Fox Host: The Irish ‘Got Over’ Being Denigrated, Don’t Shout ‘Irish Lives Matter’

As Fox’s The Five opened today’s show talking about St. Patrick’s Day, one of the hosts got in a passing remark dissing the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

Juan Williams was talking about the history of the Irish in the United States and how they were “stereotyped and denigrated for a long time.”

Kimberly Guilfoyle jumped in to say, “And the Irish got over it. They don’t run around going ‘Irish Lives Matter.'”

So, um, Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
