Fox News finds new ways to blame unarmed black men for their own deaths by cop.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"FoxFandB\"All these videotapes of unarmed black men being executed by cops are really starting to grate on Fox Newsians. On Friday\u2019s stellar discussion on \u201cThe Five,\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s tough because look, first of all it\u2019s a tragedy,\u201d Bolling ventured. \u201cThere\u2019s another instance where someone had a missing front license plate and ends up dead.\u201d<\/p>\n

But still, Bolling really feels, \u201ceveryone is rushing this,\u201d even the prosecutor. \u201cI\u2019m not defending this at all, but people have to realize you can\u2019t resist arrest.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, actually he is defending it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis guy is taking off,\u201d he continued. \u201cI don\u2019t think that cop was fearing for his life, so I think he\u2019ll probably be found guilty, but stop resisting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes, unarmed black people, stop making cops shoot you.<\/p>\n

Guilfoyle agreed that the people who put themselves in danger are to blame, rather than the ones doing the shooting.<\/p>\n

\u201cTime and time again, it always comes down to someone getting hurt, getting killed, by bad decisions by a cop,\u201d Bolling said. \u201cBut those decisions wouldn\u2019t have been made if the perp didn\u2019t run away. Can you imagine what society would be like if everyone thought, if I just run away that cop can\u2019t chase me? We\u2019d be a lawless society.\u201d<\/p>\n

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\u2019s getting harder and harder\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
