Viewers were outraged today when Geraldo Rivera stated on “Fox and Friends” that he thought “the hoodie he wore was as much responsible for Trayvon Martin’s death as George Zimmerman was.” Of course this IS a questionable choice of words and George Zimmerman appears to be guilty of murder, but the hoodie MAY have played a part in his death. Geraldo said “It’s common sense for minorities to avoid wearing hoodies.” He believes parents should NOT allow their kids to go out wearing hoodies. He said “It’s those crime surveillance tapes – every time you see someone sticking up a 7-11, the kid is wearing a hoodie. Kids that look like gangsters will be treated like gangsters.” Rivera stressed that seventeen year old Martin was innocent and didn’t deserve to die. He hopes this issue will enlighten parents. We totally see Geraldo’s point. Did you know hoodies are banned at all events where President Obama makes an appearance?

Christened and Frankly again your comments about Janet show YOUR racist side. She was merely discussing Geraldos 2 cents and summing up HIS interview and yet YOU parlay that into what ‘Janet thinks” thus making her “racist”. Hey. Don’t shoot the messenger. She was just reporting something and now YOU go and twist it yet again into a “racist” thing. Go grab a mirror and really start thinking about who thrives on the idea of racism.
Interesting comments. I hadn’t read or heard dandelion’s version about Zimmerman being beaten. All I had read was that he was a neighborhood watch person who had the tendency to overreact and call 911 at a pin drop. Whatever happened before the shooting, no one has the right to chase someone armed with only iced tea and skittles and shoot them down.
The hoodie comment is complete bullshit. Why anyone still listens to Geraldo is beyond me.
I am so glad I am raising my girls on an Island off the west coast of Canada.
Y’all wanna kill each other down there.
The mindset is unfathomable to us.
Everyone is treated first class here.
Except chinks, faggots, niggers, spics, kikes and ragheads.
Sorry about the vulgarities.
I was just playing white guy, American.
If Janet doesn’t want to be painted as a racist, she should take some responsibility for the disgusting pig comments left on her site. Just delete them, simple. Why egg them on?
This racist stuff is just a part of the character of the person who writes it and nothing more. It’s their wheel house and if you hate that’s between you and God. Some make small comments others that all they ever talk about is race and their hate and that’s okay too. The majority of people care for their fellow man and wish them the best.
Join hands and sing, Oh Canada!
If you wear an item of clothing that increases the chances you will be arrested or shot,you do so at your own peril. That is the reality we live in. Having said that, I would encourage the knee jerk liberals who whine on this site to don a hoodie and go out late at night in a high crime area to exercize their right to wear whatever item of clothing they want. dopes
True and the Canadians that infest Florida and Arizona all winter can easily join hands and walk through the black and hispanic urban areas in Phoenix and Miami at night with or without their hoodies but with their wallets and shiny Rolex’s, Iphones or less desirable Blackberry’s and see what they have left when they emerge!
Canadians are smarter than that Strom.
They don’t use Blackberries.
And…Happy Birthday.
martin was wearing a hoodie cause it was cold, he put the hood part on because it started to rain.
he was on his cell phone telling his girlfriend that he was being followed,she told him to run but he decided to walk fast instead.
he did not live there but was visiting his dad and was returning from the store with drink and candy.
zimmerman should have stayed back and waited for the cops.
zimmerman should have been taken in until they sorted out the facts.
And what about the two English boys that were shot to death for no
other reason than that they were white! This also happened in Florida!
They were not robbed – just shot by a black thug- because they were also in the wrong place. Do we hear that rabble rousing POS Sharpton
saying that blacks have the right to shoot?
Does anyone care that some black prick, who had a gun, killed two innocent
people that got lost and lost their lives?
It’s not a question of wearing a fucking hoodie,
it’s a question of stupid thugs!
@ Walt Cliff,
What’s on the menu for this evening.
Get back with me soon, so that I can plan desert!!
P.S.
@Walt Cliff,
I meant *dessert!!
Please pardon one of the most misspelled words in The English Language.
desserts= stressed spelled backwards.
Of course you know this is meant to be a short diversion to this week’s News. Until Next Time!
Don’t worry. I have no intention of outting you, Sybil.
Just, don’t mess with Canadians.
Yeah!!
Janet C certifies her site has increased in viewership by 500% this year…in contrast to rants by many delusional posters!
About Janet Charlton’s Hollywood:
This site distinguishes itself from the middle school drama of others in its genre by giving new and returning visitors scoops months in advance, offering the specialty column “Hollywood Whodunit?” — a blind-item, ‘take-a-guess’ interaction — as well as a reach into the archives of legendary gossip Janet Charlton for the “What Do You Think of That” retrospective feature. Recently ranked #4 by GossisStrip, the site’s readership has increased 500% this year alone
Does nobody but libby realize it was raining that night? Who wouldn’t wear a hoodie when it’s raining?
Stop trying to make excuses for murder. That NRA-loving shoot-first pretend-neighborhood-watch bigot needs to be punished, not defended.
Up by 500%, eh.
Suck up.
Delusional posters? Riiiight.
You know I caught you mixing up your handles on a previous post. Shall I direct all back to the thread with the glaring error?
You are such a nutsy. But very amusing.

Who defended a murder? What about getting the whole truth out first before
So sad to hear of a young person’s death.
Trayvon’s dad listened to the screams and said they’re not his son’s. Trayvon was 6’3″,17 and an athlete, not a child. The security guard had injuries on his face and the back of his head. My guess is Trayvon wrestled him for the gun, which indicates the guard displayed it. Both are heartbreaking decisions. No telling who it would kill until it went off. They both lost, presumably both felt threatened. Two families devastated. I am appalled the ‘hoodie’ concept went viral. The young man’s apparel had nothing to do with it.
Only a racist would agree to stupidity. maybe janet should get rape because shes an old white woman wearimg: heels, dress, red hair. Maybe janet needs to get killed becaused she frowned at a black man. May she get run over by a bus for wearing an ugly hat. Maybe she needs to be shot in the facefor walking around with gang color red hair. Only if the catholic church would return to burn witches at the stake for having red hair. Only if a white guy can shoot her up with a dose of leathal herion for not sucking his dick for being a frigid dumb white woman and having a cob webby ass.
What a foolish and racist rant from a foolish acting poster.
Zimmerman may not be the loose cannon he was made to appear. Obama came out on this before he had all the facts, it seems.
So I guess it is ok for white kids to wear hoodies??? because they dont commit crimes is that right? Wearing hoodies is not a black thing, everybody wears hoodies. Janet you sound like a fool
Guns dont kill people, people kill people
Hoodies dont commit crimes, hoods commit crimes

“Dunno if Janet is having this stance for stats or if she’s a liberal who one day got mugged by a kid in a hoodie all I know is she has let Strom run and ruin this site with his racist rants but she deleted my pro-fur post on a anti-fur thread. I call that Cali-Phony.”
Recently ranked #4 by GossisStrip, the site’s readership has increased 500% this year alone.
Evidently few agree with the Zipskin and doubt his post was deleted.
Rantings of a PC enabler!

Hoodies is not the problem, RACISM is the problem. I can’t believe that supposedy intelligent people are buying into this BullCrap about Hoodies being the problem
This seems to be taking a new turn and Zimmerman seems to have shot in self defense after being beaten up by Tray.
Where are all the haters now and the enablers of everything BLACK? Where is Obama now?
