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.
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.
“Goes on an asinine diatribe about how black & latino people shouldn’t 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.
When you outlaw hoodies only outlaws will have hoodies....oh wait...
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.
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.
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.
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?
