Glenn Beck Defends James Gunn After Disney Firing over Child Rape Tweets: ‘We All Make Mistakes’
Breitbart ^

Posted on 07/21/2018 10:45:30 PM PDT by MNDude

Radio talker Glenn Beck put forth a defense of disgraced Disney movie director James Gunn, who was fired due to years of “jokes” about child rape. Beck took to Twitter to back Gunn despite his many vile posts about pedophilia.

“I will stand for you. We all make mistakes, we must come together as each of us grow and change,” Beck said to Gunn. “Forgive others in hope that they will forgive themselves and others too. Reach beyond your comfort zone and be kind. You don’t need my forgiveness J.G, but I offer friendship.”

Really. Chill folks this character is hitting bottom harder than the left and faster. His attempts to be relative keep dragging him farther down. He should go on a suicide watch. The fall is amazing.

Seems to me to be a train wreck. Can’t see why except for the whole gonna get it all run he went on. He wasn’t bad when he was small. Then things rolled over. 10 years and stupid took over. Strange

Glad you clarified. My jaw dropped when I saw your previous comment. I was just telling wife earlier today that Beck went off his rocker.

18. I don’t know @JamesGunn.I am a fan of Guardians of the Galaxy, but I am not a fan of his current writing on twitter, but unless he is actually accused & charged with a crime,I will not play a role in his destruction just as I refused with Ben and @MarkDuplass before him.

Yeah no thanks. Fuck that creeper. Multiple years of those “jokes” is not an accident, or a mistake. It’s a pattern that should be investigated. You know who else had a pattern? Harvey Weinstein, Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby etc etc. These people are known to be creepers, but it’s ignored.

Pedophilia

Even in the prison system, child rape is often the death penalty. Kill a cop, and you’re a hero there. Rape a woman and then kill her, no problem. But rape a child, WATCH OUT. They may have distorted values there, but they have limits.

So Mr. Beck, you’ve crossed a line that even your remaining defenders won’t be able to help you with.

You’re on your own now.

Refresh of handing out soccer balls and teddy bears at the border:

Off-putting in the highest extreme.

“He cray cray:)”

And his empire built on the back of Conservatives is crashing and burning as Conservatives tune out in droves to his madness.

Maybe something happened to him when he attended that Jesuit school. Trump made something snap in his mind and his behavior has certainly put a suspicion on Cruz because he was DESPERATE for Cruz to be elected. Isn’t he also card 324 in the Illuminati Deck of Cards?

I don’t know why my local conservative talk radio station still has him on from 9am-noon. I contacted them over a year or so ago and asked why they couldn’t put someone on that people would want to listen to. I got a snarky comment from the manager that his show was doing just fine for the radio station. I responded with a couple of FR threads as an example of what real people were saying about him but didn’t hear anything else and they still have him on. I still don’t listen between 9am-noon.

Glenn is defending him under the premise of freedom of speech. James Gunn has made horrendous statements that can stem from his being raped as a child. Per his tweets. I stand with the assumption of innocence over The presumption of guilt without evidence.

If I were Disney, he’d still be fired, for inappropriate conduct, but I would not speculate him to be a pedofile without solid evidence.

Flame away.

“Beck is sick, so who knows how deep that sickness runs & to what ends his sickness runs. I suspect he will be out of business soon.”

I thought he had already gone bust. Does he still have his operation in Southlake, Tx? Thought I read somewhere it was up for sale but not sure. Too bad. Back before he went off the rails I thought a lot of what he said made sense. Don’t know what happened to him....
