Poplawski's neo-Nazi activism included posting Glenn Beck video, but media look the other way

[dinosore9]

lmao "i say what i like" yes glen beck thats because your boss likes what you say

[tubegeg]

You know what is funny about this: Glenn Beck was a once a Ron Paul hater, big government and military expansion advocate. Also he supported all the bailouts and now he is scream against it. I am willing to bet if John Mccain had won, Mccain would have kept a lot of Bush policies in place and Beck would have supported them. This guy is a hypocrite and cant be trusted.

[berettam92s]

check out his old videos (back he was in CNN) before u decide to make a fool out of yourself

[padude64]

Glen Beck! Why do not you go to hell and burn continuously you bastard from hell!

[mitchrix31]

Ron Paul and Glenn Beck take your fears and reassure you with their twisted ideology, because it is twisted they need you to be afraid.

[RocktheStageNYC]

I'm sorry, what fantasy land do you come from? Nothing you wrote is even remotely true. Republican votes passed the civil rights act of '64. More Dems were against it than for it.

Nazi party:

against big business (especially Jewish capitalism), they were radical environmentalists, they banned smoking, were for abortion and youthanasia of undesirables, and were for cradle to grave nationalize health care.

hmm, which US political party does THIS sound like?

[tcslick420]

Actually, both Republicans and Democrats voted for the civil rights act with a majority voting "yes" on each side. The only reason more Dems were against it than Republicans was that there was a much larger amount of Democrats in congress, especially in the south.

And yes, the standard of living of the Germans did improve during the Nazi years, but only for Germans. Had these policies (minus the smoking ban and "euthanasia") applied to all citizens without the violence and propaganda.....

[tcslick420]

...there would have been vast improvement. I'm a small government liberal. So I'm a libertarian like Ron Paul, but in the classical sense, not the twisted one Paul is part of.

A majority of Democrats are actually very pro-big business. There ARE Democrats who oppose corporatism but generally speaking they support the market system. Even Ralph Nader supports a market system, just not Corporatism. Though I disagree with Nader on some points, he's much more liberal than most Democrats.

[2indulgent]

If Glenn Beck and Ron Paul had their way, we'd all have total "freedom" to die from serious illnesses if we can't afford health insurance.

I doubt they realize that their extreme theoretical vision of society would result in plutocracy and corporatocracy.

One more question: If Beck and Paul are "libertarians" and not social conservatives, how come they never speak out for the freedom of gays to marry whom they please? Or did I just miss the 100 times they've each advocated for such liberty?

[greygoosevodka1]

@2indulgent beck is not a libertarian, he is a corporate shill who promotes the new world order as a wonderful thing

[CitizenBeta2]

@2indulgent Its well Glen Beck is a media shill and doesn't care about anyone or thier rights.

Ron paul say's people have the right to marry who they want and gov' should stay out of it, Hes right! Neither social conservatives or social liberals have the right to force their definition of marriage on the people Via the state.

And the current system of interventionism hasn't lead to plutocracy and corporatism? where the elite use regulation to stifle completion and laws to control the people.

[conservativesamurai]

Interesting how you guys hate Beck and right-wingers, yet we are the hatemongers...

Way to be an American!

[mwells219]

it's because your side is the one who threatens the president with guns.

[padude64]

Poplawski was a right wing idiot who hated Obama and was skeered that Obama would take the pansys guns away! Put this right wing hater to death!

[kitten90390]

Its not about Obama its just he belongs to a community along with Bush(family)Clinton(family) and many others who supports the NWO. Its a real thing, prepare yourself or die.

[mutefx]

It's real if you're dumb enough to believe it.

[TheRivetthead]

@padude64 obama is a left wing moron get a like

[padude64]

Keith Olbermann is da man

[padude64]

Fuck you Beck you idiot! I will raise money for my community by having a pay per view boxing match with you knocking your ears off!

[padude64]

how is hate in this country spread?? Mainly through the republican party! Gays are hated thus gay murder and so on and if you ant to debate me, well bring it on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[padude64]

Glenn Beck!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fuck you asshole! Go out and get shot like police do you big pansy waist idiot!

