The Trayvon Martin trial opened a scab on festering American racism; but, rather than address the serious racial inequalities in our justice and economic system, and the bigotry that is the basis for racial profiling, Fox News hosts have tried to divert the discussion by saying that blacks have only themselves to blame for the problems. While black on black crime is only slightly more prevalent than white on white, Fox dwells on violence in the black community. But despite claims that the minority community is engaging in baseless victimhood, a recent school bus assault of a white boy, by black youths, has now become a cause celebre for the right. They claim that this is a black on white hate crime for which black leaders owe a public apology. This week, Greg Gutfeld suggested that this behavior is typical of "corrosive" black culture and in so doing, continued the racist stereotypes which portray African-Americans as lazy and criminal. His "Five" homies validated him with whines about the silence of the minority and liberal community. Ah, don't ya love the smell of Jim Crow in the evening!

Recently, video has been released that shows three 15 year old African-American boys viciously assaulting a white 13 year old on a Florida school bus. According to news reports, the incident occurred after the 13 year old told school authorities that the older boys tried to sell him marijuana while they were all in the bathroom at their school drop-out program. While the mainstream media focuses on the controversy about why the school bus driver didn't intervene, the right wing media is on fire about how this situation is the reverse of Trayvon Martin and as such, black leaders, who were outraged about the Trayvon Martin verdict, should be outraged about this.

On Monday night, those on "The Five" discussed the incident which resulted in charges being filed against the attackers. They differed on whether the driver should have intervened. Gutfeld ascribed the cause of the brawl as "the consequences of a dying morality and a break-down of family." Jesse Watters said that "Sharpton needs to make an example of this." Gufeld lied about how juvenile delinquency has "skyrocketed" when it is declining. Engaging in some patented Fox slut shaming, he said it's "proportional to out of wedlock births" He claimed that Obama avoids discussion of this issue when Obama addressed it during his commencement speech at Morehouse and his 2008 Father's Day remarks. Somebody recommended that the assaulted boy be given a scholarship.

Tuesday, Gutfeld doubled down in his attack on the black community. He started his homily with a Bill O'Reilly like lament about the decline in values. He lied, again, about "explosive juvenile delinquency." In a slut shaming slam on unwed mothers, he said "free love begets free pain." He ascribed the bus incident as a "symptom of a culture that forgot consequences in choosing immediate consequences over long term, familiar commitment." He cited unemployment figures for black teens and how that has lead to "stomping a kid on a bus while holding on to your stupid saggy pants." After blaming "corrosive government programs," he suggested that black teens just don't have a work ethic because they want to "shun work and sell drugs." He, again, lied about how Obama ignores the problems in the black community.

He pointed out how this is not being considered a hate crime even though it was three blacks against a white. Fox's newest acceptable black, right wing radio host, David Webb claimed that if this were white on black violence, black leaders would be irate. Andrea Tantaros didn't know if it was racially motivated but then cited how, because it was three blacks on one white, "it certainly appears that way."  She wanted to know where the anti-bullying and the "Hollywood community" are. Engaging in a patented racist trope of reverse racism, she played to the sense of white victimhood at the hands of brutal blacks with the comment that "because it's three black kids on a white [she zipped her lips] they don't say a word."  Liberal Bob Beckel accused liberals of being "silent." Without having all the facts of the case, the boy who "said no to drugs" was praised.

Who knew that white families are intact, have a work ethic, and kids who never commit crime. But if African-Americans need to apologize for bad behavior on the part of those in the minority community, who should apologize for Greg Gutfeld's racist idiocy cuz he does make us white folks look bad!
