Beck Warns Americans Against Falling in With ‘Right’s Version of Occupy Wall Street’ (Bundy)
The Blaze ^ | April 14, 2014 | Erica Ritz

Posted on 04/15/2014 7:20:44 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The controversy over a Nevada rancher’s decades-long use of public land without paying federal grazing fees has quickly become a national issue — one that Glenn Beck on Monday urged Americans to fully understand before taking a side on.

“We did some research online with PsyID today, and found that there’s about 10 or 15 percent of the people who are talking about this online that are truly frightening,” Beck said on his television program. “They don’t care what the facts are. They just want a fight.”

Beck said there are many “decent, small-government proponents from groups like the Tea Party” supporting Bundy, and they need to be aware that the controversy has drawn “violent, anti-government” individuals who are “the right’s version of Occupy Wall Street,” as well....

Beck is a cultist and an (ex?)alcoholic, so I pay no attention to his theological ramblings.

BTW, this is BECK’S website doing the “reporting” on his statement, Einstein!

I usually can only take about 5 or 6 minutes of Beck and his sidekicks on the radio.

I’ve got to admit that I was a little rattled by the admission of the strategy of putting women and children out front so they could be filmed getting shot first.

Palestinian much?

Translation: "I've been a plant all along, held in reserve for just such a situation. And besides, Harry Reid is a Mormon, just like me, he couldn't be evil."

And buy gold. And buy plant seeds.

And we'll be back tomorrow with a truly frightening expose of that one thing that we're gonna expose...

“When I saw that video when [protesters] were lunging and jumping at the agents,

I'd like to see that video, you know the one that isn't where they guy got tazed three times, or the one where someone lunged at a dog (but not seen in the video), or where the 57 year old lady got thrown down.... Yeah, I'd like to see all that scary 'lunging' going on.

Yes, there were a couple instances where certain protesters were prone in sniper stance, but I'd bet that there were also government goons doing the same thing...much farther out of normal sight.

I'd also have like to have not been bombarded with "shit hit the fan" popup adds from "The Blaze" [his site] for that dystopian cataclysm his ads hawk. But, hey, THIS isn't scary like all that 'lunging' going on.

I listened to him for a while. I finally concluded he's out for himself, and that there is something very wrong with his mental capability.

I do believe you’ve hit the nail on the head. I never thought he was a core Conservative. Perhaps now he’s trying to get back with the “In Crowd”.

Glen treated this ‘Change’ as something new that he could capitalize upon. He’s quoted history of the ‘Progressives’ but has learned nothing from it.
The term is charlatan.

For years, Beck has advocated peaceful protest in the footsteps of individuals like Mahatma Gandhi, Jesus Christ, and Martin Luther King, Jr. But, just like the left had Occupy Wall Street, Beck knows that the right will have angry advocates, as well.

“If we fail to turn to [God] now, and fail to follow the footsteps of the guy who said ‘shod your feet in peace,’ we will not succeed,” Beck reiterated. “I can’t make it any clearer.”


I think I might gag.

This is the libs trying to stir up trouble. The only reason this story is reported is because they think they can paint Beck in a bad light.

'The Blaze' - the source of this article - is Beck's own website/media outlet.

So how is this 'libs' tryng to 'stir up trouble'? Does Beck now hire liberals on his own network to write articles raising a stink on his positions? To paint him in a bad light on his own network?

Not a very well thought out post by you.

Was that ever really confirmed? And who planned it?

I did like Beck during his time on Fox. I thought his presentations were excellent.

But what happened to him here? Very disappointing.

Beck has a point here, but being a bit dramatic. Peaceful civil disobedience is a much more effective in my opinion.

The way Beck’s been acting the last 6 months leads me to believe he’s had a midnight session with The One who laid out his NSA profile or photographs doing some things he shouldn’t have. Its the Jimmy Baker / Swaggert takedown method. Beck hasn’t been acting like himself the past few months. I wonder if the real one was kidnapped and a clone put in his place

Which is it? Can’t be the “right’s version of Occupy Wall Street” and “truly frightening” because they were anything but.
