Fox News Claims Michael Brown was Armed With ‘Large, Black Body’

FERGUSON, Mo. – Fox News this week disputed using the term “unarmed teenager” to describe Ferguson, Missouri resident Michael Brown, a black 18 year-old who was shot and killed by white police officer Darren Wilson earlier this month. Fox News contributor Linda Chavez suggested that Brown was armed, specifically with a “large, black body.”

“You know, that description in and of itself actually colors the way in which we look at this story,” said Chavez on an episode of Fox & Friends. “We’re talking about an 18-year-old man who is six foot four and weighs almost three hundred pounds. That’s a very large, black body he has at his disposal should things turn violent, as of course we know they did.” As Chavez made her comments on the program, a graphic beneath her read “Is ‘Unarmed Teen’ Description Misleading?”

This was not the first time that Chavez has argued that calling Brown an “unarmed teen” was misleading. In an op-ed written for the New York Post, she claimed “The actual images of Brown on the [convenience store surveillance] video surely do not bring to mind a harmless teen. Instead, they remind you of the sort of bio-engineered death soldiers usually only seen in superhero movies. The fact is, we have no way knowing whether or not Michael Brown was trained to kill.”

“I have to say, just looking at the guy scares me,” agreed Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy. “You know, those people can kill you with just their thumb. People talk about wanting to register gun owners, what about registering all these massive black men?”

    Only on Fox. With a last name of Chavez, I wonder if she’s legal.

    Much wrong has been committed against African Americans historically and specifically against black males. The perpetrators did not have the foresight to know free labor came at a huge psychological cost. Fear of large black men. Fear of becoming the minority. Fear of losing their guns. Fear of retaliation is always lurking in the subconscious for past wrongs that black people strive to be over. Most of us would like to be happy, do something useful, have peace of mind, earn a decent wage, and be able to afford a few frills just like you. Cultivating the talents of young black males is less costly then shooting them down in the streets or throwing them in jail. Or is the concept of numerous intelligent talented black males the most frightening thought ever conceived? Will another Pres. Obama whose historical roots actually come from this country’s past send republicans off roof top, screaming hysterically, or running to the borders in abject fear? Stop worrying about who runs this country when you have run out of idea that serve and protect all its citizens. There will be a cost to assess sooner or later, like it or not.

    I have seen some big white 18 yr males who look like thugs and was thugs an in fact, I have seen a lot white males who look a lot older for their ages so we can’t judge people by their color or races. Race seem to play a part when it suit the police to defend their wrong but if the table every turn and the white unarmed teenager get shot six or seven times by a black cop watch how the reaction change real quick. The reason of the fear is not by accident but by design and it will never change but the outcome will, the more blacks get killed the more protesting, marching and fear will be put into the hearts of the whites that they will be begging for a change. We have to change because in a few short years we will be a nations of all brown and black people and less white people, so we will have to learnto get a long together or we all are doom.

    This is why as a nation we are so divided. I bet that no one at Fox corrected her choice of words.
    To all my hispanic friends that have common sense, I stand with you.
