guys it's time for tonight's tool time award and tonight the war because the fox news host for all the rivera he's the ace reporter used to be most famous for being escorted out of iraq by the pentagon for giving away the positions of u.s. soldiers back in two thousand and three but after this morning he will now be famous as the man who blamed the hoodie for the death of trayvon martin the up until now you may have thought it was natural person that killed trayvon and that person would be george zimmerman but according to her although it turns out that it was really just a piece of cloth a hooded sweatshirt here's the dire warning. i am urging the parents of black and latino youngsters particularly to not let their children go out wearing hoodies i think who he is as much risk constable for trayvon martin's death as george zimmerman was all the big guy we had such an astute political and social commentator to warn us about the dangers of

a piece of clothing but literally every single kid in america wears returns out the hoodie takes on a whole different cultural significance when the person wearing it isn't white. yes to recognize that this whole style was seeing yourself as a gangster you're going to be against a wannabe well people are going to push you as a menace that's what happens it is an instant reflex apache yeah you see not only does wearing a hoodie instantly make you look a criminal but chasing an unarmed black man down the street killing him in cold blood has apparently an instant reflective action for most americans now everyone know that when i see a black or latino guide a hoodie my first instinct instinct is to whip out a gun chase them down the street and kill him oh no way that is make sense does it so i wonder what a young person of color has to do not to get gunned down the street what sort of attire be permitted for her although it may be a suit because that has please don't kill me written all over it before you get all

offended let's let her although clear few things up here which he did earlier today on twitter turns out that he's just trying to save the lives guy's he tweeted justice will come to zimmerman and the florida shooter but i'm trying to save lives like trayvon parents alert hoodies can get your kids killed yes parents don't feel or that there are stand your ground laws in florida and twenty three other states across the country which empowered random citizens to gun down kids without so much as being arrested so don't be concerned that we live in a society where racism is still incredibly prevalent peeler about a sweatshirt because that's what will get your kids killed minutes later he responded to the growing outcry witness that it's not blaming the victim it's common sense look like a gangsta and some arm schmuck will take you at your word the logic is perfect if you put on a road it's worth your while being black you are announcing to every single person on the street if you are a gangster if why you're just saying hello it's raining and i've got

a hood on but if you're a black guy who he is like putting a bull's eye on your chest for much money doesn't want to hit a bull's eye right so just to recap in her all those worlds and really it's really trade. and as parents of course that he was gunned down the schmuck was acting on instinct which tells him that a black going to what he is thinking said what happens next hold that simply wasn't in his control so saying that a hoodie and a man who chased a young our boy down the street and killed him are equally to blame for his death geraldo rivera is can i it's tool time matter. now as our regular viewers know we've been keeping close tabs and life wide net surveillance of muslims all throughout the northeast for no other reason than being muslim and that's pissed off everybody from new jersey governor chris christie to civil libertarians obviously to the f.b.i. officials and it turns out that those aren't the only law abiding citizens that the n.y.p.d. was exacting all over the u.s. to monitor a new a.p.

investigation is revealed and y.p. was spying on activists as far away as new orleans according to interviews and documents and april two thousand and eight and why p.t. sergeant attended the people's summit is a protest a meeting of american canadian and mexican leaders in the big easy which was very much and of course the n.y.p.d. says the surveillance was all part of the threat assessment and the pinky sort but it wasn't political now they should really just tell us the ads of this and the organizers recount a catalogue by the n.y.p.d. for doing nothing other than engaging in constitutionally protected speech as one journalist mentioned and why beauty's report jordan flaherty told the a.p. the only threat is the threat of ideas so the next thing you know the n.y.p.d. will be assessing the threat of mardi gras beads on top of this new yorkers out of the big easy to have a good time because right somebody has got to keep the big apple safe but once again i might be here standing by there spying tourism they say that they have the right to send undercover cops anywhere the public can go for so-called operational

planning the federal government i think the different court in the reports last month the justice department started considering whether or not to launch an investigation into and why p.t. surveillance of muslims now the n.y.p.d. is traveling down into orleans to monitor protests and driving muslims all over the northeast that one can only imagine how they're reacting to the occupy movement they just last night we had we spoke with truthout jason leopold to discuss the department of homeland security's role in monitoring the movement and truthout was the first organization to file a formal request and they got. almost four hundred pages worth of material all there is no smoking gun from v.h.s. in terms of unconstitutional surveillance i wondered last night whether or not and other local police forces might be the ones that are really doing the heavy lifting aka the dirty work now we haven't seen the results but leopold so that he expected the department suppression of the occupy movement to surface faster than you can say for them in violation if and when those documents are disclosed that is. but

