Jane Fonda Responds to Right-Wing Fury Over Her ‘Murder’ Quip
The View was thrown into a bit of chaos on Friday when legendary actress Jane Fonda said she had “thoughts of murder” as a solution to stem the wave of anti-abortion laws sweeping the United States.
“She’s just kidding,” co-host Joy Behar exclaimed in response, prompting Fonda to shoot her a mockingly dirty look.
Fonda’s remarks, though apparently made in jest, immediately sparked outrage among conservatives and anti-abortion activists, who claimed the 9 to 5 star was “inciting violence against pro life politicians.”
