Fox's Brian Kilmeade refers to Irish and Italians as 'other species'

Fox and Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade seems to think that Italians and Irish people are something other than human.

While extolling the virtues of Swedish and Finnish societies, which he believes forbid their citizens from marrying outside their own ethnicities, Kilmeade suggested that marrying people of Irish or Italian descent amounts to bestiality.



KILMEADE: We keep marrying other species and other ethnics--

GRETCHEN CARLSON: Are you sure you are not suffering from some of the causes of dementia right now?

KILMEADE: The problem is the Swedes have pure genes. They marry other Swedes, that's the rule. Finns marry other Finns; they have a pure society. In America we marry everybody. We will marry Italians and Irish.

DAVE BRIGGS: This study does not apply?

KILMEADE: Does not apply to us.

[pause]

KILMEADE: Huh.
Wow.

Ironically, Ancestry.com says the surname "Meade" is an Irish variant of the English "Mead," which means "from the meadow."

Does Brian Kilmeade have a family? If so, is Mrs. Kilmeade aware that her children are, at best, only half human?
