Glenn Beck gets heckled at a Hitchcock film, others say he didn't, he cries...

I heard him talking about this on his radio show. If true, I thought the left embraced diversity and is tolerant of everyone?

Read about this the other day. He is saying he and family were threatened and someone kicked wine onto his wife.

So my assumption is that there is a police report on this, right?

Right?

I mean, GB would surely have called for some assistance on this and filed some kind of report on it, right?

Right?

He has 3 personal security guys with him all the time, why would he need to call for assistance?

I've learned to not believe anything Beck says, especially when he stands to make money from it.

How does he stand to make money from this? Knowing how vicious the left can be, I would not be surprised if true.

While those descriptions are true, have you seen the Hitler comparisons to Bush, the videos of Ann Coulter among others getting pies and other things thrown in their faces or when a conservative goes to many college campuses how they get shouted down and are not even given the chance to speak?

I loved the 'he cries' part. Seriously the man is worse than a woman when it comes to emotional extremes.

Not commenting on the rest of it, but seems like a Beck or a Coulter going to speak on any campus other than maybe Oral Roberts or BYU should expect to get shouted down. In fact, I daresay they are banking on it.

Literally.

why should they expect that? Whatever happened to the free exchange of ideas? Or is liberalism the only acceptable opinion allowed on most college campuses.

They should expect it because they've created a cottage industry of hate by fanning the extermist flames and making outlandish and dangerous accustations. Glenn Beck is an uneducated buffoon who read a few books and preyed on the latent, conspiracy-obsessed hysteria that now seems to be silly in retrospect.

I'm all for the exchange of ideas, but Ann Coulter doesn't exactly exchange. She butts right in and takes over and makes an otherwise normal conversation her own soapbox. She really has a hard time staying quiet for more than 10 seconds anytime I see her on TV or hear her on the radio.

ahh, so in other words, their free speech rights should be squelched, sometimes violently, because you don't want to hear what they have to say.

how enlightened

Nope. When you exercise your free speech rights in a loud and careless and crass way, expect; no, undoubtedly KNOW, that others will respond in kind while exercising their right to free and loud and vehement speech, just like you did.

That's right, when it comes to those on the left, free speech only applies when you agree with them

again, because you disagree with the message, you believe you have the right to react violently when the messenger appears? Even if he or she was the invited guest of your institution?

are you scared that you might find yourself agreeing with a Coulter or Beck if you actually extended them the courtesy of allowing to speak?

seems to me that you are pretty insecure in your ideas if your first reaction is to violently silence anybody who speaks contrary to them.

that's pretty pathetic, but not surprising

While I disagree with everything you say here, let's say that is true. He wasn't at the park to make a speech or political activity. He was there to watch a movie, let the man watch a movie with his family without acting like a bunch of morons.

Many in attendance have stated that he is the one overreacting to the heckling. Which is no surprise to me. He overreacts to most everything, including repeatedly crying on cable TV.

I would never shout down someone in public. I just think those who want to, should be free to do so, even if the shoutee is a self-described disciple with a cadre of bodyguards and the shouters just a bunch of left-leaning, vicious, college students.

By saying he overreacted that means you believe it happened to some degree, why not leave him alone and let him watch the movie.
