No one finds it a bit over the top that the judge can't simply throw out a question for discussion/debate? To start a conversation?

I find it an especially pertinent question on the heels of that persons anti Semitic remarks. She also just referred to the President as not human. Since when are we not supposed to question our policy makers? How else do we hold them accountable?

The entire situation is disturbing. We're going to silence and censure anyone who questions anything now? This is a VERY slippery and frightening slope.
She threw out a bigoted sentiment - that Muslims can’t both live by their faith and be Constitution-loving Americans - but phrased it as a question for plausible deniability. And who was she discussing or debating with? It was a monologue.

Omar’s remark was rightfully understood to be anti-Semitic. Pirro’s was no less Islamophobic. Omar should be questioned on her statements and policy positions, but there’s no need to question whether she believes in the Constitution because she chooses to wear a hijab.

Fox expressed disagreement with her remarks early last week, then chose not to air her after 50 Muslims were slaughtered while praying by an anti-Muslim white supremacist. She’s their employee, they’re free to censure her, but no one has silenced her - she’s free to make whatever gross remarks she wants, she’s just not entitled to do it on a Saturday night program.
She's a commentator. Commentators begin discussions. They throw ideas out for Us to ponder. Without that, we might as well just have government run media as our neighbors in China have. We need free thought. We need to question. It's our right. When that stops, we no longer have a free society.

She can commentate and throw out thought provoking questions to her heart’s content without couching bigotry in the form of a question. Fox is a business and she’s losing advertisers. Them having (minimal) standards for their on-air hosts is nowhere close to having government run media or losing the right to question.

It's a very short skip to it. Who's going to risk their job anymore to try to provoke thought? No one.

Everyone will toe the party line, the progressive line, to save their own skin. All there needs to be is one example. We are accumulating more every day.

Everyone can RIP Christianity up one side and down the other. There are mad slayings is Christians all over the world every day. Where's the outrage? Where's the coverage? No where because it doesn't fit the progressive agenda.

By virtue of the fact that the judge has been shut down after her question, I would say yes.
