Geraldo Rivera - now in year 35 of his 15 minutes.

look at the ad that shows up above ....'Design Custom Hoodies'....

should he have had on it 'not a gansta', geraldo?......I'm surprised the morons at fox were even covering the story...

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can't stand it when I see all these kids walking around in 85 degree heat with their hoodies on and their pants 14 sizes too big all drooping around their ankles and showing their butt cracks. But that does not give anyone the right to shoot them. Mr. Zimmerman should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and Geraldo Rivera should be locked in Al Capone's vault, never to be heard from again.

While I hate to see the kids wearing these it's no excuse to shoot them, So no I don't feel he has any fault in his own death.

I find the very impertinence of this question insulting, racist, and highly prejudicial. 

My only solace in the matter is that the Judge has already empaneled (and hopefully sequestered) the Jury to avoid all the racially charged sensationalism that surrounds this case. 

In the event that this proves a bias-motivated crime, that the assailant is convicted as an adult, and is confined for life, realize that even prisoners have some standards of conduct.

This very disturbed young man will be recruited into a white supremacist prison gang, they will teach him how to perfect the techniques of contract murder, he will become a career criminal, and will re-offend, probably a few weeks after his release.

What have we learned of these demented persons other than they go from bad to worse?

We have learned that we should have given them the proper example earlier in life that would ideally have included Church, Boy Scouting, and all else that makes for an upstanding citizen -- who will defend his life but will not recklessly endanger others as do leftists.

Trayvon wore clothes
ass'd w/ skilled construction workers.
They wear hoodies b/c
they pad their hard hats.

Steel toed boots R called weapons by leftists.
Safety chain on Ur wallet is "gang related."
Safety goggles R racist 2 leftists.
Protective gloves = motorcycle gang stuff.

Murderer had been in college among leftists.
That is the nonsense they drilled N2 him 24-7
Do anything constructive or useful.
Leftists always call it a threat.

Leftists drive ppl to grudges. What good is there in that? Elections here are over. Fix up what Obama ruined.

this logic is total garbage. should women not wear sexy clothes because they are asking to get raped? what do you expect coming from the right wing fox opinion news.

democrat and proud of it. someone trying to learn about conservatism before it becomes extinct

NO!!! How could he be partially responsible when he did nothing wrong. There is no law against wearing a hoodie and the last time I checked there was no law against being black in a suburban neighborhood. This question is an insult to injury. This is like saying a rape victim was partially responsible for being raped because of wearing a short tight fitted dress.
