Here’s a quick breakdown of Geraldo Rivera’s Trayvon Martin segment on the show Fox & Friends:
0:01 – 0:18 – Talking about how George Zimmerman, "the person responsible for gunning down Trayvon Martin should be investigated to the full extent of the law."
0:19 – 2:55 – Goes on an asinine diatribe about how black & latino people shouldn’t wear hoodies, and how white people cross the street when someone of a darker color is walking towards them.

No, you aren’t watching a throwback clip from a news show taking place during the 50′s, 60′s, or even 70′s. It took place in 2012 … this morning. Rivera’s mustache is too big & grey for this to take place in the past.
It’s rare that I’m left speechless by anything said on mainstream news/infotainment, but this left my jaw on the floor. I’m still scrambling to pick it up. As I was just getting it back into place, I saw Rivera backed up his segment with a tweet....

Not just 'white people'; we know Jesse Jackson does same. . .he at least is grateful to turn around; and not find a person of color behind him. . .
We know too; that 'many' others out there in 'cityscapes'; feel the same.
Problem is, Conservatives have a conscious and don't sell their souls to make money, at least not this one.
It’s the sagging, baggy pants that get my attention, that as likely as not mean the yut is packing w/ a holster or Mexican style.
Gerry has figured out Zimmerman is Hispanic. Now it is not a whitey racist who killed an innocent black yute - it’s all the hoodie’s fault.
I'll say!
Hoodyism plain and simple. Zimmerman hates hoodies.
There oughta be a law...
OMG, Ted started the trend with a hoody before hoody’s were cool.
Only a libtard would prefer to ascribe the problem to an inanimate object rather than an individual’s behavior.
Failure to charge may well say something about the facts of the case. The demagoguery by the Obama and the rest of the race baiters says far more about the true nature of the the left.
“What kind of man are you, who cannot stand up straight, show your face, hold your place and speak your peace?”
The military salute originated with the practice by knights in armor of raising their visors to reveal their faces.
Good idea then, good idea now.
Doesn't matter what attire one is wearing. What matters is how someone looks and acts.
Some good friends, who are black and who attend the same church as we, have a son attending the US Naval Academy.
Their son runs every morning when he is home. And wears a hoodie when doing so.
I have never seen a single person in our otherwise all-white neighborhood purposely avoid him. Indeed, the entire development is proud to have him and the entire family as part of the community.
However, if he acted like the miscreants who compromise the major portion of juvenile detention centers and court dockets, whether hoodied OR NOT, anyone in their right mind, including Whore-aldo would avoid them.
Some one get a chair and let's see if he puts his money where his nose is?
I’m not convinced yet.
A hooded sweatshirt is the native Floridian’s version of a winter coat, especially for young people, both male and female.(Young as in anyone under 50)
Once again Geraldo Rivera sounds like a complete blithering idiot.