you also try to go local to the n.y.p.d. has the freedom of information law in new york and do you think that that's where i mean that to me sounds almost more fascinating it remains to be seen what they'll turn over there's no question in my mind that the photographs c.d.o. clearcuts threat assessments. so it's a matter of time before they at least. you know what they'll turn over and what's privileged. today's revelations of the n.y.p.d. spying on lesley activists or their political leanings as well as the revelations about her spying program on muslims for their religion all that seems to have some weight and we have all suspicions now obviously we're going to have to wait and see until the documents come out but there's one thing that we learned from this boy is documents the truth that received at the feds were actually cautious and knew their civil surveillance to be highly scrutinized so maybe they're leaving it to local law enforcement to really get in there and we know the n.y.p.d.

knows how. now we talk about the influence of defense contractors in washington all the time the military industrial complex at work keeping defense budgets high people have time to spare is on the line for weapons projects that can last decades and cost billions not a trillion case in point the f. thirty five joint strike fighter the most expensive weapons program to date recent government accountability office report shows that cost overruns in the first four pre-commit contracts are more than a billion over budget combined but the air force is sticking with it and they're just going to have to settle with fewer planes so you think that the company behind the f. thirty five lockheed martin if they might face a penalty they might lose the trust of the government to be awarded so many contracts importunate that's far from the case in fact lockheed just secured a major strategic win in the obama administration's two thousand and thirteen budget request lauren thomson is a former lockett adviser he claims the basing this on excessive influence over

government is. just conspiracy theory but i bet that we can prove wrong so joining me to discuss it is their political director of new foundation gary thanks so much for joining us tonight i know first of all when you look at this twenty thirteen budget that's been proposed by the obama administration do you see lockheed martin as a clear winner. well i think lockheed martin has is and has remained a winner for years despite the fact that they're one of the most corrupt and guilty of misconduct companies that does business with the federal government and i just have to say you mentioned loren thompson's article i mean i think we should take lockheed martin and give them a little bit of credit that they know how to spend money effectively when it comes to getting profits for their shareholders and if it wasn't profitable for lockheed martin to be dumping eleven million dollars in the last year and a half into lobbying and a hundred twenty six million over the lifetime of the company and the lobbying they wouldn't be doing it they know exactly what they're doing they're trying to buy our congress out from under us yeah but at the same time if we talk about this article

waiting i found i don't know a new thing and disturbing and just odd on so many levels so he claims of the people out there that think that maybe the influence that lockheed martin then in effect has over washington people are all just conspiracy theorists and really it's the lot he just doesn't such a good job that they're you know they're better at execution phrase tell me how they're better execution if the f. thirty five a straight biter is supposed to be an example well i would love to be able to say that they are execution if it were anything remotely approaching true i mean the simple fact is they don't even act as good stewards of the money they're given they have more than sixty six instances impose government misconduct database for contractors and the one of the most find in corrupt companies that does this is a federal government they have thirty five's a prime example it was approved by a gentleman in the pentagon named pete aldridge who right after he got done approving that spending and then some f. twenty two spending which is another lockheed product that month he went to work

for lockheed martin on their payroll he left the pentagon went straight to that company now it's absolutely clear from that that there's no way that he could have been making good decisions on behalf of the taxpayer and he had his eye on the exit and that's just legal corruption that's rampant all over the pentagon and it's something lockheed martin relies. now we actually asked and figure is here to talk about how much life it is you know involved how much money they like to give and this comes from the sunlight foundation so since one thousand nine hundred ninety lockheed has given twenty three million over twenty three million dollars basically in campaign financing they spent one hundred twenty five million on lobbying hiring some of the biggest republican and democratic lobby for his washington received over twenty million earmarks received thirty one grants and fifteen thousand plus contracts in the federal government and had two hundred fifty seven of their people on one hundred thirty five government advisory committees so i think that unfortunately we all kind of assume that this is what happens in washington this

happens all the time do you think that lockheed is really nasty or they are they better than the other defense contractors that it will treat their own head of this as a green article out about this really call them the perfect pay to play company and they're really correct i mean lockheed martin if you look at where most of their political donations go to they go to buck mckeon who is the chairman of the house armed services committee that has oversight on a lot of the programs that they have an interest in within the federal government and it's that way on the. appropriations committees on the senate appropriations subcommittee on defense it's like that all over the federal government they know exactly where to put their dollars to get the most results and they don't care about your political party by the way they'll give to whomever is sitting in those chairs that has decision making capabilities over the money that they have an interest in lockheed martin is is great at navigating the system that exists between staffers wanting to get pentagon jobs in pentagon employees wanting golden

