Jemele Hill<\/a>\u00a0has upset thousands of people with her recent comments.<\/p>\n

CNN contributor Scott Jennings went toe-to-toe with the progressive writer over the Supreme Court allowing the Trump administration to implement its ban on transgender individuals in the U.S. military.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a few things that bother me about this, and mostly it was the language of the policy,\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>right? Hill started off her argument.<\/p>\n

When looking \u2014 reading some of these words, transgender people as \u2018inherently untruthful, undisciplined, dishonorable.\u2019 That\u2019s, like, a very weighty thing to say about people who are courageously deciding to protect this country. The other problem, Scott, is that it\u2019s never enough. It\u2019s bathrooms today, it\u2019s sports tomorrow. It\u2019s the military today,\u201d Hill said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Scott quickly jumped in and stated that men using women\u2019s bathrooms and men playing women\u2019s sports are already major issues. He also noted that the vast majority of Americans do not support any of it.<\/p>\n

That is when Jemele Hill took it to another level, by first mentioning that sometimes the majority of what people think is wrong.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s fine. And guess what? The majority sometimes is wrong. That also happens, right?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She then compared the push for transgenders in women\u2019s sports to Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement.<\/p>\n

Because the majority used to believe that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was somebody who was a threat, somebody who was not a good American,\u201d she replied. \u201cThe majority of people used to be against civil rights. Were they right? No, they weren\u2019t,\u201d she said in response.<\/p>\n

Later on in the conversation, Scott asked Jemele Hill if she really believes President Trump should recruit people who are \u201cvulnerable.\u201d<\/p>\n
