LOL!
Jerry Rivers is a blithering idiot.
Hey Geraldo, the perp is Hispanic!
What kind of man are you, who cannot stand up straight, show your face, hold your place and speak your peace?
If you can't make your peaceful intentions clear, it's perfectly natural for someone to suspect you.
If I had a son who took up the habit of skulking around in a hoodie, he'd be in big trouble with ME.
Wasn't he the guy who failed to find a hoody in Al Capone's vault?
;-)
Why is he and Sarpton/Jackson and the “soft” State-run Media NOT covering THIS story???

Oh the irony. Jerry Rivers is a white guy who tries to pass himself off as Hispanic.
He has a good point. When you dress like a gang banger wannabie, people may mistake you for a gang member. If he had been dressed like Tiger Woods, he would be alive today.
That was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on TV. :-)
“Goes on an asinine diatribe about how black & latino people shouldnt wear hoodies, “
I’m with Geraldo on this one. People who wear hoodies when it’s not freezing out or pouring-down rain are creepy, nefarious looking people. Red, yellow, black, white... I don’t care what the person’s color is. I’d steer clear of anyone in the area wearing a hoodie.
I think the writer's point was that Geraldo was race-baiting. He repeatedly referred to "blacks, latinos, and people of color" as the ones who shouldn't wear hoodies. The writer puts it this way at the end of the piece:
"As an avid hoody wearer, Ive only been given hassle a couple of times when I forget to put my hood down when entering a bank. Which makes sense, considering I was in a bank. I guess it doesnt matter though since Im white as Miracle Whip, which according to Riveras formula makes it ok for me to wear one."
I agree with you.
When you outlaw hoodies only outlaws will have hoodies....oh wait...
Just wait, Geraldo will be doing a 2 hour special on “American Hoody-American Crime” any day.
Check your local listings for times in your area! ;-)
Spoken like a free market capitalist! :)
I don’t care who said it. Walking around in one of those things is like dressing like a biker. It’s not without a suggested image.
