I was, once again, apalled by the insensitivity Fox News and its commentators have displayed (I don't know why I'm so surprised) when they talked about the Trayvon Martin case in Florida. Geraldo Rivera entered the public discussion and, quite frankly, should exit immediately! On the news channel's show, Fox And Friends, Rivera made the comment the Martin's hoodie was "just as responsible" for his death as the shooter, George Zimmerman.
Are you freaking kidding me? So, basically, I guess Geraldo is saying that, if you go around wearing a hoodie, you're obviously up to no good, people think you're a threat, and will shoot you? Come on! Give me a break! I think 'ol Geraldo needs to deal with that ugly mustache of his instead of giving ignorant and insensitive commentary!
And, while we're on the topic of the Trayvon Martin case, the whole thing is a travesty! Zimmerman said he was "acting in self-defense" but, from what? I mean, come on! I don't buy that BS one bit! I'll tell you one thing, if that guy doesn't go to trial soon, this country will go crazy!
My thoughts and prayers to the family of Trayvon Martin.
