I've been following this American Trayvon Martin tragedy a bit, and most of it, to me, just primarily reaffirms why you do not arm the general population. The fact that there was even a question of having an investigation initially, does SCREAM race inequality in a way that only America can, but for me it all boils down to--no guns, no dead innocent kid.
Here's something I thought was worth writing about though. I read a bit of an article in the Globe and Mail this morning about the 'hoodie', which disdainful mentioned that Geraldo Rivera had blamed Trayvon Martin's death on wearing one. It sounded so awful and repugnant an attitude I just had to see it for myself. Scouring through 'news' articles from America's liberal media I found many scornful references to it and finally a clip on MSNBC.
ARE MOST AMERICANS EMOTIONALLY CHALLENGED?
Having made many Canadian liberal friends, I have certainly indulged in observing the outlandish irrationality of conservative Americans whose brains seem more fired up on beer and sausages than actual brain cells. However, I've come to see that the liberals are just the same.
Take this clip of Geraldo that the liberal media has taken such an issue with. He makes perfectly rational statements--surprisingly rational statements! It actually makes me wonder how many other perfectly rational statements I might have summarily written off in my youth because of a perverted bias against conservatives.
