Glenn Beck trashed the youtube video poster on his radio show. This is my response. Also included is what I believe to be the source of his "shoot them before they shoot you or put you in concentration camps" routine.
Yes, I posted the "Glenn Beck Shoot Them In The Head Video Clip Found" on 1/19/11. It has gotten a lot of attention. So much so that Beck is trying to get it pulled. I am fighting it, so it is still up for now. In the meantime, Beck called out the video poster on his radio show. Called him, in so many words, um-American. A liar. A left wing stooge. He was irate and said I took him statement out of context. He says he didn't say it to his followers, he was saying it to the Democratic leaders about the progressives.
Even if I give him that, he was still advocating the party of the first part shoot the party of the second part in the head. It does not matter who he was instructing to shoot in the head, he was still advocating a horrible act. That is unacceptable.
As I heard an audio from his radio show on Friday, I knew that I had to respond in some way. I have been doing parody/political commentary videos and animation for some time. But I decided that this issue called for me to step in front of the camera for the first time to confront Mr. Beck with the reality of using such violent rhetoric.
