Geraldo Rivera In Hot Water For His Comments About Orlando Victims

http://youtu.be/9txpqP5K9aw/ Western Journalism 01:09

Published on Jun 14, 2016

Fox News personality Geraldo Rivera criticized the victims during a live appearance on Monday’s Fox & Friends at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

Geraldo Rivera:
‘When you’re in that situation and you have no weapons you have two choices. If you can’t hide and you can’t run, there’s only two choices: You stay and die or you fight.
For God’s sake, fight back. Fight back. There’s a hundred people that he murdered with one weapon that he reloaded.
When he reloaded they must, people must, America must understand we are at war with Islamic terror, with these terrorists.
‘We’ve got to stop them in Raqqa [in Syria], we’ve got to stop them in Mosul [in Iraq] and we’ve got to stop them in the Pulse Orlando.

Brian Kilmeade:
But they’re not. We’re asking an Arab army to go into Raqqa when they have the time. They don’t want to fight our guys that are trained to fight them. They want to find the people who are just living their lives. So these are gutless terrorists.

It's a good thing he didn't say something stupid like...they were confused on which bathroom to hide in. Didn't he get his *** beat years ago?

In a slaughter, all can cower and surely die.
Or, all/many/some/ONE, can stand and fight.
Fighting doesn't guarantee survival, but it does
increase the odds that others may live.

I don't even like Geraldo.
But for once, I agree with him.

"SEATTLE -- Seattle Pacific University has confirmed the identity of the student who stopped a gunman on campus, possibly saving lives.
Jon Meis was acting as a student building monitor Thursday when the gunman entered the foyer at Otto Miller Hall and started shooting. A 19-year-old man was killed and two other young people were wounded.
Police say that as the gunman paused to reload, the 22-year-old Meis pepper-sprayed him and subdued him with the help of others"

Why is it that every single time I hear someone say "X shames Y over Z", in which the speaker is *siding* with Y... that person is full of crap?

It's like... every... single...time...

It's as if these people want to live in a world that glorifies victimhood.

Geraldo is a *****. I wasn't there. He wasn't there. And nobody knows how they'll react in a situation like that. But I am kind of wondering why, a guy comes into a club carrying a rifle, shoots a bunch of people, reloads and walks around shooting a bunch more, and nobody, not one freaken person, throws a chair at him or a glass or bottle at his head, they run to the bathrooms and send out texts??????

its a matter of only seeking blame or speaking about 'responsibility'

sometimes talking about responsibility sounds a lot like 'blaming' when it happens out of context or balance of acknowledging responsibility of more than one party

I said I had responsibility for not listening to my instincts when I was assaulted at the park,,,,many only want to focus on the assailants 'blame' , advising that I take no 'responsibility' for it

its just about the balance,,,,not scapegoating but speaking about the broader responsibilities

Actually in some situations it can actually provoke an attacker.... Fighting isn't always the best idea.

The shooter was already shooting people.
Obvious choice, is to flee.

When fleeing wasn't an option,
the choices are hide and die.
Or, fight, and maybe stop the shooter.

What Is the Fight-or-Flight Response?

June 15, 2016

The fight-or-flight response, also known as the acute stress response, refers to a physiological reaction that occurs in the presence of something that is terrifying, either mentally or physically. The response is triggered by the release of hormones that prepare your body to either stay and deal with a threat or to run away to safety.

The fight-or-flight response was first described in the 1920s by American physiologist Walter Cannon.
