http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/jesse-lee-peterson-michael-browns-parents-should-be-shunned-failing-raise-decent-citizenConservative activist and frequent Fox News guest Jesse Lee Peterson said in a Newsmax interview that Michael Brown's parents should be "shunned" because they "failed to raise a decent citizen."
From the article:
Peterson went on to blame Browns parents, who he said should be shunned because they failed to raise a decent citizen:
Also, his parents are hypocrites because, first of all, they didnt raise Michael Brown in the right way. They failed him. They failed to raise a decent citizen. And so theyre partly responsible for the death of Michael Brown as well. And I have to tell you, the way the president, the attorney general, and these so-called civil rights leaders are carrying on is shameful. Michael Browns parents should be shunned, they should be made to feel embarrassed for the way that they raised, that they raised their son.

It is very interesting to sit back and watch these people crawl out into the light. I feel like buying bug spray or something.

(9,350 posts)Sarah and Todd Palin's daughter, Bristol Palin became pregnant at 16, or 17. Also, she showed up at someone's party drunk and got into a confrontation with the party host. George and Laura Bush's daughters were arrested on a number of occasions for being drunk in public, trying to use fake IDs, and driving while drunk.
Should Rudy Guiliani be shunned since his daughter was arrested for shoplifting? Should Jeb Bush be shunned since his son, George P. bush, when he(George P. Bush) was younger crashed his vehicle into his girlfriend's house and then entered the house and confronted her father? If things had been different George P. Bush could have been shot by the home owner. Currently, George P. Bush is waiting to be sworn in as an elected official in Texas. Jeb Bush also has a daughter who was arrested on drug charges. Jeb Bush is considering a run for President. I do not recall any Republican saying he should not run for President because of the mistakes his children have made.
If the country, or the world started shunning the parents of every person that does something wrong a large number of people would have to be shunned. A number of those parents would be Republican parents who have kids who have made both minor and major mistakes.
