Pat Robertson Defends George Zimmerman’s Decision To Follow Trayvon Martin (VIDEO)

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Conservative televangelist Pat Robertson defended George Zimmerman in Monday’s broadcast of the Christian Broadcasting Network’s “The 700 Club.”

Responding to co-host Terry Meeuwsen‘s point that Zimmerman was following 17-year-old Trayvon Martin when a 911 dispatcher asked him not to, Robertson implied that recent incidents in the area committed by hooded criminals justified his decision to do so.

“There had been some crime in the area, and the criminals were wearing these hoods, and so, it’s one of those things,” Robertson said.

Is The War On Drugs Nearing An End?

By The Huffington Post News Editors

NEW YORK — For four decades, libertarians, civil rights activists and drug treatment experts have stood outside of the political mainstream in arguing that the war on drugs was sending too many people to prison, wasting too much money, wrenching apart too many families — and all for little or no public benefit.

They were always in the minority. But on Thursday, a sign of a new reality emerged: for the first time in four decades of polling, the Pew Research Center found that more than half of Americans support legalizing marijuana.

That finding is the result of decades of slow demographic changes and cultural evolution that now appears, much like attitudes around marriage equality, to be accelerating. More and more people, including Pat Robertson and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), are rejecting the tough-on-crime rhetoric so long directed toward drug use.

Pat Robertson: 'Awful-looking women' to blame for marital problems (VIDEO)

Got marriage problems? Blame your “awful-looking” wife, Pat Robertson says.

The Christian televangelist is taking heat over comments he recently made on his “700 Club” show in response to a 17-year-old who wrote to “Maxim” magazine about how his father never pays attention to his mother, Slate reported.

“I'm 17 years old and I’ve noticed that there has been a change in my father’s behavior,” he wrote. “He spends too much time at the computer playing a war game. I’ve noticed how alone my mom feels. I just want my father to spend more time with my mom. What should I do? How can I talk to my father? I feel shame for him. Please help.”

According to AlterNet, Robertson initially suggests the boy try to get his parents out of the house on some kind of romantic getaway.

Then comes the women-bashing.

Robertson continues, “You know, it may be your mom isn’t as sweet as you think she is; she may be kind of hard-nosed. And so, you say, it’s my father, he’s not paying attention to mom, but you know mom …” he trails off, chuckling.

He then goes on to say “awful-looking women” can be blamed for other marital problems, The Huffington Post reported.

“A woman came to a preacher that I know, and she was awful looking. I mean, her hair was all torn up and she was overweight and looked terrible, clothes bad and everything,” Robertson said. “And she said, 'Oh, Reverend, what can I do? My husband has started to drink.' And the preacher looked at her and said, 'Madam, if I was married to you I'd start to drink too.'”

Robertson has been married to his wife, Adelia, since 1954.
