Dispatch from Glennbeckistan
Posted by Jill | 8:00 AM
This is your country when a political party sanctions hate in the name of white privilege:
Derrick Thomas was on his bike with home in his sights, returning about 1 a.m. Wednesday from hanging out with his girlfriend and cousin in Brooklyn Park.

Before he knew to be terrified, Thomas, who has autism, found himself flying over his handlebars and writhing on his back on the concrete. Standing over him, he said, were three men armed with an ax, brass knuckles and a gun.

They beat and kicked the 18-year-old while screaming a racial epithet, and they ordered him to strip naked, he told police. Then they robbed him of everything he had, including his Air Jordans, blue jeans and shirt. Police said Thomas has a mental capacity of someone 8 to 10 years old.

"They were saying stuff like, 'We hate the president; we're gonna kill the president, his wife and his kids,'" Thomas recalled from his front stoop Friday, his left eye puffy and discolored. "They said every black person that comes through our park, we're gonna kick their butt. We don't like black people, period."

Any questions?

"Glenn Beck".

Well, as usual, you're full of crap, and only post this to advance your racist agenda. Way to keep your nose firmly tied to your narrative.

These dumbass kids aren't the sort you find listening to Glenn Beck, or to any other person who strings words together correctly. If you had continued on in the article, instead of cherry picking just the things that jive with your terrible swift chord, you would find this:

"On a MySpace page, Westerlund brags about drinking and smoking marijuana and declares that BET (Black Entertainment Television) is "the best channel ever ... even though I'm white."

Does that sound like a political junkie to you?

So, keep looking for strawmen that look strangely like Glenn Beck, now, you hear? You are making a fool of yourself, but that's beyond your ken, I fear.

People who hate breed little people who hate. Me thinks Serr8d (knife??) is one of these folks similar to the thug kids in the linked story. Peace to you and yours.

Yup, Serr8ed, they must have got that,"we're gonna kill the President and his wife and kids" from a jive rap lyric they heard on BET.

Steve, did Glenn Beck ever advocate killing the President? Link, please?

But I can give you links to rap lyrics about bustin' caps in cop's asses, or father - mother raping, or any other sort of illegal drug or sex related activity. I can show you video of a kid being killed in Chicago. I'll bet none of his killers ever even heard of Glenn Beck, but I'll bet they've heard of N.W.A. and Ice Cube.

Beam, eye, and all of that. Beck doesn't amount to a splinter compared to yours.
