Fox News Speculates Trayvon Martin Could Have Killed Someone With Skittles And Iced Tea

[LanternWaste]

“I know everybody keeps sarcastically saying about he Skittles,” Burns said. “You could probably kill somebody with Skittles.”

“The thing is, yeah, you’re spinning a lot of hypotheticals,” Burns said. “And you could break a bottle of iced tea, right, with the jagged edge, and you could kill somebody with it.”

Last year, Fox and Friends host Geraldo Rivera sympathized with Zimmerman and prompted widespread protest over his remark that “I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin’s death as George Zimmerman was.”

Idiots. Half-educated, sub-literate idiots.

1. If you really wanted to kill someone, you'd have a gun.

There was only one guy there with a gun.

2. Maybe someone should tell those idiots

It was a can

[auburngrad82]

3. Yeah, but he could have taken the can and, uh, uh, made a bong out of it. nt

9. Do non-alcoholic beverages even get sold or bottled in glass anymore?

Do non-alcoholic beverages even get sold or bottled in glass anymore? I can't remember the last time I've had a soda or tea in anything other than plastic bottles.

[RandiFan1290]

10. Yeah, I still see some bottles

Starbucks coffee products come to mind. I don't buy them but I remember seeing the glass bottles.

[exboyfil]

15. My favorite

Yoo-hoo still comes in glass.

[gvstn]

16. And it wasn't tea but fruit drink.

[SummerSnow]

4. And those damned deadly skittles.........

"taste the rainbow has never been scarier"
















such bullshit knows no bounds.

[alcibiades_mystery]

5. Well, his friends did call him Trayvon "Gangsta Macguyver" Martin, according to an unnamed Zimmerman

relative, so who knows?

[11 Bravo]

6. You beat me to it!

I was just getting ready to post the same story, but with a different link. Un-fucking-believable!

[pacalo]

7. Poor Zimmerman. All he had was a paranoid mind & a loaded gun.

[SwissTony]

8. "a bottle of iced tea...with the jagged edge"

Oh, yes. The preferred weapon of professional assassins for centuries.

I like it when we have professionals providing insight.

[Xipe Totec]

11. Even a pretzel can be a deadly weapon in the right hands

[Skittles]

12. I woul love to kill me some Fox News

[Cirque du So-What]

13. Skittles will kick your ass

Just ask her.

[GeorgeGist]

14. We do know that Skittles kicks ass.

[AsahinaKimi]

17. ooooh boy.

Now you've done it.

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. Oh, dear. You've just auto-signed-up for an automatic ass-kicking.

Please adjust your schedule accordingly.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

18. Great. Now Bloomberg will outlaw ice tea and Skittles in NYC. nt

[grok]

20. you could kill somebody with a sock

with stuff in it like some rocks, keys, or even a full soda can. a full can would maintain it's structural shape even after you dinged somebody with it.

On the other hand, an Arizona can would have a hard time fitting in anything but a knee high sports sock. And Martin died with his socks on.
