Glenn Beck 'doubles down' on George Zimmmerman's "guilt"
GlennBeck.com ^ | 03/28/2012 | Glenn Beck

Posted on 03/29/2012 10:23:33 AM PDT by vikingrinn

“Now, let me be clear: I am not defending George Zimmerman in any way. Right now I think he’s most likely guilty,” Glenn said.

“Let’s pray the system takes its course before some lunatic decides to listen to the words of The Black Panthers and try to get an ‘eye for an eye’.”

Breitbart, or whoever called him Elmer Gantry

I agree .... that and the fact that his radio show has turned into a two-hour long infomercial.

I haven’t watched his show for a long time now. Ok, I stand corrected on Romney. Unless Beck believes that the best way to promote Romney among conservatives is to bait’n’switch them with Rick.

Beck is a good man in most ways, but he owes the Zimmermans a BIG apology. Mostly guilty? Good grief. I knew better than to offer anyone any kind of opinion just because there was leftist hype about it. It’s time he learns that simple truth. When the right boldly challenges the left’s viewpoint, you can take it to the bank 99% of the time.

That is precisely what they mean when they chant “no justice, no peace”...just a not-so-veiled threat of another race riot.

I mean obammunism. As bad as that financial crisis was, if the adults were in charge we would have had a recession, then that would have been that - we’d be well untracked now. This economy could STILL roar to life if somebody would bother to choke the throttle.

Before the apocalypse, I used to think Beck was fine when he was on politics, but he would lose me when he would morph into some sort of motivational life coach, Tony Robbins style...

I think Beck has expressed the ideal of not using deadly force in self defense. He's fearful that a civil war is coming with an economic collapse and has an ideal everyone could act like “little house on the prairie” if they are told to do so. Submission and fear feeds lefty racists and only makes them more aggressive and violent.

Glenn Beck has adopted some of the worst tactics of the left.

He pretended to be for conservative candidates, and for conservative issues, all the while herding the sheeple around the corral with the end goal being coercing them into the arms of Mitt Romney. Suckers!

Obviously, Trayvon Martin was already developing a reputation as a serial violent offender. Now he is reformed, permanently.

I really liked his book, Arguing with Idiots, but that was about it. Something happened to him. I’m not sure what.

Him and Coulter. And then Palin drops out. And now Obama's legal status questions are gaining traction.

So the age-old question is, who gains?

Hmmm...

I think it’s simple. Beck likes to have advertisers, and picks a few issues, like eligibility and the Zimmerman lynching, and goes round the bend with them.

“See, can’t call me a mindless conservative! I make fun of birthers and sympathize with my oppressed black brothers!”

He’s a showman. He’s trying to satisfy his sponsors and his audience. Maybe that’s as deep as it goes.

I’ve heard quite a few conservative talkers treading very, very lightly around this issue. I think there is real fear out there, and not just fear of racial violence. There is fear of losing sponsors, or being replaced because of an statement that gets quoted out of context on this white hot issue.

Sad, strange times.

Funny talk for a guy who I hear carries concealed firearms. So according to Beck, Zimmerman was suppose to give Martin his gun so he could shoot Zimmerman when Martin was done pummeling him.

The punk Martin met the wrong guy. He should have picked on a guy who could spin him like a toy top in a fight. But that usually doesn't happen because bullies size up people they feel they can easily dominate and not get hurt. Hypothetically speaking, if he tried to take me, he would still be alive today as I would made short work of that 17 year old, and sat on him until the cops came to picked him up for assault. Martin would have been an inconsequential notice on the local police blotter instead of being dead and having Sharpton and Jackson come to town to demagogue with the liberal national media in tow.

A punk who mugs or physically assaults persons who are not capable of physically fighting back and they also carry firearms, the punk has a great chance of getting shot by those persons since they fear for their lives against brutes and bullies.

He's fearful that a civil war is coming with an economic collapse and has an ideal everyone could act like “little house on the prairie” if they are told to do so.

I'm still waiting for Beck's coming revolution of chaos started by the communists, anarchists, globalists, and other assorted malcontents that he says is imminently going to happen in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 2012. /not so much sarcasm

WTH is wrong with Glenn Beck? Does he take a double dose of STUPID with his corn flakes in the morning? The thing to say is: “There is too much contradicting information or important things not yet released to the public. People need to wait until all the evidence has been evaluated.”

[Hint to Beck: “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool instead if opening your mouth and removing all doubt.”]

I note that he accepted “Carbonite” formerly advertised on Rush Limbaugh, as a new advertiser.

He seems to me to be another opportunist. I hope that he does some good as he helps himself to his next 100 million.

Who is this ash hole? Why do we need to hear what he has to say? In the end I think we will hear that he is an un-medicated manic depressive.
