[Milwaukee]Denouncing Slurs With More Slurs: The SILENCE BELLING MOVEMENT
News Radio 620 WTMJ | 11/10/04 | Charles Sykes

Posted on 11/10/2004 9:24:07 AM PST by BigJohn44

Milaukee radio talk show host Charles Sykes updated listeners this morning on the organized attacks from the left to silence Mark Belling, a Milwaukee conservative talk radio host and competitor of Sykes.

Belling has been suspended for the last two days from doing his popular talk show in Milwaukee, The Mark Belling Late Afternoon Show. The suspension stems from Belling's use of the term "wetbacks" to describe illegal alien voters.

The wetback slur prompted liberal groups from all over Milwaukee to demand that Belling be fired. The SILENCE BELLING MOVEMENT is being led by all the usual left wing suspects, including Latino newspaper publisher Victor Huyke, and Robert Miranda, a local leftie ne'er-do-well complainer.

Yesterday on Sykes' show, Latino newspaper publisher Victor Huyke, one of the leaders of the movement to have Belling fired for uttering a slur, uttered one himself. Huyke told Sykes on the air that Milwaukee Latinos would not be treated "like a retarded kid sitting in the corner."

Today, Sykes read a letter of apology from Huyke, who stated that he sincerely was sorry for using the term "retarded" to describe the mentally challenged.

Sykes also read excerpts from an article critical of Belling written by another leader of the SILENCE BELLING MOVEMENT, Robert Miranda, who wrote the following article comparing Belling to Hitler:

Sykes also referred to an email he received from a Shorewood man, a counter-protester at a SILENCE BELLING MOVEMENT rally. At the rally, the coutner-prtester was called a "Klansman" and a "Nazi" by Mr. Miranda.

Sykes asked listeners rhetorically: Is the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel going to mention the Huyke slur? And how is comparing Belling to Hitler, and calling Belling supporters "Nazis," not hate speech?

Over time I seldom do anymore, but they are both available via the 'net, at least at one time they were...

Bith WTMJ and WISN stream local programs over the Internet (though WTMJ requires you to install a small-fry third-party player).

Here you go. WISN-AM over the internet. Click on the "Click here to listen live" link, and do it through MS Internet Explorer (link loads Liquid Compass, with which I've had problems in Netscape).

WISN-AM

I can maybe get WISN when the air is clear, the sun is out, the wind is blowing out of the south, and I turn 30 degrees southeast!

Don't forget to jump up and down and bark like a chicken!

I sent a comment to freebelling.com to let them know about the rally at the station. Hopefully they can spread the word.

Right now I am listening to Rush Limbaugh through his website and Rush 24/7 and Hannity through his website ... I am personally boycotting WISN until they do the right thing here. I dont listen to WISN in the morning anyway, since I listen to Charlie Sykes ... but I even gave up Homer for WTMJ's Sports Central.

Need sign suggestions.

How about the sarcastic protestwarrior.com style signs:


Nazi's for censorship!
Liberals for tolerance, except conservatives!
Illegal Aliens should vote too!
Hate Speech or Free Speech?

soliciting more suggestions.

One I am considering making will say "Liberal Brownshirts hate Free Speech," with a swastika replacing the "s" in "brownshirts." But .. and anyone's feedback is welcome here ... does using Nazi comparisons make us any better than Robert Miranda?

Is there a Wisconsin chapter of the Protest Warrior's?
Does anyone have a web site or contact information for the Wisconsin chapter?

Anyone have some good slogans for posters they would like to share?

My wife & I will be at WISN by 10:00AM on Saturday. We may not have time to make a sign so if anyone has extra signs please let me know. I may be able to bring a few of my friends as well.

Lets Roll!

I'd use the "SS" symbol instead of a swastika, but I'm a bit more subtle than your average Vast Right-Wing Conspirator :-)

YEah, being bilingual is great -- all the kids should learn more than one language. But teaching the immigrant kids in spanish rather than teaching them to speak english is abhorrent and one of the biggest problems in America today. And only liberal doublethink can justify it because it makes no sense.

Agreed ... if I had time, I'd love to learn a second language. But as a teacher and working on my Master's degree with other teachers, we have a solid consensus that teaching kids in a language other than English has caused more problems that it has solved. Schools are also making language programs more readily available to students, which is a good thing. I don't know any French ... unless you count "I surrender."

yes, there is a couple of wisconsin protest warrior chapters. I know there is a milwaukee and madison chapters. Go the www.protestwarrior.com site and follow links to the chapter of your choice. Email confirmation is required to join, and it took me a few days to get in (just joined the MKE chapter around election time).

I'll ping the chapter president when I get home to ask him to approve freepers who up today. Maybee we can get a good turnout tomorrow.

Another update from Mark from his weekly article:

I would like to end this column on a personal note. I have been informed by Conley Media and the editors of this paper that this column will continue to appear in its regular spot each week. They have refused to bow to demands that I be replaced. The same message has been given to me by the Conley folks who publish a weekly paper in which I write a separate column and by Hometown Publications, a chain that also carries the other column.

I appreciate this support deeply, particularly as it comes at a time in which individuals who want to silence my voice are applying an enormous amount of heat. If those of us with a rightist perspective are gagged every time we err, the only media left will be, well, the Journal Sentinel. Thanks for the support.

The flu huh? Maybe we can get you to do the up close interviews with the Urinal-sentinal reporters that are feeding this mob-frenzy. Make sure you cough a lot on him. ;-)
