What do you want? Equal time for assaults and trespassing? Forget about it. They are all wrong. If they want to be heard, get their own forum. We should all show respect, not give equal time to anarchy.
BTTT
This post was NOT about the protest, and the article does not side with the protester in any way. It is about (i) the undue abuse he suffered, and (ii) lack of reporting on it by the media.
A link, please?
Thanky God the Press DID NOT advetise this idiot's foolishness. I'm surprised they didn't play this up big for the stereotype of the lunatic oppressive republican crusader.
you completely missed the point, if you ask me...
the point being, that the Liberal Media gives PLENTY of press to a conservative being attacked, because the Liberal Media thinks they deserve it...BUT they gave no press to this man, who wanted to protest Soros speaking, because of Soros support of illegal drugs ...
no where was it shown.. because Soros is one of the Liberals heros, having finanaced most of Kerrys campaign...
other than that, I dont know what you're talking about...
The guy got up and started heckling in a hostile forum. He got what he asked for....the whoopin was due. No matter how much I agree with him.
Yeah, well I for one would have liked to seen the guy stay silent until Soro's started yapping, then pull out a 44 mag and blow the friggin' commie's head off. For some reason I don't equate anti American protestors in the same vein as pro American protestors.
I think you're completely wrong.....
the man deserved to have some coverage of his heckling that lunatic liberal billionaire ... he wanted Soros to answer about his support of illegal drugs....NO ONE reported on it, because NO ONE wants anyone to think Soros isnt just the BEST THING since sliced bread.......
but thats just my and their opinion...
The one media outlet who ran the story tells it a bit differently than the "victim".
Perhaps it wasn't reported because it was a non-event, nothing like making Ann Coulter look good enough to eat. (careful, gentleman)
I think it was an event....A father heckling a Liberal Billionaire that supports illegal drugs......the AIM point was, that if they were heckling a conservative, it would have been all over the news, because of course we ALL KNOW conservatives deserve it.... but they didnt report a Father heckling Soros support of illegal drugs, because Soros is the darling of the Liberal Media....so obviously the man needed beating and shutting up....'cause Soros is SUCH a good man, why would anyone want to heckle him......
I cant believe so many of ya'll dont get this....sheesh
I agree that "he deserved to have some coverage." You and I both know that the press protects their own.
Where we diverge is on methods. I despise the idiots that interrupted Rummy's Senate testimony with "Halliburton baby killers" or whatever, and I also dislike this fella's methods. For example, Protest Warrior does a FANTASTIC job of beating the libs at their own game, but they don't incurr any arse whoopins (generally.) This guy asked for it, and he got it.
So, if this guy had gone out and vandalized some Honda Prius's he would've deserved coverage of his "point" because liberals smash SUVs all the time?
What "we don't get" is why you relativistically support an idiot on our side and don't support idiots on the other side.
Idiots do not help our cause. I can't believe you don't get that.
;-P
Hes not an idiot.....
hes a broken hearted father that wanted to protest George Soros speaking at the National Press Club....a man so anti american, he reeks of it.....
I do support this......you bet I do....
I don't approve of unnecessary force and violence (unlike the drug warriors who get their jollies from bashing doors and bashing heads) but god knows America isn't exactly wanting for anti-drug prohibitionist rhetoric. Just ask poor, oppressed John Walters about that..
You can bet if a liberal had been roughed up before a conservative forum it would have been portraid as a Rodney King moment.
AMEN!!
The MSM press are his comrades in arms (ink.)
The folks that threw pies at Ann Coulter did not help their cause.
The folks that heckled Rummy did not help their cause.
I despise them all.
I SUPPORT this poor father, but his choice of grabbing headlines did not help his cause. Why should we want to be like them?
