Who says something like this?!
Early Sunday morning marked another tragic event in our country as a man by the name of Omar Mateen opened fire on a gay night club in Orlando, Florida killing 50 — including himself — as well as injuring 53 more.
While we’ve received quite a few updates and details about the incident — including a possible connection to ISIS — it seems the one thing we could REALLY do without is Geraldo Rivera and the rest of the peanut gallery at Fox and Friends‘ commentary.

On Monday morning, Geraldo appeared on Fox News to cover the terrible incident that occurred over the weekend.
We’ve already heard some awful responses, like Donald Trump‘s asinine comments about wanting to use more bombs and limit Muslims in our country, but the controversial reporter made sure to cover all the offensive bases Trump missed by suggesting the victims could have done more to protect themselves!
Much like Trump, the Dancing With The Stars alum threw some shade Barack Obama‘s way before saying:
“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, you have two choices. You stay and die, or you fight. For God’s sakes, fight back. Fight back.”
UGH.
Don’t be a Mark Wahlberg and talk about what YOU would have done in the situation. The truth is, you have no idea what you would do until faced with it — and what you should be doing is thanking goodness for that.
Ch-ch-check out the Fox News interview (below) to hear Geraldo’s comments around the 3:45 mark and let us know what you think of his comments!
