Fox Nation on ‘Fast and Furious’: A Deluge of Death Threats and Racism

The Fox News audience spews racism and threats (again)
Wingnuts • Views: 28,116

Has anyone else noticed that the Fox News “community site,” Fox Nation, has turned into a den of racism indistinguishable from the worst neo-Nazi hate sites?

Today they posted an article from the Washington Times on the ATF “Fast and Furious” scandal (which I strongly suspect will turn out to be another fake or overblown right wing outrage), and the Fox News audience reacted like this:

Er, and those aren't really cherrypicked. First quote I saw:

We need a special prosecutor to investigate Holder and Obama. If found guilty they should be tried for Treason and if found guilty, hung. Hezbollah is in Mexico. They do not wish us well. The Obama policy on immigrationis leaving the border open for the terrorists to cross and do their mischief. Their programs like fast and furious are also supplying them firearms.

Hezbollah is in Mexico? Where do these loonies get their conspiracy stories from? The department of "Wouldn't It Be Convenient For My Argument If"?

Looks like the Secret Service is in for a long weekend.

What is most troubling about this is that outside of LGF, the world seems to accept these kinds of threats as no big deal. Shameful, just shameful.

Interesting...the chimp fires near their feet but there isn't any dirt kicked up by the shots...I'm guessing this is staged, in which case I'd say it acts better than Rambo(Sylvester Stallone). And are we to believe that African soldiers in the deep jungle are busy putting videos of themselves up on YouTube?

Fox put that story up for one reason - to give their readers something else to joke about the Obamas with.

Fox News and Fox Nation. One and the same. What you see is what you get. Outright hatred,bigotry and talk of treason. Sedition. Violation of rights of American citizens. Threats of violence and retribution to those who are not "right" or of proper conduct as per a chosen mindset that runs on hate. A pack of rabid hyenas has more class. A Proud Fascist site that would warm a Brown Shirts heart. Some discourse, some organization. Let the advertisers on Fox know your displeasure. I will.

Whoever the user "joseywhales" over there is, he's most definitely going to get a visit from the Secret Service, because there are a few posts that he made that are definitely direct death threat toward Holder, and toward President Obama.

Example:

O'Reilly Compared DailyKos To The KKK And Nazi's Because Of Comments Posted On The Site:

During the July 18 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, while discussing JetBlue's decision to sponsor the YearlyKos convention, host Bill O'Reilly asserted that the blog Daily Kos is a "hate website[]" and opined: "There's no difference between the KKK and the Nazis, who have websites, than the Daily Kos. Because the Daily Kos is basically saying, 'We're allowing this kind of thing to come on.' " O'Reilly then offered the following examples of the type of commentary that purportedly appears on Daily Kos: " 'It's good that [White House press secretary] Tony Snow has a recurrence of cancer; we hope he dies. We're sorry the assassination attempt against Dick Cheney failed; let them try again.' And on and on and on and on."

O'Reilly previously compared Daily Kos to the Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan on the July 16 edition of his program and, as Media Matters for America documented, defended this comparison the following night. O'Reilly maintained that "[t]he comparison is valid" and, in response to a viewer who said that O'Reilly "owe[d] me and thousands of others an apology" because "you should not compare anything to the Nazis," asserted: "Hate is hate, sir. That website traffics in it, as do the Nazi websites. No difference."

Additionally, the examples of Daily Kos content cited by O'Reilly appear to have come from user comments -- not Daily Kos blog posts. There is no reason to believe or suggest that the handful of offensive comments that O'Reilly singles out are in any way representative of the thousands of comments appearing on the site or the views of those who operate the site. For instance, O'Reilly's reference to Daily Kos "hop[ing]" that Snow "dies" apparently comes from a comment on a March 27 blog post.

I somehow doubt this commentator had his family killed and farm burned by "union" militia like the character in the film did.

And the whole Kansas-Missouri border war in the 1850s leading up to the US Civil War was a mess.

