A very depressing movie, though.

In Seattle, the wind always blows Left.

Portland, same.

Our NPR tax dollars and KNKX are sending a clear message: “Don’t you dare compare our antisemitic fascist riots with those bad people!”

Reaction came swiftly from the left on social media accusing Mass of anti-Semitism and exaggerating what was going on in riots in Seattle.

Anonymous snitch accuses Jewish person of being anti-Semitic. NPR fires Jewish person. Makes sense. Total sense. Yes sir.

And I think KNKX should be shut down because the first thing I thought of when I saw their call sign...was KKK. Their call sign is racist.

They have the historical perspective of gerbils.

Most of the replies on his blog are positive.

Found that surprising.

His post on his personal blog compares recent events in Seattle to Kristallnacht, the 1938 pogrom carried out by Nazi Germany, and draws distorted, offensive parallels between protesters and Nazi Brownshirts.

I'm glad the nprtards referenced the comparison. It reminds me of someone trying to convince you to NOT think about a big spider on your back if you have an itch.

Mass has been under their skin for years because he is a renowned climatologist who does not believe scientific evidence supports anthropogenic climate change.

This krystalknacht reason for firing is just an excuse. Liberal donors to the station want him gone, so he’s gone.

Your #29 is quite surprising, given the times and the place.

Surprising and encouraging.

I also see the current events as the American Kristallnacht. Only the Woking Dead are too blind to see.

Hmm, when I asked Tennis Channel if it was okay with its commentator Brett Haber mouthing off about Trump on Twitter, I was told that “The tweet in question is from Mr. Haber’s private account not Tennis Channel’s.”

Guaranteed if he was Tweeting out that Obama is a douchebag he’d be fired.
