Glenn Beck to Bring Soccer Balls, Hot Meals to Illegals: 'We Must Open Our Hearts'
breitbart.com ^ | 7/8/14 | Tony Lee

Glenn Beck said bringing soccer balls, teddy bears, and hot meals to illegal immigrants who have been detained along the U.S.-Mexico border will be the most right thing he has ever done.

On July 19, Beck will travel to McAllen, Texas, because he believes Americans must "open our hearts" to the illegal immigrant children who have been unlawfully entering the country.

"I’ve never taken a position more deadly to my career than this – and I have never, ever taken a position that is more right than this," Beck claimed, according to The Blaze.

Beck said helping illegal immigrant children, most of whom have fled Central American nations, was more "right" to him than even calling out radical Islam.

“We’re going to fill some tractor-trailers with food, with water,” Beck said. “The churches have asked us if we could bring teddy bears and soccer balls, so we’ve loaded up a whole tractor-trailer of nothing but teddy bears and soccer balls. And then I’m going to go serve breakfast and lunch, and I’m going to help unload these trucks, hot meals for 3,000. That’s what we’re doing.”

Some illegal immigrants have been found to have contagious diseases and dangerous gang affiliations, but Beck also emphasized that the United States should be accessible to "all those fleeing poverty and violence."

I used to like him but it’s like he has gone off the deep end a few years back. It seems someone brought in the other two guys to laugh when he starts getiing nutty. And they laugh a LOT.

Beck really lost me a couple weeks ago when he urged Conservatives to lay down & stop fighting all so we can find common ground with lefties.

I like Glenn but when he goes off the deep end its batcrap crazy what he wants the Right to sacrifice.

First, he’ll find out that these “kids” are not babes-in-arms.
Then, he’ll find out that many of them have been shifting for themselves on the street since a very young age.
Many others are paid “mules” to lend credibility to the adult that accompanies them.

The life they’ve known does not involve many kindnesses. If Beck wants to be kind to these unfortunates, he should put all his effort into taking them in. The government of the U.S. doesn’t care about them, and a soccer ball isn’t going to end their dilemma. If Glenn can’t take them in and feed and clothe them (and he could, you see,) then he is no better than Obama, using them as political cannon fodder. A bus ride to another town, or a teddy bear are the only choices for these people? Really not seeing a plus for anyone but Beck.

I have no problem with providing them with hot food, clean water, and basic medical attention as we figure out how to safely deport them back to their families.

It all makes me sick to my stomach that Obama has exploited these innocent children this way but it also makes me sick to my stomach to see innocent children exploited and suffering.

Simultaneously, we need to put together a clear case implicating Obama, the community organizer, as the organizer of this fiasco and add it to his list of impeachable offenses. and then we need to impeach him. This is beyond the pale.

Him and Boner need to have a good cry together. Cowboy up Glenn. Help us get these illegal aliens back where they belong, then go down and help them.

His is a cult for well fed church ladies, he farms them for money and they get to feel good about themselves, which is catnip for human females.

Beck tends to be Obamaesque in that he manipulates each situation around himself. It’s always about Glenn.

Nothing wrong with serving the kids a hot meal and providing toys. My concern would be letting the parents stay here.

I agree with everyone else, Beck is screwy.

” but Beck also emphasized that the United States should be accessible to ‘all those fleeing poverty and violence.’”

Like Detroit and Chicago?

I tried very hard to like him, but just couldn't. . . .

Did you bother to listen to the entire monologue? He has a larger point about Honduras and how the Obama administration was the only government in the whole world who supported the sham election that sent Honduras into the chaos it is in now. In reality, these people are refugees of our (US Government)own making.

He is not proposing making them legal immigrants, he is just facing the facts that our government created this mess years ago and he is only looking at a humanitarian band-aid while he tries to make the focus on our corrupt government causing all of this.

He makes the point so ever clear that border enforcement is only a first step, but I believe he makes a great point in that our government caused it all to happen. So if you know that to fix any problem, you have to go after the cause first, what is your immediate solution that this lawless government would be willing to accept?

Obama won’t enforce anything and then all of these people are essentially told to come here by Obama and nobody is willing to do anything about him? We are not a dispassionate people, we can reasonably at least feed them and give them shelter in so many ways but the only way he desires is to jamb it down out throats while he exacerbates the problem that created the whole mess in the first place.

The whole friggin thing stinks to high heavens, blame the fargin idiots who voted for this Maggot Farmer and get right in their faces with it. They and the media are the responsible agents, not someone pointing out the larger picture of what caused it and is only recognizing the fact that they were caught in the middle.

It won’t be easy but We The People can fix this and the original reasons why and then these people can be sent back home to at least some sort of security that does not exist now. Honduras is our future unless somebody stops the Ruling Class of both Parties.

He’s trumpeting his good works in the marketplace, to be seen of men. So yeah, I guess that’s biblical.

He has his reward...
