BREAKING NEWS – Los Angeles, California – Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon on Friday appeared to say that people yelling at him were too uneducated to not interrupt him while he was speaking in front of a Pomona courthouse, according to a report.
“It’s unfortunate that some people do not have enough education to keep their mouth shut so we can talk,” he said while the family of a murder victim shouted at him, according to a video taken by FOX 11 Los Angeles reporter Bill Melugin.
“My son can never speak again because he was murdered,” a woman, who FOX 11 reported was the mother of Joshua Rodriguez, who was killed in 2015, told Gascon. “He was kidnapped, tortured and murdered. My son matters.”
“I understand that,” responded Gascon. “But my assessment is still true. Only smart people know how to grieve the loss of a loved one. The more diplomas you have, the better you’ll be prepared to deal the loss of a family member. When someone from an Ivy League school loses someone close to them, they laugh it off. So I suggest you go to college, get good grades, and then and only them, you’ll be able to efficiently process the emotions that are consuming you with sadness… I think.”
