Back in 2007, failed Dancing With the Stars hoofer and talking head Tucker Carlson boasted of his handling of a misdirected pickup:
“Having sex in a public men’s room is outrageous. It’s also really common. I’ve been bothered in men’s rooms.” Carlson continued, “I’ve been bothered in Georgetown Park,” in Washington, D.C., “when I was in high school.” When Abrams asked how Carlson responded to being “bothered,” Carlson asserted, “I went back with someone I knew and grabbed the guy by the — you know, and grabbed him, and … hit him against the stall with his head, actually.”
So he would be the perfect guest to bring on to discuss harassment and violence based on sexual orientation (as in a effort in Alameda, CA to pass an anti-bullying law). He turned up on Fox News’ Fox & Friends today (Media Matters):
Tucker is concerned that being taught tolerance is “controversial” and an effort to “force’ tolerance curriculum on children — and it’s expensive, too, he notes.

Tucker Carlson: Coming To An Airport Restroom Near You Soon!
Sorry, can’t watch. Still waiting for him to eat Hillary’s REAL shoe.
I have no tolerance for Tucker CarlsonIf I see him on the street I shall whoop his ass.
Wow it is so easy to be intolerant, I can see why it is so appealing to the ignorant.
Nothing says “intolerant” like teaching toleranceEvery red-blooded Christian American should be allowed to bash queers, lynch darkies and send Jews to concentration camps, and anyone who says otherwise is engaging in religious bigotry. (Insert eye-roll here.)
What’s up with the right-wingers on “Dancing With The Stars?”If ever there were a TV show that should be completely apolitical, it should be a show about ballroom dancing with B- or C-list celebrities. But first Tucker Carlson got onto DWTS, and now Tom DeLay (of all people!) this season.
Is DWTS run by the same ABC/Disney executive who got Rush Limbaugh hired for football coverage, or something?
Appears on FAUX NEWS What is it that attracts people to this so-called news channel? There must be a common thread.

Got it I think.
It just hasn’t been the same…since Tucker quit wearing his bow ties.
The only time I liked him was when he said that listening to GW Bush speak was like watching a drunken man lurch across an icy road. He got that right!
Seems even Tucker’s Daddy is tired of buying him shows (PBS)Carlson was the side kick of the Douche Bag of Liberty = Bob Novack. His laughable stint on Dancing With The Stars..made sure America learned two things about him, he isn’t a star, and he can’t dance.
Such a Pillow-BiterIsn’t it obvious?
Yes you canpull your children from public school curriculum’s you do not agree with. The alternative is called private religious
indoctrinationeducation. There your child can be taught thehatecore values you so cherish.When he quit wearing bow ties…I started to develop such a crush on him! It would be hard to put his views aside, but I guess if James Carville can put up with Mary Matalin’s views, I could have put up with Tucker’s. It seems now that he has become even more conservative… But then again, with him biting the pillow he wouldn’t be able to spout off!
Homophobe, big-timeYears ago, I would see young Tucker walking around Eastern Market on the weekends with his wife or girlfriend. Being a very gay, gay-friendly area of Capitol Hill in DC the men were out in full force, very visible. He was new with CNN, and we knew who he was.
Any way, he was visibly, very uncomfortable around gays. When two men were walking his way, he’d pull his woman in closer, or move to the other side of her to avoid. His twitchy behavior caught on to many, after that it became sport just to watch.
Knowing how phobic he was around gays, and to be honest, he was setting a lot peoples’ gaydar off, this is not surprising.
I would like it if more women would smash in the heads of heterosexual guys who grab ass. The next time some schmuck tries that, so help me… >:(
and I do meanboth heads.
don’t forget “male chauvinist pig”,,,Check.
AHA!Just as I’ve always suspected.
These creeps are SO transparent.
Yep, mistaken for GayThe younger tucker was thinner, but not really tone, more of a soft appearance. His hair was the same, but he had that cuddly, cutesy look, usually in casual prep attire. Many took him for gay, I’m not surprised he was hit on.
What a snake!There are no cases at the federal level for these age groups because no cases in these age groups ever get to the federal level. But if Carlson wants proof that such work is important I suggest asking Eleven-year-old 6th grader Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover, who hung himself after enduring daily taunts at school about being gay. Or maybe check in with Jaheem Herrera, an 11-year-old Atlanta-area boy who hanged himself at home after relentless anti-gay bullying at his elementary school. This kid actually went to a school awarded for its anti-bullying programs! How about Larry King, who was shot in the head at age 15 because he expressed some affection for one of the boys who continuously bullied him for being gay. These suicides and King’s murder make it all too clear that issues of sexuality and bullying at such a young age, has heartbreaking consequences that the government continues to be too callous to keep records on. This level bullying and sexual harassment is however changing the landscape of our schools from educational facilities to graveyards.
maybemaybe Tucker has never heard of the phrase “No, thank you.”
Been there. Done that. Been accused of the double standard.The painful reality is that women are expected to resist, but not really hurt a guy, because then it becomes assault. Women are supposed to take being propositioned as a compliment, a testament to our desirability. And then we’re supposed to be weak little victims in need of help and not defend ourselves. I had cops read me the riot act and threaten assault charges for punching out a guy who had cornered me after being told no four times already. Apparently I was just supposed to scream and hope someone helped me. The only reason they didn’t is because he already had a rap sheet for domestic violence, an active TRO against him, and he was 1/3 again my size.
Tucker Carlson was so afraid of being thought of as gay that instead of merely declining and walking away he got a friend, went back, and sought out his would-be suitor for the specific act of doing deliberate violence to him in revenge for offending Tucker’s notion of his own manhood. Tucker Carlson was not likely to have been raped by his propositioner out of spite and a sense of entitlement to his body. Therein lies the difference between Tucker Carlson being propositioned by a gay man and a woman being harassed by a straight man. For some reason, despite Tucker Carlson’s body and life not being in any real danger, he’s allowed to respond with violence because it was Teh Ghey Panic and The Fag Needed To Be Taught A Lesson. Whereas I was an uppity bitch who should have taken the harassment as a compliment and quit complaining about it.
StatisticsTucker loves his stats, doesn’t he?
I think, with a little research, I could conclusively prove that 99% of anti-gay bullying* that takes place in high schools across the country were perpetrated by kids who, at one point in their lives, were in the first, second, or third grades.
(*I allow that some of these bullies might have been home-schooled at one point; in fact, that wouldn’t surprise me a bit.)
Can we call the cops on himfor publicly admitted crime?
Worth noting…It is worth noting that Carlson supports same-sex marriage.
wow. really? I’m surprised. truly.
STFU TuckerHe roams around telling these tails of being the target of gay male sexual advances like he thinks he looks like Channing Tatum!
Get over yourself, Tucky baby.
As a gay man I can tell you with authority you ain’t all that.
Tucker next time your eyes wander to my urinalNo need for ramming your face into a stall wall, we can settle this like civilized men…a dance off
Buh hahahahaha
and it’s expensive, too, he notes.I have one reply:
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
