Barnicle: Gun-Toting ‘Crazy People’ Of Talk Radio Justify Tight Security
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/21/2009 5:31:16 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

“When they say ‘talk radio,’ they mean Rush” — promo for Rush Limbaugh show.

If Rush is right, and he usually is, then Mike Barnicle believes that Rush and/or his listeners represent a clear and present danger to Pres. Obama justifying extraordinary security measures.

An argument broke out on Morning Joe today over the very restrictive measures adopted for the inaugural. Tucker Carlson, ever the libertarian, led the charge on behalf of an approach less intrusive on the right of citizens to circulate. Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanan generally sided with Tucker, with Joe recounting the story of how when policemen tried to stop him, then a sitting congressman, from entering the Capitol during the 2001 inaugural, he plowed ahead and told them they’d have to shoot him.

Arrayed on the other side was Barnicle, and Mika Brzezinski who accused Carlson and company of being “hypocrites.” Then came the exchange wherein Barnicle took his shot at the dangerous denizens of talk radio . . .

Mike Barnicle is a confirmed plagiarist and freedom hater, like his hero, Joe Biden.

He is a thief, a liar, and an enemy of the US Constitution.

Gun-toting 'Crazy People' of Talk Radio

He's carried a Glock on the air for years. He may have skipped a few years when he was broadcasting from MSNBC in NJ. He's also one of the special, priveledged few with a NYC carry permit.

It's a very rare day when see a conservative attack a liberal physically. On the other hand, how many dozens (if not more?) attacks have I seen coming from rabid liberals?

In face, examples such as these only come from liberals. Follows:






Indeed only from the left....and Islamic terrorists.

Which Bambi will gleefully sign into law.

I guess Barnicle didn't get the message that the major threats coming out of yesterday's events were from Somali muslims. I don't know any of those who are doing talk radio in the U.S. these days.

Mr. Carbuncal, most people I know hate people of the media that caused Obama to be elected, not Obama himself.

You people in media may see streets filled with us crazies carrying torches and chains in the future and we will be coming for you and your type.

Setting the stage to blame talk radio and the vast right wing should anything happen...just like Clinton did after the McVeigh (and ?) Oklahoma City bombing.

If the right did that, it would be hate speech.

That’s a goal, but not the “ultimate goal”.

The ultimate goal is to achieve an absence of opposition.

Marx:
“The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.”

THAT is their ultimate goal.

I can logically prove that the left is the willing tool of Satan.

In a nutshell,
God gave His commandments.
You’re either doing God’s will or you’re doing Satan’s will.
The left not only wilfully breaks ALL of the horizontal commandments (and most of the vertical ones as well), but ACTIVELY encourages others to do so as well.

Speaking of OKC...
I just picked up the “Turner Diaries”.

The preface to the book said that he was making sure that it was published in order to warn people that there are violent, gun-toating racists out there just like “The Organization” and Turner himself.

In reading only a few pages into the book, I do indeed see it as a warning. A warning about an overreaching government intent on total control of the populace, and using government to exact racial vengeance.

I think he means that unsupervised speech will impede the socialist agenda of our new administration, and it must be brought in line if we are to have progress.

Yep. That “free speech” thing is just too dangerous. It has to be regulated.

If the 80+ million gun owners in this country were the sort of crazed murderers the left thinks we are, the left would have been extinct years ago.

....if you were interested in The Turner Diaries then check out “Civil War Two: The Coming Breakup of America” by Thomas W. Chittum.....it’s non fiction and observes that racial/ethnic based wars of separation and partition are occuring globally and will come here too...in other words, race war will fracture the nation into separate countries

.....the book is getting hard to find in print but was available on the internet last time I looked.

And what of the last 8 yrs.(actually more like 9 with the campaign) of hate mongering by these scumbags toward Bush. They pushed nothing but nonstop attacks and hate at President Bush and jokes, questions of why hasn’t he and movies about his assassination. All out war as far as I’m concerned and conservatives need to take to the street when this starts to go to inevitable censorship.

Sometimes, I wish I could tell Barnicle to go to his corner, to pick his nose and eat his fingerfood.

When I hear “Barnicle”, I think “barnacle” or “carbuncle”.

My personal opinion is that they can pass all the anti gun laws they want and trample on the constitution, but they will never disarm America.

====================\
The problem is that they will try and the unintended consequences will be devastating.

At the same time beware the incremental nips, that’s how they got the Public Education System.

In case I cannot locate Civil War Two, does it conclude that the UN has to step in to restore order?

“BARNICLE: I think we’ve become a nation of totally overly-self important people. We pick up the phone and call these talk shows, we blog anonymously, and we think our opinions are the same as everyone else’s –

Barnicle caught himself at that moment, scrambling to add “which they are in a sense.”

Oh too good! “If you want to have opinions ask me and I'll give ‘em to ya!” How rich! Barnacle Bilious, the Wailer.

...No it ends with a list of recommendations to prepare yourself; among them:
1.buy a gun*
2.disassemble it and hide it
3.don’t tell anybody about it
*....he prefers the 7.62 NATO round for it’s sheer power.

It takes a special kind of derangement to go so far as to make some of those props. That’s not just simple difference of opinion, that’s downright mental illness.
