Sheriff Richard Mack Calls out Glenn Beck over his Monday commentary on the Battle of Bundy Hill.
Well, now, of what does Glenn Beck have to be ashamed? Let's take a look-see:
Conservatives on social media have blasted Glenn Beck for declaring he did not support protesters at Bundy Ranch in Nevada who seemed to want an armed confrontation with law enforcement.Well, I'd say that's overstating it a smidge. Those who traveled to Nevada to "stand with Clive" didn't threaten a confrontation - the BLM did that quite unequivocally - but rather stood their ground and made it clear that the feds were going to have to go through them to get to Mr. Bundy. That stand is what persuaded BLM higher-ups to back down since that would have been an unspinnable public relations disaster for the Obama Regime, which isn't yet to the point of executing its coup de tat and can't afford to let that cat out of the bag.
Monday on his radio show, Beck said that as a fellow rancher he had sympathy for Cliven Bundy, who refuses to pay over $1 million in back fees for illegally grazing his cattle on public land. But he denounced militia members and others who threatened an armed confrontation with federal authorities over the ranch.
And if the standoff had become a twenty-first century Kent State incident, Clive Bundy and his supporters would have become martyrs that would have rallied droves to the Constitutionalist cause. So I don't think Mr. Beck has quite grasped the full propaganda dynamic of the situation.
However, neither have his detractors, who are Jay Carney's wet dreams come true:
Many of his fans didn’t appreciate him siding with the federal “tyrants.”
“When the possibility of bloody conflict exists does Beck simply roll over and side with the oppressor, the tyrannical State?” one Facebook user wrote on the Glenn Beck fan page.
Another person commented: “Glenn, you are no longer a friend of the Patriots fighting for FREEDOM. Go away and sell some books and your false ‘Bravado’ to other traitors. Hpw about you yourself said this Tyranny was coming and did not stand up. Re-read Article 1 Bundy is a hero. Oh, thats why you are mad, they didn’t invite you to speak?”
“You are wrong Mr. Beck, the Founding Fathers didn’t pray away Tyranny….They shot the Tyrants….Sic Semper Tyrannus,” said another.
There are many things I could say at this point. "Beck created a monster and it's gnawing on his entrails"; "The historical figure most famous for uttering, 'Sic Semper Tyrannus' is....John Wilkes Booth, and if you think the Dems wouldn't make ample use of that in campaign ad blitzes, you're autistic"; "'Patriots' won't rest until they've turned the entire country against them in 'Thelma & Louise'/'Blues Brothers' fashion". But suffice it to say, the above is the Ted Cruz-instigated "Defund ObamaCare" intra-GOP food fight from last September writ horrifically large in volume, if not yet in footprint. And while Beck may be overstating the violent intentions of Clive Bundy's supporters, his detractors are out and out smearing him.
And for what? To guarantee that the Right will never win another election? To willfully and gleefully make of themselves the cartoon caricature the Left has always claimed we are? To so completely discredit Constitutionalism with LIVs and NIVs that the public at large will stampede back into Barack Obama's waiting arms and even applaud his coup as an act of patriotism?
Evidently, all of the above:
A number of Beck’s detractors said on his Facebook page that violence was necessary because Democrats committed voter fraud.
“Not anymore it isn’t. With so much voter fraud going on by the Democrat Party, how is that our weapon? Mounting enough votes that we have to win by an extra 8 to 10% just to pull even is our hope for the future? Hitler was voted into office. I’m all for voting, but I no longer trust it,” one user commented.
“Soon, your vote won’t matter. If you think Hilary won’t rig an election, you’ve lost your mind. it is very likely to be rigged,” another added.
“Get a grip Glenn. My vote didn’t keep Obama out of office. Our country is being destroyed and you and Obama think talk will fix it all. I am not for violence but you can’t use a sign against a fed sniper.”
"You and Obama"? Sounds like Sebastian Shaw, doesn't he?
Gentles, I would submit to you that these people have given up on the country and everything it used to stand for precisely because with their propaganda obtuseness, they would hand whatever is left of it to Barack Obama gift-wrapped and on the proverbial silver platter. They are certainly encouraging the BLM and other Obamunist police agencies to come back for more armed confrontations. And maybe that was Mr. Beck's point.
Exit question: How many of Beck's denouncers would be willing to go out in a blaze of glory themselves? Something tells me, in cattle rancher parlance, that they are far more sizzle than steak.
