'This is embarrassing’: 'The View' host Sara Haines slammed for blaming gun violence on porn!

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Gun violence and gun ownership are some of the most controversial topics in America. Following the recent unfortunate event of a mall shooting, ‘The View’ co-hosts decided to have a heated discussion on this topic. A lot was said and done, leaving an array of angry viewers who aren’t thrilled with statements made on ‘The View’s segment on Texas Governor Greg Abbott and the mental health crisis.

The one co-host that truly stood out to the viewers this time around was Sara Haines, who has otherwise always flown under the radar, with people like Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin taking the controversial spotlight. However, that wasn’t the case when it came to gun violence, mental health, and everything in between.

‘Young boys, video games, porn’

Some solid points were made by the co-hosts on gun violence, especially by Ana Navarro who cited an emotional example and put emphasis on the need to vote, be pissed, and act. Things were going seemingly well until Haines chimed in with her statement on the mental health crisis in relation to gun violence.

Haines went on to talk about loneliness as an epidemic in the US and called it “the numbing of Americans everywhere; young boys, video games, porn.” Navarro eventually interrupted her by talking about how these things are present all over the world, and the issue of gun violence is contained in America. Hostin chimed in next in agreement with Navarro, focusing on the gun problem, until Whoopi finally called for a break.

‘Sara is blaming videogames???’

This segment of ‘The View’ gained a lot of popularity all over social media. The five and half minute clip was uploaded to YouTube and viewers had a lot of strong opinions about it. One viewer commented, “I don't want to be mean or rude to Sara because she's a lovely person, but it's embarrassing that she's trying to blame mass shootings on porn and loneliness. It's her new talking point because she's said it verbatim before. Ana is right, there's porn and loneliness all over the world. Stop dancing around the issue. The problem is the overwhelming number of guns in America and how unnecessarily easy it is to get access to them.”

Another wrote, “Sarah is such a bright, empathetic, thoughtful, very very wrong person sometimes.” This goes to show that normally, Sara is well-liked by the fans, but things might have changed a little after the said segment.

Another viewer commented, “Republicans cut funding for mental health Sara and you know that. I’m glad Sunny stood her ground about the focus needing to be on guns.”

The mention of video games did not go unnoticed as a viewer said, “How are people okay with Sara scapegoating video games again? It's a shame that there's no one there to defend the medium.” One wrote, “Wow Sara is blaming videogames??? Does she know how many professionals who wouldn't dream of harming a single soul that play games? Not to mention the 80s called and want their tired talking point back. We can't fix real issues with unserious people like this. People are literally dying and apparently, Super Mario is to blame. Can't make this sort of stuff up.”

By the looks of it, the viewers are trying to help Sara understand the issue as one wrote, “The gunman was sympathetic to nazism, as are many mass shooters. That's what's on going on here, Sara.” Lucky for Haines, Whoopi called for a break in the segment before things could escalate any further!
