No, Beck IS NOT "inciting violence" against the Government.

Beck is however warning Americans of the POSSIBILITY that there may be violence - akin to the Civil Rights era, the Vietnam War era.

And to that, I totally agree with him.

So far, you parrot Fox's GOP propaganda really well but have shown no ability to recognize a fact or use your mind.

Same with Greatday.

Beck isn't the only to make this obvious parallel.

They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way.

–Jim Malone,

"The Untouchables"


When Barack Obama promised to deliver "a new kind of politics" to Washington, most folk didn't picture Rahm Emanuel with a baseball bat. These days, the capital would make David Mamet, who wrote Malone's memorable movie dialogue, proud.

A White House set on kneecapping its opponents isn't, of course, entirely new. (See: Nixon) What is a little novel is the public and bare-knuckle way in which the Obama team is waging these campaigns against the other side.
This admin is reeping what it sows.

Both the Socialist I live with and my Republican boss have been saying for months that Beck has been trying to incite violence against the government and/or Obama.

IF there is to be violence against the government, something I hope and pray does not happen but, IF it does come to pass, the one responsible for "inciting" it will be Barrack Obama.

The people to look out for are the ones who take this nutcase seriously.
They are the dangerous ones.

Well, inasmuch as President Obama takes Beck seriously - why else is he trying so hard to discredit him - I see your point.

Obama IS "the" dangerous one.