[conservativesamurai]

That comment is exactly how hate is spread.

[plpfctn2007]

glenn beck should join the Richard Powlawski Party

[4u2b1ib12]

Glenn Beck answers to the man that signs the check. He does not produce the show. He is a puppet-mouthpiece for the man that signs the check.

Ex: You own a company. The company does things that a licensed BFOR,(bona fide occupational requirement), can do. Are you going to hire unlicensed personnel?

Glenn Beck talks the talk to get his check.

He is,"beholding," to the puppet-master.

[kitten90390]

I am not certain that is true. There are a few things that a producer of the show may not like, but like radio hosts it is there show and they are free to do almost everything they like. The Glen Beck show is Glen Becks show. The producer only manages it.

[4u2b1ib12]

I am referring to the Fox News check signers. The producers are paid to produce, by whom?

Glenn Beck, like all house puppets does whatever he can, to better the conservative agenda. Like you have to play along, in the group you are in. Women lie to survive. If Mr. Beck was a max-liberal, he would not be working at Fox News.

[kitten90390]

I understand. Do you know why he left or was kicked off of cnn? Because I used to watch him on CNN and he was awesome. I have not watched his show on fox though. Also I am pissed off at CNN because they have a show that has an extremely false name. Its called "No Bias, No Bull" and it stinks of extreme left.

[4u2b1ib12]

I agree. The problem is the two-party system. One Congress causes the problems. Both sides are bought by special interest, using lobby, and blame each other for any problem. In my locale, I have both parties, in elected office. I email both with questions they will not answer. Mr. Beck, and others, hypertise, (hyper-advertise), issues to further divide the populace. When they have division, they maintain power. We skirmish, they folly.

[jrrydha]

yea and fox is "fair and Balanced" right?

[RocktheStageNYC]

Fox is certainly more balanced than say MSNBC or CNN. Fox's shows at least "tries" to air opposing points of view. Sean Hannity (not a big fan of his) hands down, has the most Democrats or Liberals on his program fr debate. yes he's a shill for the Republican POV, but I don't see that level of fair debate from Maddow, Olbermann, Anderson Cooper or Chris Matthews. Even Bill O'Reilly has more Dems on his program to debate issues than anyone on MSNBC.

[mwells219]

No. I have never seen any kind of intelligent openly left wing individuals on this show. Shouting people down like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Fox and Friends and Megyn Kelly do is not debate.

[RocktheStageNYC]

Glenn Beck doesnt shout anyone down because his show rarely has guests. Hannity has them every night on his Great American whatever Panel and there are always Liberals or Democrats among them. Sean never shouts people down I give him that. Neither does Meghan or Greta. Bill O'Rielly does. But at least they offer some kind of opposing viewpoint. MSNBC and CNN very rarely do.

You don't see any tow the line Repubs on Olbermann - he gets wafflers or Rhinos at best.

[mwells219]

No I've watched evryone on fox news interrupt and talk over guests they disagree with. I have never truly heard any left wing ideas from any of these stations that conservatives keep on bringing up with the exception of Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann who are very obviously commentators. Liberals accept conservative viewpoints, why do you continue to use eliminationist rhetoric to try and make yours the only voice that can be heard. Stop using a liberal media that doesn't really exist.

[RocktheStageNYC]

"Liberals accept conservative viewpoints" - oh wow, thats funny. Thanks, you made me laugh really hard. I needed that.

[mwells219]

No. We disagree but we accept that you are allowed to have your individual beliefs. It is radical conservatives who refer to liberals as "pussies" and "faggots" and call for the murder of left wingers on a regular basis. It is radical conservatives who openly carry guns to places where the elected president is speaking. It is radical conservatives who murder progressive church groups they diagree with. It was a radical conservative who planted a bomb to kill 168 people in Oklahoma City.

[RocktheStageNYC]

it is radical Liberals who riot and burn down businesses, overturn police cars,,. Its radical Liberal who bomb the Capitol building, call for the assassination of George Bush, write books and make movies about his death. Its radical Liberals who burn down homes and destroy property in the name of "the environment".

