Sharpton actually DID make incendiary comments, which led to a riot. And yet from some reason he's still put up on a pedestal as some great civil rights leader.

Yeah, that's why I used him in the example. I put it in hypothetical form in case LG wanted to refute that.

pooch is advocating violent suppression of the free speech rights of people like Beck and Coulter

No he's not. He's saying that if you talk s**t, chances are someone will talk s**t back. If you'd read the article, his main gripe was that someone behind him kicked wine onto his wife. The person responsible came forward and explained, with witnesses, that the incident was an accident and had apologized profusely. Other witnesses stated the heckling was no different from what most any celeb. would receive in NYC. "Viloent suppression of the free speech rights". Gimme a break. Lay off the hyperbole.

What incendiary claims has he made? I've seen his tv show and heard his radio broadcast a few times and have never heard him say anything that made me say, "Wow, that guy is extreme". The way he presents topics is goofy and stupid, but I've never known him to be overly controversial.

Just wow.

AHHH, the conservative guy/gal is rich and successful now so he is in it only for money, that capitalistic pig, argument. seen this one before. Where and how did you "learn" this. Can you prove that lie with some facts???? ill be waiting.
Fact is Becks' show is very factual and informative. some mistakes have been made, but corrected quickly. examples, Obama is a racist comment and Van Jones is a Felon, both were retracted and apologized for.
I have, on several occasions, watched Beck and then watch Jon Stewart take that same episode(s) , edit it and change Becks message or take him out of context , because Beck uses alot of sarcasm and paint him as a liar or nut. the EXACT same thing Stewart cried about on his show about the wallace interview. I watch both shows by the way so i do know what both do. Check Becks record why don't you?, not biased medias account of it if you are actually interested in truth.actually nearly every episode Beck challanges the audience not to trust him but do your own homework and decide for yourself. what a deceptive greedy liar, right?...lol.
The fact is you can completely disagree with Becks conclusions, which i do sometimes, but its hard to argue facts presented when he quotes what other people say, shows their videos and references their books in their own words and then challenges the audience to study the material themselves and come to their own conclusion. But hey if you want to blindly believe what your told, as they say ignorance is bliss. so enjoy.

For the record, i Know what both say and do, and many others in the political realm because, pathetically enough i watch many of the shows daily, so Do Not waste your time trying to piss down my back and tell me its raining . i have seen enough to know what goes on.

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?

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.

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

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.

As usual the same bunch hurling accusations and not a fact one to be found. How do feel at all justified in any arguemnt without 1 shred of legitimate proof?

He is a fan of a guy that is a lightning rod for criticism and sneering, but with his detractors having very little tangible proof that he is the monster they claim he is. What is so wrong with being a fan of a TV and Radio personality like that?

With that said and my thought through the whole thread is this: why in the world does he choose to live where he lives then? I mean the guy is definitely right of center... and he lives in one of the most progressive areas in the country. I mean I have heard him talk about driving through Greenwich Villiage. That's like a card carrying communist from a banana republic with this Che T shirt on going through Macon GA and not expecting any stares.

Home is where the heart is, not necessarily where like minded people are. I've got a buddy that is as staunch a Conservative as you will find that lives in Boulder Colorado. He would rather die than have to live anywhere else.

Oh, i thought this was still a free America? i guess not. where should he move to then, i wouldn't want to offend anyone with a different viewpoint. And i thought progressives were all about tolerance and open-mindedness.

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.

Whoa, blacked out for a second, thought we had Glen himself typing on the board.

Listen, I think it's as stupid as the next guy for him to be heckled when he's out in public with his family. But it comes with the territory of being high profile. Time to start dealing with reality. If he goes on tv and radio every day and has polarizing takes on everything, he's going to ruffle feathers. People should save the rude stuff for Beck's air time, but it's just not gonna happen that way.

That's the price you pay. If you want to be a pro football player, guess what? You don't get to go to nightclubs anymore. If you want to be a high profile actor, guess what? People will be taking your picture everywhere you go. It may not be right, but it's how it is.

Yeah, but how come Al Franken doesn't get pied? How come Chris Matthews doesn't get heckled? Keith Olberman? Rachel Madow? How come it's just the conservative talking heads? Does it only come with territory if you are conservative? I mean you want incendiary comments, Madow writes off supporters of nullification as "racists" and ends the discussion right there. Never mind that nullification was used to combat slavery. Never mind that nullification has never been used to support a racist agenda. So when I say I support nullification people look at me like I'm a crazy racist because they buy her myopic view. I'm not gonna pie her, though.

BTW, I don't like Beck. He's a fear-monger when it comes to Islam.

BTW, I went to college in one of the most conservative places in America. Utah County hosts BYU and UVU and between them there are about 50,000 college students. Mostly conservative. 2 stories:

A few years ago Sean Hannity was invited to speak at UVU. People freaked out and said it wasn't academic honesty and complained about everyone being uber-conservative. The school pandered to them and invited Michael Moore to speak as well a few weeks later. The lefties still heckled Hannity.

Dick Cheney was invited to speak at BYU at graduation and there were huge protests. They cited corruption with Haliburton and claimed that BYU would never have a liberal speak at graduation. Truth be told the corrupt Harry Reid had spoken at the previous Law School graduation. Nobody protested him.

Even on conservative college campuses.

Well, I think for myself, and that's quite enough for me. I don't need sponsor-hungry loons to subscribe me to an ideology.
