'The View' Spew: Whoopi Blasts Penny for Celebrating 'Not Guilty' Verdict, Sunny Hostin Hates America

In this episode of “Try to Control Your Shock and Amazement”…

Despite my efforts to avoid it, I can’t resist discussing the recent happenings on the controversial TV show “The View,” particularly their reaction to the verdict of NYC subway hero, Daniel Penny. As expected, the hosts were very animated about Penny being found not guilty.

To begin with, Whoopi Goldberg expressed her disapproval of Penny celebrating with his lawyers after the verdict. Then, Sunny Hostin, known for her outspoken opinions, criticized those who lack empathy for Jordan Neely, a disturbed individual who menaced both white and black passengers on a subway train until Penny intervened, leading to Neely’s subsequent death.

Oh, and bombastic Joy Behar also tossed in her blow-hard two cents.



Whoopi whined (emphasis, mine):

Penny’s argument was that he was trying to defuse the situation when Neely posed a threat to other commuters, and he chose to rejoice with his legal team despite Neely’s family grieving the loss.

I don’t know that seeing them celebrating in a bar made me comfortable, you know? I mean, you killed a guy. The man is dead, and maybe you just — you take the celebration home

You don’t do it outside but that’s just me. Don’t listen to anything I say.

Whoopi was right in one respect: 

I listen to zero she says, meaning her hopelessly biased, often ignorant, opinions mean zero to me. 

Did I mention that Goldberg also declared that the not-guilty verdict was a “failure on the part of the courts”?

So here’s the thing: Jordan Neely is dead because of the actions of Jordan Neely. Had Daniel Penny not been on that subway car to take action against the obviously disturbed Neely, God knows what would have happened.

Here’s the other thing: Regardless of where Daniel Penny “took his celebration,” untold numbers of Americans are celebrating the final verdict in a trial that should never have occurred. Sorry, Whoopi, Daniel Penny was a hero on that day.

                              

Later in the absurd segment, Hostin asked a question that she must have thought would come off as intellectual. (It didn’t.)

How do we describe and subscribe danger and who is dangerous?

Memo to Sunny: Oh, I dunno; I bet the terrified passengers on that subway car could have answered your question very easily — and correctly.

Hostin then called Neely — who had a lengthy arrest record, a documented history of severe mental illness, a drug abuse problem, and an active arrest warrant when he boarded the F train car on May 1, 2023, and started screaming death threats — a “victim,” before lying about what happened on the subway car.

There is no evidence that he attacked anyone. There is no evidence that he put his hands on anyone.

Wait, huh?

Here’s more:

The F train pulled into a station and the “tall and muscular” Neely stepped on board, shouting erratically, high on drugs. Neely had schizophrenia and a severe case of paranoia and psychosis, he said. … Neely stormed onto the train, threw his jacket on the floor and declared that he didn’t care if he died or wound up in prison, allegedly threatening to “kill a m***********.”

Multiple female passengers, both black and white, testified in the trial about their fear and/or panic. Yet, in Sunny Hostin’s twisted racist mind, Neely was a victim.

Next up, Hostin blasted America and its lack of “compassion.”

And so, when you look at that and look at the result of what happened, my question is where is our compassion?! As a society, where is our compassion?! Where is our compassion as a society?!

Make of that insanity what you will; I’m not going to waste time analyzing it.

Anyway, I wonder what Sunny Hostin and Whoopi Goldberg would have thought if they had been on that subway car when Neely stormed in. I wonder what they would have thought — whether they would have later admitted it or not — when Daniel Penny subdued a hardened criminal, obviously strung out on drugs. I wonder what they would have thought if Daniel Penny had saved their lives.
