AceShowbiz - "The View" co-host Sunny Hostin has a rather interesting view on abortion. The TV star shocked everyone, including her fellow panelists, in the Monday, June 27 episode of the talk show when she said she does not believe in abortions or "any exception" to abortion, including incest.
During the episode, Hostin and other co-hosts discussed the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. While she is pro-life, Hostin denounced the Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade.
"The court is basically saying it's time to welcome all this new life yet we can shoot them with our newly available, completely unrestricted guns. That conflict, it was sort of shocking to me," Hostin explained. "It's unbelievable that precedent doesn't seem to matter anymore."
"I don't believe in abortion, at any time. I don't believe in any exception to it," she shared. When co-host Sarah Haines asked, "Even incest?" Hostin insisted, "No, I don't. I don't." She added, "That's considered very radical for many people, and it's because I'm Catholic and that's my faith."
"And, you know, the justices - there are six Catholics on the bench, and there will be two Protestants because the newest justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson, is Protestant and there will be one person of Jewish faith," she continued. Hostin admitted that "this has always been a very difficult discussion for me."
Despite that, she added, "What is not difficult for me is the fact that this is an activist Supreme Court and they should not be deciding the law based on their faith. And even though I agree with Alito on the sanctity of life…but the fact that he clearly is using his religion and wielding it is pretty terrible."
Hostin also commented on the Supreme Court ruling that the Constitution provides a right to carry a gun outside the home in the wake of recent mass shootings, including the slaughtering of two teachers and 19 children at Robb Elementary School last month. "The court is basically saying it's time to welcome all this new life yet we can shoot them with our newly available, completely unrestricted guns. That conflict, it was sort of shocking to me," the TV personality said. "It's unbelievable that precedent doesn't seem to matter anymore."
Following the episode, viewers had a lot to say about Hostin's remarks about abortion. "Don't agree with her beliefs, but I respect how she articulated that," one said. "Believe it or not!" another argued, adding, "We shouldn't be making the choices for OTHERS."