parachutes when they get out of the pentagon they make a place for them on lucky boards and in their various offices around the country lockheed martin knows how to entice and seduce these people to get exactly what they want and i think the numbers that you have they're just show it and it shows that they know that the money they're spending is effect. i but if i let's say you know you were northrop grumman or that you were boeing would you look at perhaps you know the budgets of some of these contracts to say hey it's not fair would you want to call your competitor out and say that really you're just paying to play or is that not profitable for that you know do they get a little piece of pie that if subcontractor northrop grumman gets that they will not heed martin get something or do they just want the same practice to keep on going just in case they learn how to start winning well i mean the thing about that is that yes in one way they do kind of benefit somewhat when lockheed martin wins because they act as subcontractors on those contracts but the moment they point out this kind of legal corruption that's going on is the moment they also indict

themselves i mean right under lockheed martin list of the most find the most corrupt companies in that misconduct database are boeing northrop grumman general dynamics and companies like that they all work this game they all donate millions and hundreds of millions of dollars of the lifetime of their company to lobbying and campaign contributions because they know they can buy or rent at least politicians and you know the success of their businesses is in large part due to utilizing this model that lockheed martin is perfected so i'm sure they're a little bit jealous that lockheed martin is so good at it but they've built quite a lot of success on it and by the way all three of those companies that i just mentioned they're so good at it that their c.e.o.'s are in the top zero point zero one percent of the richest americans based on their. just more proof right of what everybody already knows meanwhile we can't get any infrastructure projects built but all these weapon systems just keep on getting the funding. from the pentagon from congress a real tragedy thank you so much for joining us tonight eric thank you. are we

taking our last break the evening but when we come back our side friday and on happy hour facebook decides that they care about privacy for once and go but here's latest with a little break on that after the break. it's intentions. really clear to. the two thousand nuclear security summit. on archie. and. in stores here have become more going global and no.

longer. take your stand. to. make your statement. to the world. my little street. street bridge. to tonight's fireside fridays with your host cops. this week of the one story take the country by storm the tragic and fatal shooting of trayvon martin a seventeen year old boy in sanford florida was simply holding skittles and iced tea while he was walking down the street on how can we forget also wearing

a hoodie or was and billions so far there's just no way to justify the actions of george zimmerman the killer here and the line of reasoning but very few continue to deny that trayvon is crying if you want to call that was walking all being black i was in marches in florida and new york and other cities take place across the country this week calling for justice for trayvon. the problem justices said that they're going to look into this case and even the president weighed in today telling reporters that if he had a son he would look like trayvon doesn't important because aside from a few right wingers out there nobody is scared of calling this a story where race played a role who want to confront racism we have to be able to talk about it openly as a society and not to shy away but the sad thing is that all the stories that capture the nation's attention like trayvon are few and far between occurrences like this issues like this are not trayvon cases the entire combination of the various levels and types of injustice that we see but the truth is that it's

everywhere racism plays a role in our criminal justice system throughout the entire country just look at the makeup of prison populations look at the supreme court case we mentioned this week questioning whether juveniles should be given sentences of life in prison without parole in cases of harms like black youth are ten times more likely to be given those sentences and their white counterparts plays a role in our schools look at the statistics that we spoke about last week that showed that punishment is handed down in a much harsher way for minority students black students are three times more likely to be suspended from school and their white counterparts the death sentence is much more likely to be given to minorities and none of this is meant to take away from trayvon story his case is particularly poignant because he was completely innocent of any wrongdoing while the way the case is being handled by the local authorities and the aftermath just reeks of the injustices in the entire system the way in which he was killed is based on a personal internal racism within the shooter himself but what i'm trying to say

here is that we should take trayvon case we should make sure that becomes a catalyst for change don't have this gruesome reminder that we're not opposed racial society be just another story that the media embraces for a week or two and then forgets i think unfortunately that's what we saw in the case of terri davis' suddenly the death penalty was being judged seen in a public light we saw it. the state of georgia put a man to death who was killed could not be proven without a reasonable doubt and we asked about would bring about change but so far it hasn't let's not trayvon he just let's not let trayvon be just another name another black child space to become famous for all the wrong reasons realize that this goes on everywhere that there are journalists out there highlighting the injustices every day and they all deserve attention because the more that we know the more i hope we can change.

