Glenn Beck Under Investigation For Alleged Threat Against Trump
CBS DFW ^ | 3/4/16 | CBS DFW

Posted on 03/05/2016 5:54:30 AM PST by jimbo123

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck is under investigation after a comment he made on his radio show when talking about GOP front-runner Donald Trump. Beck says his comment was not directed towards the presidential candidate.

This appears to be a misunderstanding but the Secret Service tells CBS11 it’s aware of the comment and will conduct an appropriate follow-up investigation.

I'll wager the Secret Service put the fear of God into smart ass Glenn by reminding him that words like he used are easily misinterpreted.

Beck can be grateful (for now) that crackpots who actually take violent action against political figures are Left-wing, not his Right-wing listening audience.

Joke or no, misunderstanding or not, I'm glad to see the Secret Service doing their due diligence.

Glenn is making the talk show listeners look bad. His audience is putting up with this. He is painting all of them with this conspiratorial over tones.

Beck is a Mormon and thinks pornography is the biggest threat the United States faces. I used to listen to him when I could. He should have stayed on the sauce, he used to make more sense and not be such a melodramatic teenage girl.

Cruz looks to me like "WTF did I let myself get talked into being photographed up on stage with this loon?"

Time out for an urban legend / half remembered story...a portly local politician who was known for thinking himself a ladies' man, making an offhand remark about a passing woman's breasts; he said or did something like holding his hands up as though pawing them and saying "nice bazoombas" (or similar). He suddenly froze and his eyes went to the size of dinner plates as he uttered his horrifying realization:

"We're probably live."

Obama would like nothing better than to use stupid Beck as an example of how looneys and those who make threats get their guns taken away.

Beck needs to seriously get a handle on his behavior and rhetoric lest he be made into a well known example.

Sad thing is, all Beck has to do is cut it all out.

oops, did I say cut? I shouldn’t give Beck any ideas. LOL

Has the guy on the left disavowed the lunatic on the right yet?

If not, I’m voting Trump.

Is this along the same lines as saying you could go into times square and shoot someone and get away with it?

If a middle schooler or high school student said they could go out into a playground and shoot someone and get away with it, wouldn’t they be expelled?

Well, now, let’s give the man a break. He is after all running for president. That has to mean something.

By the way, have any of his businesses made America great or do they all feed off the profits of other entrepaneurs and businesses? Casinos, hotels, golf courses. Couldn’t exist without others who truly made America great.

Just my opinion. I’ll say it now since first amendment rights will be torn to shreads if DT Barnum becomes the capitalist obama.

I'd like to see Donald Straight-talker Trump ignore real and fake racist/Klan comments that favor or pretend to favor him.

How can he?

It's being thrown in his face daily.

He wasn’t talking about his pal.

He was talking about Trump and everyone knows it.

The wagons are circling because Beck has created problems for conservative media.

This is COMPLETE BULL!

Unless you're listening to a different audio then me, Beck was clearly implying stabbing Trump.

I wonder if even another 9/11 could even bring this country back together again. Probably not. America has become a nation of tribes fighting with one another. It’s ugly and I’m ashamed. Moochelle might be proud of America of what America has become under the reign of Obama but I am not. It’s now a fundamentally deformed country. A third world banana republic. Good job DemocRATS!

People have been cuffed and taken to jail for saying far less. Beck should be cuffed and taken to a mental health facility to be force fed the meds he has been skipping. He is off his medication and for a manic depressive that is a bad move.
