Going full Leeroy Jenkins, MSNBC’s ReidOut host Joy Reid and her A-block panel decided on Thursday night to flaunt their lack of brain cells, insisting Ma’Kiyah Bryant was someone whose “character” has been “demoniz[ed]” after having been murdered by a Columbus, Ohio police officer because she had “a bad day.”

They even went as far as suggesting Bryant’s use of a knife to attack another girl had been triggered by the presence of the officer and she may have had the knife “to defend herself” from the other girls. And this came 24 hours after Reid and another set of guests downplayed Bryant's attempted stabbing as something that happens plenty of times at schools where everyone comes out safe and sound.
