First time I've seen this. Talk about borderline insanity.

You'll note how he HATES and despises tried and true DEMOCRAT and left-wing disruption tactics being used against HIM, but when his tyope use it against someone else it's "the People's Activism".

I just looked up his bio - he’s a 32 year old, liberal kid!

Nothing here....

Max Blumenthal and his running dog lackeys have pretty much co-opted the Fascism field all to themselves.

Poor Max.

Their argument against conservativism has jumped the shark.

Ironically, the left loves guns ... but only when THEY have them all. 120+ Million dead and counting ... and that doesn’t include the babies they have killed.

Just another Jewish American Democrat (JAD).

Self righteous, self-loathing, loud, insulting, and wrong.

“These people that are purchasing these guns are people that are worried about what’s going on in this country,”

Nope...these are the people that got caught flat-footed. People that were worried about the future of the country already had their weapons.

As Jonah Goldberg has demonstrated quite well, the definition of "fascist" is "people I really don't like".

The Left has been using this definition for many decades. For them, the term has no other meaning.

Knowledgeable people, on the other hand, understand that fascism is a form of socialism -- it is a brand of leftwing politics -- and it involves the ending of independent private property. Property may be owned by individuals and businesses, but may only be used within parameters established by the state.

"All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state." -- Benito Mussolini

Who is in charge right now and just who has implemented some really scary tracking of individual citizens and completely trashed rights in this country.

*Hint - It’s the democrats in POWER.

What’s interesting is that they seem to have no clue what fascism means.

I presume these are college educated jouranlists.

I see that he indicates that someone at a gun show talking in a paranoid manner about government round ups is automatically a Tea Party member - this is a common meme on the left as we approach elections in Nov.
I’ve noticed that desperate lefties have begun to whisper and hiss with louder urgency about ‘fascism’ on the right.
That’s it? That’s all they got? “Don’t vote for Republicans because they are gun worshipping fascists?” It’s not a new motto for the Left, they’ve worn it out by now. And they’ve worn out “Bush’s Fault!”. Among the left, isn’t there ANYONE who can pull together a constructive critique of Republicans. I mean, we on the right have some complaints about spineless rhino’s that could be repurposed for use by the left that would be FAR more persuasive then the old ‘bitter clingers’ and ‘jack booted fascists’ memes.

What dummies...Obama is driving us toward fascism. Glad to know where “Veterans Today” stands—and it’s apparently over in Seig Heil valley.

It’s interesting all these firsthand horror stories the lefties report hanging around gun shows, churches, tea parties etc.

Funny I’ve been around all those places for my whole life (64 years) & have never really seen much of the hatred, racism, nazism that they seem to easily encounter.

This guy Blumenthal is a professional radical left propagandist. He writes a column for Salon, publishes in the Daily Beast and The Nation. Nuff said.

‘In the middle of our discussion, a dozen College Republicans stormed the front of the stage with signs denouncing me as a “left-wing hack”’

Welcome to college “tolerance” and “civility”. I guess as a liberal, you’ve never experienced it before.

I could laugh at your recounting them being “a dozen”. Try hundreds of liberal losers heckling you and throwing things.

Of course, also laugh because those dozen are probably the ONLY College Republicans on that campus. 100% participation.

And remember who his daddy is - 'Sid Viscious' Blumenthal, from the Clinton gang.
