine into themselves, while they ride for hours, ALONE, in their trucks. Enough is enough.

As someone who lectures at Harvard, you knew exactly what you were saying. To blame it on not being clear or using the wrong words is a bunch of liberal speak BS. You said exactly what you meant and wished would happen. When called out on your calls for violence you feigned surprise at your poor choice of words like you were a first grader using swear words not knowing what they were.

If Canadian truckers are de-trucked who will transport the food? If Justin Trudeau wants to escape there is always the Rolling Stones tour bus as his Mother did when she got woke.

Dearie, you were perfectly clear in your call for violence.
Now go take a Long Walk off a Short Pier.
