    The last time I checked, a temporary leave from work is not compensation for the value of a human life.

    Man, you already know how it goes. Cop kills someone, they get suspended with pay or some shit.

    'If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon.

    I think Trayvon's parents are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves, and we are going to get to the bottom of exactly what happened."

    that's some pretty powerful stuff..but Obama isn't lying

    his daughters are black, and if he had a son, he'd probably be just as black and subjected to the same stereotypes thrown upon bm as a group

    obama knows what's up:cool:

    Damn even amongst tragedy we can find some beauty. I love that this ship stopped being debatable and that everyone sees the injustice.

    This is a terrible tragedy all around.

    This Zimmerman guy sounds like a loose cannon.

    Geraldo Rivera blames hoodie for Trayvon's death; critics tell him to zip it up

    By James Eng, msnbc.com


    Zip it up. That was a common reaction Friday on the Web and elsewhere to Fox News personality Geraldo Rivera’s comments that the hoodie was as much to blame for Trayvon Martin’s death as the shooter.

    “Geraldo Rivera of Fox News has lost his mind. He's saying Trayvon Martin wearing a hoodie helped cause his own death?” CNN commentator Roland Martin, who is black, tweeted.
    “Hey Geraldo, Black kids have gotten shot not wearing hoodies. Dude, that's just dumb.”

    Rivera stirred up a firestorm when he said on Friday’s “Fox & Friends” that the black Florida teen might not be dead had he not worn a hoodie the night he was shot by a community watch volunteer George Zimmerman.

    “I believe that George Zimmerman, the overzealous neighborhood watch captain, should be investigated to the fullest extent of the law, and if he is criminally liable he should be prosecuted. But I am urging the parents of black and Latino youngsters particularly to not let their children go out wearing hoodies,” Rivera said.

    “I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin’s death as George Zimmerman was.”

    He added: "You have to recognize that this whole stylizing yourself as a gangsta, you’re going to be a gangsta-wannabe, well people are going to perceive you as a menace."
    The outspoken “Geraldo at Large” host, who is Latino, expressed similar sentiments in a column Friday titled, “Trayvon Martin Would Be Alive but for His Hoodie.”

    Whoa...dude better STFU

    I got two boys who wear hoodies because where they reside it colder than down here...but not cold enuff to warrent a jacket.

    My boys are not gangsta...or gangsta wannabes and they are NOT menaces.

    The person who kills my kid because he was wearing a hoodie better hope that his name and location don't get back to me. I will hurt him.
    Probably with a hoodie.

    That's just so fucked up. Treyvon is dead because zimmerman is a bigotted fucktard.

    That is all.
