Almost every week, Republicans join a competition to see who can say the most outlandish things, and in the process, they push the envelope on just how despicable InsaniTEA can become.  I trust that you will believe it, when I tell you that last week was no exception.

Fox News finds new ways to blame unarmed black men for their own deaths by cop.

FoxFandBAll these videotapes of unarmed black men being executed by cops are really starting to grate on Fox Newsians. On Friday’s stellar discussion on “The Five,” Eric Bolling and Kimberly Guilfoyle had to struggle to find a way to blame the black guy again. They were forced to grudgingly admit that Samuel DuBose should not have been shot and killed by Cincinnati cop Ray Tensing.

“It’s tough because look, first of all it’s a tragedy,” Bolling ventured. “There’s another instance where someone had a missing front license plate and ends up dead.”

But still, Bolling really feels, “everyone is rushing this,” even the prosecutor. “I’m not defending this at all, but people have to realize you can’t resist arrest.”

So, actually he is defending it.

“This guy is taking off,” he continued. “I don’t think that cop was fearing for his life, so I think he’ll probably be found guilty, but stop resisting.”

Yes, unarmed black people, stop making cops shoot you.

Guilfoyle agreed that the people who put themselves in danger are to blame, rather than the ones doing the shooting.

“Time and time again, it always comes down to someone getting hurt, getting killed, by bad decisions by a cop,” Bolling said. “But those decisions wouldn’t have been made if the perp didn’t run away. Can you imagine what society would be like if everyone thought, if I just run away that cop can’t chase me? We’d be a lawless society.”

So, thank goodness, the Fox Newsians were able to preserve their world view of innocent cops forced to make bad decisions by unruly black people. It’s getting harder and harder…

  1. 1.  Two things – first, I am in total agreement with the opinion that the car did not start moving until after the shot, that it was the dead weight of his dead foot on the accelerator which caused it to move.  Second, how does he make that apply to Baby Bou?

    2.  Well, UpChuck Huck.  Nuff said.

    3.  I think we all know who is disgusting.

    4.  With Nameless, I would prefer Palin to be in his Cabinet – because she would probably not be able to find her way out.

    5.  Clearly a lie can be alll the way around the world at least five times before the truth can  finish getting its shoes on.

    6.  Maybe she's way ahead of us all.  If it's an American canned or bottled beer, it's so toxic, she might be able to kill him with kindness.

    • You've a stronger stomach than I–reading your comment tells me I won't be up to reading the other ones through the link Joanne

  2. It's very hard to defend absurdities without being absurd oneself.  Thanks TC

  3. 1. Their favorite excuse is that "he/she was resisiting arrest". They use that no matter what the scenario.

    2. Huckabee has declared war on women. There can be no denying that now.

    3. Ditto, Joanne!

    4. Wow! She's special alright!

    5. She certainly proves her intelligence every time she opens her mouth. Who are all the people who "Like" this BS?

    6. Is she a "Stepford Wife"?

    6. 

     

  4. Alternet: 

    1. Once again, Faux Noise shows its true color: They're racists.

    2. Huckabee is a misogynist as his true color. 

    3. Trump obviously does not understand what breasts are truly for.

    4, Two peas in a pod…? 

    5. Palinsane no longer has her own TV web show as it was "anemic" and "stuck in the lame stream". Most likely can be said of her 4.4 million like followers. lol. 

    6. Tantaros seems to believe that women should be sex slaves to please a man. 

    Cartoon says it all.

  5. OOPS!   I voted again, that makes twice, sorry.

    Alternet:  Fox news can put a spin on anything to show that the black man was responsible.  Huckabee would probably call out the National Guard on women if he could, those pesky women are trying to control their own lives and bodies.   Trump thinks breasts are wonderful bulging out of bikinis, but not for feeding babies!  Shocking!  Misogynist indeed.   And, now he thinks Palin is smart?  Well, she can see Russia from her front porch, remember?  The use of the Confederate flag with the PP symbol was sheer genius.  As for the last post, get real.  I have a friend who tried these things way back in the sixties when we were still supposed to be petting and indulging hubby because he had a bad day.  He cheated on her regularly and beat her when she objected.  Yeah, we need to keep hubby happy.

    • That appears to answer the question of whether it is possible to vote twice.  I suspected it was, though maybe not from the same computer (there are all sorts of things I can do twice if I use different computers, even if they have the same IP address.  But I didn't want to try on a poll and affect its integrity.)

      But you can add to your comment or reply to someone else without voting again, if you go in through the "View" button (fact-checked).

  6. There are a bunch of mothers that have some explaining to do as to why they didn't abort these sorry excuses for human beings!  Asshats all . . . but then they are Republicanus/Teabaggerum.  (Sigh. . . )

    • I don't know how their mothers can stand it, unlesws they are too busy staying out of shose and staying pregnant to notice.

  7. Thankls all.  I'm sure there will be more coming.
