Glenn Beck defends Bernie, says #BlackLivesMatter made terrorist threats against him

[Cali_Democrat]

Conservative media appears to be rallying against #BlackLivesMatter.

No surprise there. Cons hate black people more than anything.

------


Glenn Beck was both shocked and amused by the Black Lives Matter protesters who hijacked a Bernie Sanders rally to demand their voices be heard.

Beck was first amazed by the lack of security around a sitting senator and presidential candidate that allowed two random people to just get up on stage right next to him.

They kept shouting to Sanders that they would shut down the event if they didn’t get a chance to speak, which Beck deemed a “terroristic threat.”

He and his co-hosts laughed after hearing one of the protesters shout “We are reasonable!” leading to co-host Pat Gray mock-shrieking, “I’m gonna show you how reasonable I am by stabbing you in the face!”

They continued to listen and Beck said the shouting couldn’t have possibly been real, it still had to be “a cartoon Pat scream.”

10. We have one of the protesters

Indicating that the GOP should have groomed her early, engaging in a way that breeds confontation, butthurt, and miscommunication, then a right wing mouthpiece commenting that oh..yes indeed they're dangerous and doesn't that just line up with anyone in the left thst objects to their tactics.
dont tell me you don't see the triangulation and strategy at play there, whether she was a provacature or earnest or both.

[cali]

12. she's also involved with a Farrakhan group and he is virulently antisemitic

[Behind the Aegis]

27. Which one is that?

I saw some signs that might indicate something of that sort, but saw nothing definite. (If it is a hate site, you can PM directly.)

[cali]

29. here's the thread

30. I just stumbled across it.

I was coming back to let you know I found it. Thanks, though!

[cali]

13. so? has zip to do with Bernie.

[Cali_Democrat]

21. I'm just posting about the media reaction to what happened in Seattle.

Don't like it?

Too bad.

[cali]

25. hahaha. everyone sees who you are and what you're doing

It's so lame.

[Cali_Democrat]

28. When Glenn Beck is defending your position, something has gone terribly wrong

Sorry.

At least Bernie is reaching out to #BLM...his supporters? Not so much.

[Fawke Em]

32. I'm a supporter and they follow me on Twitter.

So does Blacks for Bernie.

And, I'm white.

So much for the harebrained theory that we're not reaching out to them and other groups helping PoC.

[Cali_Democrat]

35. Did you read the venom here which was directed at #BLM yesterday?

[cali]

45. the anger was directed at those who assaulted Bernie. most of us are delighted

that he's breaching out to blm

[cali]

33. lol Your claims grow ever more ridiculous and desperate, but hey

you want to continue embarrassing yourself, have at it. It's rather entertaining.

[ibegurpard]

34. OK so now we're back to horrible supporters

The rotation is getting quicker. You're going to need new material soon.

[arcane1]

38. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who sees through this nonsense

[cali]

41. everyone posting in this thread sees through it

[arcane1]

44. Indeed

Even the OP knows it's nonsense.

I miss having disagreements that were sincere

[Marr]

57. There it is. I really thought you'd coyly pretend that wasn't your angle for a little longer.

What a weak, deceitful attack.

[dgibby]

49. Actually, it's your tactics I don't like.

But then, I don't like anyone who admires people who are in cahoots with anti-semites. Now I guess I can't even consider voting for Hillary if she gets the nomination since some of her supporters are enamored with people who hate Jews. You're not doing her any favors, and it's going to cost her votes. See how that works?

it would have been in the form a question.

3. Glenn Beck can fuck off

Bernie doesn't need his help

[LongTomH]

6. +1000 Glenn Beck can Fuck Off and Die!

[jberryhill]

31. Can he take a break in there to eat shit?

[whatchamacallit]

4. POSOP

[notadmblnd]

7. Doesn't Glenn Beck have some gold to weigh or something?

his opinion isn't needed here.

[cyberswede]

8. Who gives a shit what Beck says? nt

[think]

9. While the city Berns you still yearn. Please come join the party!

[virtualobserver]

11. I couldn't be more thrilled that Bernie invited BLM to open his rally in LA

so Bernie does not agree with Beck.

[99th_Monkey]

15. +100

Was it BLM or Symone Sanders?

They are not the same. Symone is a black activists who's Bernie's new press secretary.

She's awesome, and gave a great opening mini-speech introducing Bernie in Portland last night.

[arcane1]

16. And he kicked ass on EVERY topic tonight in LA, and every witness knew it! This smear is dead now.

[arcane1]

14. Your desperation is showing, and it's worse than we thought.

[restorefreedom]

37. well said. nt

[Uncle Joe]

18. That's the difference between Bernie Sanders and Glenn Beck

Beck believes they're "terrorists" and Bernie believes they're angry and disenfranchised Americans.

Thanks for the thread, Cali_Democrat.

[99th_Monkey]

19. Trolling extreme RW sites are we? .. for any shred of "dirt" that might be there?

to smear Sanders with, of course. tisk-tisk

[Cali_Democrat]

23. Mediaite is not an extreme right wing site

It's an aggregator which collects video clips and soundbites from various sources....both liberal and conservative...you will find clips from MSNBC, Fox News, CNN etc. Last week they had a bunch of clips from Ed Schultz.

In fact, DUers have been posting links to that website for quite some time. One prominent DUer directed me to that site.

Nice try though.

[99th_Monkey]

36. You cite Glen Beck to trash Sanders

and your 'defending" it because you feel the website is not really
extreme RW. Got it.

[arcane1]

40. This must be "Plan B" for when the "Bernie is racist" crap eventually failed n/t

[840high]

20. You don't fool me.

[cali]

26. pretty obvious no one is fooled.

[arcane1]

43. It's very encouraging that, with 15 months to go, they're already trying to tie him to Glenn Beck!

I mean, where can they possibly go from here? Saying Charles Manson endorses single-payer healthcare?

[MrMickeysMom]

22. Horse shit

Nice try…

You really care about Glenn Beck, don't you.

[gwheezie]

24. I thought Beck was dead

Didn't he threaten to go off to die from his mysterious illness?

[Iliyah]

39. Beck changed his mind.

[ibegurpard]

42. he evolved...

[blackspade]

61. From pond scum to pond slime.

[QC]

46. Has anybody seen LoZoccolo around lately? n/t

[ibegurpard]

48. Oh jesus no...

[whatchamacallit]

51. !

[MoveIt]

47. Whatever fucking sticks eh?

[Adrahil]

50. Not a helpful thread, IMO. nt

[Skwmom]

52. Let's get that race war going. Who cares if it causes more lives as long as it serves the political

purpose or the Democratic and Republican Corporatists. Great job.

[HooptieWagon]

53. Must be another bad news for Clinton day.

Deflect! Deflect! Smear! Smear!

[PowerToThePeople]

54. a day that ends in "y"

The people are speaking, they want to be represented and do not want another "let them eat cake" POTUS.

[restorefreedom]

55. just because beck is a racist twit

does not make what the disruptors did to bernie ok.

it also does not align bernie with beck or anyone spouting vile hatred.

but A for effort and creativity!

[Romulox]

58. This just in: Kim Jong Il wears PANTS SUITS! Draw your own conclusions, people. nt

[blackspade]

59. Who gives a fuck about Glenn Beck?

Especially here at DU?

Nothing he says is based on facts.

[Marr]

60. This is what so many people don't like about Hillary supporters, just fyi.

You're not as clever as you seem to think you are, and you are not doing your candidate any favors.
