BecKKK is staring to reap what he's been sowing.

1. This man should be barred from

civilization.

He is definitely a leader of our up and coming domestic terrorists.



Edited to add the missing 's'.

There ought to be a law against inciting people to violence. Oh, wait, there is.

9. Where's the crap that is Beck?

That kitty litter is too clean to represent Beck. Come to think of it, I wouldn't association my little kitties' poop with Beck, their POOP is too clean compared to him.

8. An Asheville radio host was (temporarily) taken off air after questioning Glenn Beck's sanity

Beck has gained a burgeoning national conservative following for political commentary blasting liberals, the Barack Obama administration and what he deemed government excesses.

The host berated critics for flooding the station with e-mails and calls, saying they should be concerned with more important issues. Some fans though said it was wrong for the station to punish the host who is a “valuable community resource.”

“I think it's stupid. A radio host needs to be able to give his opinions … and it will hurt the show and hurt the community because he provides a good informational service,” one fan said.

12. ONLY IN AMURIKKKA!

not. Think Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Germany... Too many Amis feel pride in their ignorance and historical amnesia whilst engaging in combat with "THEM."

[Stumbler]

13. I cannot watch Beck, and can barely stand the snippets & parodies I see

But at the same time, from what I've seen, I have to ask: When does this begin to qualify as today's "two-minute-hate" from Orwell's 1984? Having read it only once, I may be confused in my analogy, but from what I can tell, Glen Beck is the RW's version of complete, absolute, all-absorbing hatred of anything that doesn't contort to form their company-line...

And after the death threats and cut gas lines of Democratic Reps, when will this be stopped??

16. Where is the FCC in all of this.....

Some of these folks are clearly inciting hate speech. It is not entertainment (their fig leaf of choice). Those guilty of inciting should be personally fined and lose their license. Fox, as an accomplice should be put on notice that they will lose their public license and also fined.

No, this is not free speech, this is yelling fire in a crowded movie theater. This rhetoric is rabble rousing.


BTW, I have served in the military and there is nothing I hold more sacred than the Constitution, the DOI, but the dearest to my heart is the BOR. I was carefully looking at those faces in the video. Most are too young to have been drafted. My guess is they would be the first to soil their pants when the guns went off. Yes, it is easy to be brave against women, children, the sick and elderly, and even these terrorist ghosts. But if you are so tough, why are you shitting in your pants because some fool set his crotch on fire, why can't you fly with out more than 3 oz of fluid in a bottle. Do you really feel safer strip searching grannies and crying babies taken from their mothers. I am a woman but I have bigger balls than you cowardly dirt bags.

17. Openly advocating violent insurection against the government is a whole new

level of stupidity. Even FAUX should be worried about Beck.
