O’Reilly Should Be Worried

It would be stretching credulity to believe that Al Qaeda would take targeting suggestions from O’Reilly. What I would be worried about if I were O’Reilly is that some nutcase like Tim McVeigh might take his suggestion on Coit Tower.

Words so matter and when someone takes to the air waves with the suggestion that someone should teach San Francisco a lesson because an election did go the way they thought it should, well that’s sort of yelling “fire” in the movie theater.

1. sorry but that's wishful thinking
he would weasel out of it and blame it on the liberal left for doing it to make him look bad

and unfortunately, too many people would probably believe him

4. The right wing nuts need him and his lunatic fringe audience! As long
as they are in power, anything that happens, won't be their fault! They've already laid the ground work for that.

6. Terrifying
And I mean that quite literally. O'Reilly is a deeply ignorant man. I only hope there isn't some apocalyptic militia drone waiting for his chance to 'prove' what he believes.

:scared:

:thumbsdown:

7. It's also the very definition of terrorism.

9. Thanks for saying that. Bill O' Reilly HAS committed an act of terrorism
And probably treason as well.

8. Isn't inciting violence still a crime?
This pretty much borders on it. Not to mention the violence from San Franciscans if he EVER shows up there.

10. O'Reilly committed act of terrorism, treason too
it would seem. Isn't that illegal as all hell? This is far worse than yelling "fire" in a theater.

11. Sort of akin (though somehow even WORSE, if that's possible) to...
* telling the insurgents to "bring it on".

Gee, thanks for the macho taunt, encouraging Iraqis to kill our Military people. Thanks very much.

13. And I bet he isn't worried at all.
As others said, even if it happened, he'd never in a million years take responsibility for it.

14. Wingnuts would have "taught San Fran a lesson" long ago anyway
I can't imagine this pushing anyone over the edge.
