Rob Schneider Tells Chris Stigall: We Are Sliding Very Fast Towards Fascism
CBS News Philly ^ | May 2, 2014 10:20 AM | Chris Stigall

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Chris Stigall spoke with comedian Rob Schneider on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT about the struggle comedians face in today’s current political environment. Schneider struck on ominous tone when discussing the path he sees the country on.

“Democracies don’t end well. We are sliding very fast towards fascism. It’s an ugly kind of thing. There’s this kind of mob mentality that we have to be careful of,” he said.

He believes comedians are pressured toward one side of the political spectrum.

“There’s a polarization that’s happening…I do think you look can look at government and go, ‘Wow, it is out of control now,’ and if you do criticize or tend to be not directly along a liberal stand, you can get murdered,” Schneider commented.

Schneider was very critical of the President’s handling of the economy and he feels certain policies are impacting businesses.

“There’s not one segment of business under the Obama administration that hasn’t been hurt…he attacks for-profit schools, which is totally an elitist thing from a guy that went to Harvard. I think for free, by the way,” Schneider said.

He was also critical of the media for being overly influenced by the government and not standing up for the American people.

“We don’t really have freedom of the press. It’s owned by about eight different companies, and it doesn’t really express or help the average American,” Schneider stated.

The Animal
The stapler

>>You know Tim McVeigh blew up children in a daycare center right? Why don’t you call him a visionary to the faces of one of those still grieving fathers or brothers.

Thank you for proving my point. How many American children today will grow up to be slaves to our nation’s debt? A government-funded day care center in a federal building is just one of those debts.

“After all, who’s willing to look back at Tim McVeigh and think, “Hmmm. Maybe he was really a visionary.”

That’d be a bit of a stretch anytime, anywhere. McVeigh was crazy baby killer, like the IRA etc.

>>I was joking guys.

You shouldn’t have been. People need to wise up to the fact that the fascism is coming and there’s nothing we can do to stop it. Both political parties are infested with Progressives. Our children are indoctrinated in it from age 4. They just have to maintain status quo until the children of the Cold War era are too old to resist.

The secret to surviving fascism is to make sure that you are on the side of the fascists. The point I was making is that we aren’t at a place where we can fight it and know that justice is on our side, but we’re too far gone down the road to just bitch about it.

” ...you can get murdered.”

Impressionist Steve Bridges, who used prosthetics and wigs to turn into presidents and laughs to make a living, was found dead at his home, his manager said Monday. He was 48.

I do talk to people.
I do warn people.
I do argue with people.

And I’m laughed at, mocked and made fun of. I’ve had life long friends call me a racist and a hatemonger. People who know me!

There are people I’ll never talk to again.

So what do I say? Or do?

Too many relatives on facebook and I’d rather engage them face to face.

So you approve of Tim McVeigh’s bombing of the federal building?

I certainly agree with the sentiment. However, ten out of every seven
pearls of wisdom attributed to George Carlin actually came from
others. True, Carlin skewered every aspect of society, culture, and
economics, but he was a lib at heart with a slight tinge of
libertarianism.

I was a big fan of Chris when he had a talk show on KC morning radio.

And some people are living in the past, believing that today’s “liberals” are actually liberal. Most are simply useful idiots for stalinist authoritarians.

It’s amazing how many have no problem with the anti-American policies the Obama regime have imposed on the USA. The regime is no completely lawless, simply blindly following the whims of “The One,” his minions, and his puppet-masters.

Who would think that Rob Schneider would be the guy to “get it”?

He can do it! He can do it all night long!

why government agencies are buying APC’s and purchasing hundreds of millions of rounds of citizen killer (hollow point) ammunition.

A government busy murdering its own citizens needn't bother with the niceties of the Geneva Conventions, including the one outlawing the use of hollow point ammo during warfare. Then again, that government wouldn't consider it "war," but "civil defense."

The economic definition of fascism is where the capital of production is owned by a select few, while government makes the business decisions. An easy hop, skip, & jump from "crony capitalism."

We now have the so called "department of justice" pressuring banks, lending institutions, and credit card processors not to do businesses with companies involved in businesses which which the Obama regime disapproves. Operation Chokepoint is designed to put all the legal, but "bad businesses" (as defined by the regime) out of business. A way to enact gun control, taking guns and ammo out of the hands of the public would be to put all the stores selling guns and ammo out of business.

The definition of economic fascism.
