When it comes to expressing opinions on gun control, Fox News host Andrea Tantaros said on Thursday that supermodels should keep their mouths shut and their clothes off.

Following the shooting near Parliament in Ottawa, Canada on Tuesday, supermodel Chrissy Teigen made what The Huffington Post called “a good point” about the difference between gun violence in the U.S. and other countries.

“Active shooting in Canada, or as we call it in america, wednesday,” she wrote on Twitter.

“That’s not a joke. It is a fact,” she added.

“She should stay on Instagram,” OutNumbered host Andrea Tantaros quipped. “Chrissy Teigen is known for, obviously, her lovely bottom, and her food Instagram pictures. She should stick to that.”

And now Teigen has been run off of Twitter due to hateful & vile responses, such as:

1. ah, no. see? shit like this is not used as a weapon against women. nah....

not at all.

[strawberries]

2. it's women on women

how is it used as a weapon against women?

[Ykcutnek]

3. I've heard just as many misogynistic comments from women as I have men.

Everyone uses it as a weapon.

Women-on-women misogyny is a major problem.

5. Pfft

[shenmue]

4. JVP should know threats are illegal

Jerk needs a visit from the FBI.

[Initech]

6. Fox News: Proudly suppressing the opinions of anyone who's not a rich white man since 1997!

[joeybee12]

7. Has anyone identified who JV President is?

Why does he still have a Twitter account?

[demmiblue]

8. Thankfully, it appears that that account has been suspened.

[joeybee12]

9. Good...thanks...nt

[ck4829]

10. "How dare you offend our mass shootings?! They're as American as Apple Pie!1!"

[muntrv]

11. ...but ignoramuses like ted nugent are OK.

[MineralMan]

12. To Andrea Tantaros: Did you suppose that Faux Nooz hired

you for your massive and magnificent brains?

Really?

Good luck with all that.

16. Butt, but... Her hair. Storefront?

[bluestateguy]

13. She can get away with saying the sexist things that a conservative white male would not

That's why they hire her.

[samsingh]

14. fox hosts, who are ugly, should shut up

[Initech]

15. Fox News hosts have no brains, they should stick to that.

17. I guess the common belief is that if a woman says something misogynist, then it's not so bad

Had an old, white man said what Andrea did, there would have been more outrage.

[seabeyond]

18. really? like boobs on the ground, said by a fox guy.... ? or all the zillion of other sexist cracks

men on fox have made lead you to believe, only the women get away with it?

[davidn3600]

19. And Bolling was forced to apologize on air for that

Has Kimberly Guilfoyle apologized for saying young women shouldnt vote suggesting that they are stupid? What if a male had said that on the air?

When I was growing up, I remember girls calling each other all sorts of misogynistic names. And there are some people who think in that context that it's OK. I remember here on DU a jury allowed a female DUer to use the c-word, but another post was hidden when the word was used by a man. What message do you think that sends?

Now the misogynists just have to get a few women on their side to make those comments for them. And there appears to be no shortage of women willing to do that.

[seabeyond]

20. fox news is all sexist, all the time. without apology. i am not gonna argue with you about patriarch

patriarchy is a condition of both sexes, no one is immune.

nor would any feminist.

[Johonny]

21. If Andrea Tantaros looked like Ernest Borgnine would she be on outnumbered?

When in a glass house don't throw a stone.
