“Beck agrees with caller that people with liberal ideology are God’s enemy, adds “they are enemies of Him”

Sickening. Audio at Media Matters.

This isn’t just Beck being Beck. This is the consequence of years of mainstreaming ‘jokes’ and hate speech — eliminativist speech aimed at the left, democrats, and anyone who votes democrat— for the last decade and more.

This would be a good time to remind people about Jim Adkisson, the wingnut psycho who shot up a Unitarian church and wrote a screed first:

“KILL ALL LIBERALS.”

On July 27, 2008, a politically motivated[1][2] fatal shooting took place at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. Motivated by a desire to kill liberals and Democrats, gunman Jim David Adkisson fired a shotgun at members of the congregation during a youth performance of a musical, killing two people and wounding seven others.

Here is the PDF of Adkisson’s statement.

Some choice excerpts:

Know this if nothing else: This was a hate crime. I hate the damn left-wing liberals. There is a vast left-wing conspiracy in this country & these liberals are working together to attack every decent & honorable institution in the nation, trying to turn this country into a communist state. Shame on them….

“This was a symbolic killing. Who I wanted to kill was every Democrat in the Senate & House, the 100 people in Bernard Goldberg’s book. I’d like to kill everyone in the mainstream media. But I know those people were inaccessible to me. I couldn’t get to the generals & high ranking officers of the Marxist movement so I went after the foot soldiers, the chickenshit liberals that vote in these traitorous people. Someone had to get the ball rolling. I volunteered. I hope others do the same. It’s the only way we can rid America of this cancerous pestilence.”

“I thought I’d do something good for this Country Kill Democrats til the cops kill me….Liberals are a pest like termites. Millions of them Each little bite contributes to the downfall of this great nation. The only way we can rid ourselves of this evil is to kill them in the streets. Kill them where they gather. I’d like to encourage other like minded people to do what I’ve done. If life aint worth living anymore don’t just kill yourself. do something for your Country before you go. Go Kill Liberals.

Gee, where did he come up with that stuff?

Inside the house, officers found “Liberalism is a Mental Health Disorder” by radio talk show host Michael Savage, “Let Freedom Ring” by talk show host Sean Hannity, and “The O’Reilly Factor,” by television talk show host Bill O’Reilly.

And the next time some listener acts on the crazy things they say, the usual suspects will be lining up to tell us they’re ‘just entertainers’, ‘just radio hosts’ and ‘just joking’, and ‘just a rodeo clown’.
