Nobody is saying he’s the same as Osama, jackass.

What is this? Did someone declare this the thread of really fucking stupid comparisons when I wasn’t looking?

Beck’s rhetoric is paranoid, incessantly painting the opposition as morally bankrupt, needing to be stopped at all cost, hell-bent on the destruction of all that is good. He is apocalyptic. He preaches violent revolution, violent solutions, while worming away from actual responsibility.

And the twisted pictures he paints have already inspired people to go shoot those he called out as enemies.

Wow. Did not take you long to go to the name calling card. Listen to Mathews comparison. He is comparing him to violent Jihadist in the Middle East without naming them. If he preached violent revolution he would be in jail. Your problem is you don’t know who the real enemies of this country are when you are ok with equating Beck with terrorist. It is a slippery slope when you start blaming talk show host rhetoric on peoples absurd actions.
