Radio host on RNC protesters: 'Mow 'em down, baby!'

[Nitrogenica]

The Twin Cities' newest conservative talk show host has an idea for managing the thousands of protesters coming to the Republican National Convention in St. Paul in September: machine guns.

Chris Baker, formerly a talk radio host in Houston, took over the morning spot on KTLK in early March. On Friday, he took issue with the debate among Minneapolis law enforcement personnel as to whether police should limit the use of Tasers and pepper spray on protesters in Minneapolis (link to audio file). Baker's suggestion is violent suppression of what he calls "stinky protesters" that are part of "an industry funded by billionaires and communist organizations (and) they are well-coordinated and incredibly dangerous."

Baker continued: "So we've been talking about police protection during the upcoming convention when all those stinky protesters are coming. There seems to be a big debate over whether or not police officers will be able to wear helmets, carry shields, use pepper spray and Tasers on this crowd. You know, I'll tell you what works on a crowd like this -- a machine gun, that always works very well."

Baker's co-host, "Jordan," agreed: "Mow 'em down, baby!" he added.

"You must have order, you cannot have a civilized society without order and if that means cracking a few skulls, so be it," said Baker. "A good ole boy network is what you need and hand out some ax handles."

Should we worry about our safety then, because Republicans who we disagree with want to kill us?

This is terrorism.

Look at the content of his web page, pretty self explanitory.

10. It's a classic case of projection.

"an industry funded by billionaires and communist organizations (and) they are well-coordinated and incredibly dangerous."

Cross out 'communists' and put in 'corporatists' and you've nailed the Republican activist base.

13. That sounds about right. And it sounds like this windbag doesn't know what communism is. nt

[Kitty Herder]

12. That's what I was thinking. Odd combination. nt

15. I think that's a projection from Animal Farm

Some are pigs (the "Communists"), and some are people (money grubbers), but if you're one of the animals looking in from the outside, you can't tell them apart.

Or, maybe it has something to do with a certain Big Box Store that is raking in billions with the help of an ostensibly Communist regime :shrug:

14. Keep Pushing, Mr. Baker

One of these days, if there is any moxie left in this country, "The Rabble" are going to push back.

And being within grasping distance of this push, would be, hmmmm, how did the Knight in Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade put it?.....

"He chose.....Poorly."

Keep pushing Mr. Baker......Keep Pushing.