Stealth socialism...

Half of US social program recipients believe they "have not used a government social program"

This comment on that article is awesome.

This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the US Department of Energy. I then took a shower in the clean water provided by the municipal water supply. After that, I turned the TV to one of the FCC regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration determined what the weather was going to be like using satellites designed, built, and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. I watched this while eating my breakfast of US Department of Agriculture inspected food and taking drugs which have been determined as safe by the Food and Drug Administration.

At the appropriate time as regulated by the US Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the US Naval Observatory, I get into my National Highway Traffic Safety Administration approved automobile and set out to work on the roads built by local, state, and federal Departments of Transportation, possibly stopping to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank. On the way out the door I deposit any mail I have to be sent out via the US Postal Service and drop the kids off at the public school.

After work, I drive my NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to a house which has not burned down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and Fire Marshal inspection, and which has not been plundered of all its valuables thanks to the local police department.

I then log onto the internet which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration and post on freerepublic.com and Fox News forums about how SOCIALISM in medicine is BAD because the Government can't do anything right.

Missed the Atlantis, and final shuttle, launch this morning:

I remember the first shuttle launch, running around with a couple of friends early in the morning to meet up with some others to watch it - all astronomy majors/geeks. Ah... those were the good ol' days.

Well, we minorities know exactly how red america views us.

Everything they do and say vindicates how we talk about our experience, (and voting patterns.)

Let the circular firing squad commence!

Texas SBOE Chair: “Right now there are six true conservative Christians on the board.”

There are 10 Republicans on the board. She's basically saying there are six true conservatives and then there's everyone else.

Missed the Atlantis, and final shuttle, launch this morning:

[Video]I remember the first shuttle launch, running around with a couple of friends early in the morning to meet up with some others to watch it - all astronomy majors/geeks. Ah... those were the good ol' days.

The first several launches were A Big Deal, and launch coverage pre-empted TV shows. I wrote to NASA and demanded (like any self-respecting 7 year old who had Star Wars Derangement Syndrome) that they send me all possible information about the space shuttle. I don't remember exactly what I asked for, but I probably asked for everything up to and including serial numbers of the individual parts, along with complete dossiers of everyone who had anything to do with the program.

Some time later, I received a huuuuuuuuuge pack of stuff from NASA, which I still have (somewhere). It had eleventy-seven 8x10 photos of everything from the shuttle itself to the launch pad, the crew photos, all kinds of stuff. Publications out the wazoo, some NASA logo decals, and other random stuff. It probably consisted of every press kit they had available at the time. I took it to school and lorded it over the other kids who weren't cool enough to get NASA stuff in the mail.

I was like, in love with and wanted to marry the Space Shuttle.

This is pretty awesome

I somehow doubt this commentator had his family killed and farm burned by "union" militia like the character in the film did.

But he feels JUST as violated by Obama being President as any man that every actually had kid family killed and his farm burned by Union militia!

Better believe it!!

//Oh, these sorts annoy me.

There was a blogger - Slacktivist, maybe? - who did the same thing with the Left Behind stuff.

My cap is off to those guys. I would have gotten halfway through those stories and dug my eyes outta my head with a spoon.

Slacktivist is still going, currently on "Tribulation Force".

I comment over there sometimes. It's hilarious.

Also, the books are being flayed by a devout Evangelical (who refers to "Left Behind" as 'pulp heresy'), so he knows what he's looking at as he lights it up. Very funny and informative.

I think I read that somewhere. He couldn't understand what anyone would see in Edward and thinks Meyer is crazy. He was quoted somewhere that the first book reads like a bad fantasy that wasn't meant to be published and that she's in love with the fictional character of Edward.

Mary Sue comes to life and walks among us.

Welcome. You won't get many answers because you are at the end of a stale thread. (Note it's been more than 3 hrs since the previous comment.) Come on up to one of the threads at the top of the page.
