‘You’re Going to Have to Shoot Them in the Head,’ Beck Said of Democratic Leaders

[tekisui]

Source: The Raw Story

Discussing Democratic leaders during a June broadcast for the Republican Fox News Channel, conspiracy host Glenn Beck told his followers they would have to "shoot them in the head" in order to bring an end to an alleged "communist" agenda.

"They believe in communism," he said. "They believe and have called for a revolution. You're going to have to shoot them in the head. But warning, they may shoot you."

A transcript of Beck's show was still available on the Fox News website. (Screenshot.)

In the very next breath, he mentioned then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), claiming her "George Washington" was "Karl Marx."

1. Beck should be fired (a long time ago)

That sort of rhetoric should not be tolerated.

2. When will he be arrested? nt

3. Sedition in war time.

Why this son of a bitch isn't being held as an enemy combatant boggle my mind. Yet, we have Obama presiding over the FBI infiltrating peace movements!

6. BS, you're clearly unfamiliar with Salvia's effects. Check youtube videos.

Just one example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmPfj_4uqHQ

It just makes them act really stupid, like being unable to even speak, and wears off in about 5 minutes.

5. Wow!

I was unaware that Beck was giving instructions to listeners on how to shoot Democrats. The bigger outrage is that he still has a job at Fox News.

7. Let's have a thread a day on this until everyone knows about it.

8. Whatever became of

That girl Glenn Beck was rumored to have raped, murdered, and ate back in 1990?
