Talk show host Michael Reagan calls for murder of anti-war activist

Transcript of Reagan’s statements:

San Diego, CA) Radio talk show host Michael Reagan is calling for the murder of political activist, Mark Dice, after hearing that Dice is mailing letters and DVDs to troops in Iraq. Reagan wants to pay for the bullets

“Excuse me folks, I’m going to say this. We ought to find the people who are doing this, take them out and shoot them. Really. You take them out, they are traitors to this country, and shoot them. You have a problem with that? Deal with it. You shoot them. You call them traitors, that’s what they are, and you shoot them dead. I’ll pay for the bullets.”

Reagan adds, “How about you take Mark Dice out and put him in the middle of a firing range. Tie him to a post, don’t blindfold him, let it rip and have some fun with Mark Dice.”

Dice is demanding that Reagan be fired immediately. “Calling for the murder of someone because you disagree with their political stance is absolutely unacceptable, un American, and possibly illegal,” says Dice.

Dice has filed a report with the FBI and is considering legal action against Reagan.

Dice’s organization, The Resistance, has launched a campaign to send documentary films and declassified documents to U.S. troops who are stationed in Iraq to inform them that the 9/11 attacks were aided by elements within the U.S. government.

2. Michael Reagan is a man with very
average intellect. He got a job in radio only because he was a Reagan. I felt bad when I read that Nancy didn't like him and that his father ignored him, but that doesn't excuse the fact that he is a jackass. He should be fired and then prosecute for solicitation of murder.

3. that's well over the line of protected speech
if nothing else, the "i'll pay for the bullets" line seals it. he's actively, specifically, and with very real malice and ill intent, calling for the murder of an american citizen. unlike many other seemingly similar cases, including a recent one that made the news, this one is in fact a serious crime.

12. Nah, that's Ron Jr.
I get the impression he is actually something of a liberal (by Reagan standards, anyway).

16. No, Mike Reagan is an adopted son of the former president.
The younger son whose name I can't recall now is the one who was a ballet dancer. He's a Democrat...at least he was when I heard him on television...Oh, I just remembered his name...Ron Reagan...just like his father!

35. NO! Ron Reagan, Jr., is a good man and a good progressive.
Michael Reagan is the adopted son who was never quite loved.

4. Ronald Reagan is doing cartwheels in his grave right now
The man was no saint by any means, but I think he would have had some serious objection to his son making terrorist threats on the public airwaves.

18. I disagree...
I think Ronnie was too far in the throes of dementia and genuinely didn't know WTF was going on.

Still no excuse, worse than knowing really, but Poppy Bush did all that Iran Contra stuff, IMO.

21. You might be right. But he did start the Trickle Down BS
Which anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows means "Eat the Poor!"

He's responsible for a GREAT DEAL of suffering and the deaths of American Citizens.

22. Supply siders ran his economic policy...
His puppet handlers did it really, but Reagan was all cool with that stuff back when he was lucid, so the result woulda been the same if he had known where he was and didn't take several naps a day.

20. Did Reagan really know what was going on with anything?
Even before the Alzheimers kicked in, it's obvious that Poppy Bush was running the show. Of Reagan's original 1981 cabinet, everyone was a Bush Crime Family loyalist, with the exception of Don Regan and Ed Meese, who followed JellyBeanBrain from California.

23. He was a figurehead, more or less...
But that doesn't change what a vile person he truly was in his heart when he still had his faculties.

6. Isn't illegal to put out a murder contract on someone?
:eyes:

I can hear the defense now: "He only offered to pay for the bullets... and he's RONALD REAGAN'S SON!1!"

11. Self anointed Patriot
calling a political activist he disagrees with a traitor to this country and calling for his MURDER. What patriotic endeavors might I ask has Michael Reagan engaged in to demonstrate his patriotism and devotion to country ??? Aside from running his mouth and giving his total support to war criminals what qualifies Mr Reagan to judge anyones patriotism???

14. These two deserve each other
Mark Dice
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Mark Dice, also known as John Conner (both may be pseudonyms—verification by a reliable source is lacking), is an author and culture jammer based in San Diego, California.

Dice/Conner either founded or took over (sources differ) an organization,<1> variously called The Resistance for Christ, The Christian Resistance or The Resistance, which professes conspiratorial beliefs about the illuminati, freemasons, Skull and Bones, Bohemian Grove, the 9/11 attacks and satanism, and which has been reported to "flood the airwaves of call-in radio and television shows"<2> to promote them.

He has called for the Georgia Guidestones to be removed from public property,<2><3> protested a Jessica Simpson music video,<1> called for a boycott of the VeriChip,<1><4> called for Duke University to change the name of its sports team (the Blue Devils),<5> called for rapper 50 Cent to stop wearing a cross,<6> and claimed that Tom Cruise worships satan.<7>

He recently launched a boycott against Starbucks, calling the company,"Slutbucks" after featuring a logo of a topless mermaid type figure. <1> <2> He also has started a campaign in which he send letters and other material supporting the theory that "9/11 was an inside job" to soldiers stationed in Iraq, the campaign was covered by Fox News who also interviewed Dice. <3>

He markets an assortment of products on a website which, according to The Inquirer's Nick Farrell,<1> is "full of tin foil hat wearing paranoia" that is "carried off in an amusing way."

28. Go to it Michael. Got the guts to do it in front of cops and then get hauled off to jail?
Why only pay for the bullets? Don't you have the guts to do it yourself? And then pay the price of murdering someone afterward, you crazy asshole?
