In the clip embedded below from Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell, Bell sent a personal message to freshman Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX): Stop talking.
He began by referring to Wednesdays congressional testimony by Sybrina Fulton, mother of slain teenager Trayvon Martin. After Fulton explained that the Stand Your Ground law is a dangerous law that allows people of color to disproportionately be murdered by white defendants, Cruz addressed her.
None of us in this hearing room were there that night, said Cruz, and we know that at the end of that confrontation, the teenager was dead.
It wasnt the teenager, said Bell. His name was Trayvon Martin and youre talking directly to his mother, so have some goddamn respect, you blobfish-faced fool!