i've got time for how we are enjoying the evening party correspondent christine for south and politicos david guetta needs thanks for joining you guys happy friday happy friday and for some people friday started last night like our own jenny churchill who went to the midnight showing of hunger games with currently a lot of it throughout the country take a look. the hunger games opened tweens teens and most of the valley actually headed out to raise theater at town square to see the film it's based on a series of books by suzanne collins and stars jennifer lawrence just josh hutcherson and liam hemsworth moviegoers were more than pleased with it. so all the tweens and jenny her show went to go see the midnight showing last night i'm just really just jealous because. i wanted to see. what happens with these movies and i guess that there is the same thing with harry potter is that you know

certain charities organizations try to kind of join in and so there's one called the hunger oxfam want to launch a campaign called hunger is not a game to support one of their campaign to make food aid more efficient and lines gates is saying no and they said they're trying to piggyback off their motion picture and causing damage to lionsgate and our marketing efforts i mean it seems to me they're just trying to raise awareness and using this as an opportunity to do so awareness about a subject that's very serious but i thought the letter online that lionsgate wrote oxfam some of these other charities that said please take any mention of hunger is not a game off the web site and threaten to have it removed for copyright purposes if they don't so pretty serious about it so that bottom line you know any publicity is good publicity right and i get very skeptical about some of these controversies juno right going to movie land because it's good for everybody right hunger games isn't more everybody is talking about it and they're trying to so

a movie i mean it would make it makes sense to though if you just think about the story the hunger games it's like why not. take advantage of what let's talk about. newt gingrich first of all the only one we constantly have these polls and whatnot talking about the president's religion. a poll of likely republicans in alabama shows that only fourteen percent believe pres obama is a fellow christian and mississippi the figure is twelve percent and the majority there say a strong majority say he's a muslim. so you wonder why these obama is a muslim rumors don't go away maybe you can thank people like king great. he was asked basically why so many voters continue to mistakenly believe that obama is a muslim and he said you have to ask why they would believe that it's not because they're stupid it's because they watch the kind of things i just described he

basically said it's obama's fault for acting like one is dog whistling. throughout the campaign i mean even the whole the language she uses socialist kenzie it's all foreign you know will never go as far to say you know oh we have a black president but never go that far but it's all this coded language and appeals with a certain amount of voters in the south and you see it because i mean. obama to release his birth certificate a sitting u.s. president people still don't believe it doesn't matter what anybody says they're never going to believe and i thought because he was acting so muslims and so when you and when these debates come up as we've just seen in the past few weeks the past month really of the contraception debate that a part of obama's health care plan that requires businesses employers to pay for things like birth control that is very easy to turn into obama's war on the catholic church obama must be a muslim because he wants to attack the church so you know and it's very easy to spin in that light is this is where why newt gingrich is where is yeah i mean which

is that you know a little fresh actually makes you have a little bit of hope as there is but then with santorum still doing well i have no actually. let's move on but he's looking at this isn't that. as put out and it basically had to get paul. a little unlike some people belvedere always goes down smoothly and the photo disappeared from their facebook page and from their twitter account within an hour of people starting to notice and complain they said we have apologized to her fans. yeah you basically go too far this is where you come up with something you know the brainstorming session and you know what you guys think it's funny but you don't go the next step and go through with it sort of and then someone stops it because you've got to always think about the other perspective with who is real or not actually what they were trying to do is make it look like she was about to get rates because that's what

people are saying i'm going to feel like because he's such a scrawny guy in the picture you know it's just a guy and like he's not doing a great people like say he's smiling and she'll like a really strange look at you know normally i'm not offended really this is what i understand anyway but obviously a bad idea can we put out a full time right there another way for as a look at it again. i mean the girl doesn't look happy grabbing her. you know if she was an arms were around her and a little overcome side the truck just pulled up and she was running and you know stayed back i mean. now she wants. to hear you i mean as much as i don't think she was terrified i just think she looks like she's running but who knows where to belvidere i babble about space and the guys running who are not running away exactly. like that i don't think we are trying to do our next story but just for a little update for our viewers we spoke about the fact that certain employers were

trying to ask people to hand over their face but passwords that's crazy and facebook is actually coming out on the side of the facebook users saying that's not cool and it's also not you know not allowed of course but i mean they should suddenly facebook i was going to give your passwords and your girlfriends and boyfriends well if you give me a call because i'm. sorry i think i'm going to have every week at their for the night show thanks for joining in and make sure that you come back on monday ravin vice president of media matters can be joining us for our monday hangover and in the meantime don't forget to become a fan of below nischelle on facebook to get us on twitter if there's anything you ever miss you can find it all. on a shelf and coming up next is the news. from
