CNN’s Tom Fuentes: ‘Anybody that Espouses ISIS’ Philosophy’ Is ‘Mentally Ill’

‘You have a combination of a terrorist act, a hate crime, and a mentally disturbed individual’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

FUENTES: "We also have the reports of this kid, Mateen, having trouble since about third grade threatening classmates and disturbing his elementary school and being disciplined 31 times, and then previous co-workers and others saying he’s been a troublemaker, you know, and had anger management problems with being brutal with his first wife and his current wife. So you have mental health issues with this guy, and then, of course, you would have his hatred of gay groups or whether he was or wasn’t, wanting to carry out that. So you have a combination of a terrorist act, a hate crime, and a mentally disturbed individual, and as far as I’m concerned about anybody that espouses ISIS’ philosophy of beheading, torture, murder, they’re already somewhat mentally ill in the first place to do it."
