And your statement that "And God does not call anyone to anger ” is just a wee bit (somewhere in the neighborhood of 180 degrees) off from what is noted in the Good Book.
I have noticed he has taken to , in a joking way, reminding those two sidekicks of his that they work for him and can be fired. Like I said he doies it jokingly but I get the impression he is very serious.
Same thing when they all make fun of the other guy--Jeffey--it's very mean spirited the way he does it.
I don't listen much, maybe 20 minutes a week. Typically it's the ass clown posse morning show routine, him belittling his "friends" or the kumbaya, Mother Theresa/MLK impersonation and I turn it off for all that stuff.
“Beck has officially gone crazy.”
I believe the correct interpretation is, “We don’t start the fight, but we don’t run from the one somebody started against us.”
Cliven Bundy is concerned only with “Stand your ground”, and while some of his reasoning is based on a different premise, I end up agreeing pretty much with what he has done and intends to continue doing.
There will NOT be an assault carried out against Harry Reid’s personal residence, or against the BLM headquarters in Las Vegas. That would only invite overwhelming retaliation on the part of the Feral government.
The Bundy ranch is now off limits to such an incursion as was faced down a few days ago at the I-15 overpass. The Feral people may very well WANT to come back, but it shall cost them dearly if they should choose that course of action.
“Don’t Tread on Me” is more than a slogan on a flag.
“I’m focusing on the 2014 election right now ...”
That seems to be the best course. November isn’t that far away, and Republicans stand to win enough seats in both houses to turn Obama into a lame duck. That would greatly improve the chances of the GOP taking the big prize in 2016.
A violent confrontation, over this particular issue, is more likely to hand the election to the Democrats (and likely 2016 too), than to spark a popular uprising.
That may be so, but it doesn't excuse the Feds' deployment of hundreds of heavily armed agents. There was no life-threatening crime in progress. Paramilitary goons for grazing cattle? It was a provocation, and a dangerously stupid one at that.
Exactly.
Keep your powder dry.
How many bars of Patriot silver does it cost?
Just a couple weeks ago he literally said “I stand with GLAAD” Now anyone who has signed on with those perverts is no friend of conservatism.
I heard Becks talk this AM. It isn’t revenge, it is self-defense...
I believe in arming ourselves as a precaution and in the Second Amendment as a stronger protection than the First Amendment. The First is worded as a fairly strong "Congress shall make no law" while the Second is worded as the even stronger "shall not be infringed." The Second is an absolute, and I believe in it as the surest guarantee of freedom, but only for so long as we take personal responsibility for defending freedom.
"But I will tell you more than I believe in my rights, I believe in the responsibilities that we have to God. And God does not call anyone to anger. God does not call anyone to vengeance ever, ever, ever."
I read the Bible differently.
Luke 22:36,38 "Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough."
To me, that says clearly that there are times to fight ("he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one"; although there are times not to fight as when Jesus was arrested) but that fighting should only be a last resort, in moderation (here are two swords . . . it is enough). Fighting, even with deadly weapons, is not necessarily about vengeance, and it is not necessarily forbidden.
I don’t know about Bundy but apparently nobody has the courage to confront a very real problem within our ranks. If retired Sheriff Mack isn’t removed from the equation, he’ll take every body down.
Terrorists fight from behind women and children and that clown proudly promoting it is more than a minor problem.
I personally believe that Beck is up and down. I agree with some things he says and disagree with others. On this issue, I think Mr. Bundy is right in that the Fed has control over far too much land and that the law is fundamentally wrong.
However, law is law and respect for the law is what has set this nation apart from many others for a long time.
What needs to be done is to change the law. THAT is the goal they should be going for now. The fight needs to be a legal one. I believe he has the support to accomplish this now.
Yesterday I had to turn off the normally sane Roger Hedgecock too..
He absolutely hates Bundy and all who supported him.
***********
I am not at all surprised. He has a strong Statist streak in him.
ROTFL. Good one!!
Very well said! That's a key point missed by many on the right. And not only have we lost the protection of due process, we have lost the concept of proportional response.
A guy doesn't pay his grazing fees, and he is faced with a unit of fed's dressed up like combat infantrymen. It's a sickening spectacle. The only thing missing was an Abrams tank. I suppose that will be added to the SOP for next time.
Yes. He and John Boehner had just finished a pillow fight.
Both wept in unison. uh huh huh huh huh huh {INHALE} uh huh huh huh {inhale} ...
You are right. All he is saying is stay calm and don’t go an start blasting. This isn’t over yet