Who are the "radical conservatives" that call for the murder of left wingers on a daily basis?

[huckleberry12]

that's hilarious.

[mwells219]

so wait, you hear stories about protesters flipping cars and you equate that with someone who kills hundreds of civilians for no other reason than politcally motivated hate or a guy who opens fire at a unitarian chuch because he's angry at liberals. I'm sorry that doesn't hold up for anyboy with and kind of common sense. You need to be honest with yourself and realize how much violence idealogical zealots on your side cause.

[RocktheStageNYC]

Ideological zealots are a problem no matter what political side they're on, On the Right you have mainly individuals like McVeigh but the Left are more organized and more violent. i.e. Black Panthers, EarthNow, ELF, ALF, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, Greenpeace, Green Scare, Weathermen and basically all Anarchists. The Unabomber was a Left Wing eco-nut who had Al Gore as his hero. Even the "Rev" Jim Jones was a Left winger.

Neither side wins with people like this.

[dustcurrington]

The Unabomber may have been an "eco-nut," but nobody who has read his "manifesto" would call him a leftist. He devotes large sections to criticism of political correctness, and suggests that the primary psychological motivations of leftists are inferiority feelings due to a lack of ability to go through the "power process," as well as over-socialization in an influential minority of leftists, particularly academics. He suggests that environmentalists should strictly avoid working with leftists.

[dhead22]

The NDSAP and the National Fascist Party did call for the murder of left wingers and in fact murdered them. The Friekorps (a reactionary group in 20s Germany from which the Nazis inherited a lot of leadership) murdered Rosa Luxembourg and tore apart the short lived Bavarian Soviet Republic. Conservatives typically are part of the state / traditional business interests and work through state violence or something like the Pinkertons during the turn of the century rather than mass action anyway.

[AntiCominternPakt]

Thank God for Hitler.

[combatfoot]

@AntiCominternPakt ???Dont even talk like that.Hitler is the wrost man ever made.

[Achrestensen]

yea and CNN and ABC is "fair and Balanced" right? WRONG! But jrrydha, you just made a real stupid. If people didn't like how Fox is run, then we wouldn't watch and they'd be out of jobs. So what's the problem? Seems fair that CNN can be left and Fox be Right.

[RocktheStageNYC]

exactly - the Left have CNN, PBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CBS all on their side - thats OK. The Right has Fox - and that's it. But to the Left that's one station too much.

Its interesting that FOX News has more viewers at 3am than CNN does at 8pm.

[padude64]

Hey Glenn beck! Why dont you tell the truth you sick idiot! You freak!

[kitten90390]

Also from what i have watched, i had not seen any lies, so he can not be lying if he is telling the truth, no matter how much it hurts you to know, you are not a free person.

[padude64]

Glen Beck is an asshole! The right wing asshole who shot 3 Pittsburgh cops needs to be put to death!

This asshole should not have had an assualt rifle and Glen Beck screw you!

[kitten90390]

Glen Beck had nothing to do with the person who shot the cops. From what i under stand there are a lot of other people who are not republican or conservative that shoot cops. The one kid because he was on medication and he had a lot of stress caused him to have a melt down. Its not the first time stuff like this happens. Its not even certain that it was over guns. It was on a very liberal new station where they said that this kids anger was because he thought they were taking away his guns.

[ivedigga]

Another right wing lowlife nut job soon to be ass raped in prison coming to a theater near you. Good night Dick hope you eat Dick soon, SHIT BAGS keep on taking the Police for granted.

When your on the ground bleeding from your Rectum because your Klan buddies raped you & your moms, I hope they turn on the flashers & laugh in your face & continue to eat their nice warn Krispy Kremes Drink a hot cup of Joe while you & the tramp that brought you into this world bleed out the ass clowns.

[padude64]

God! I agree with you 100 percent!

[bohemianh]

Is it racist just to state the facts, the coloreds make up most of the prison population in America? Many reasons for it sure. At the end of the day, who did the crime? Who does the time.

[newbutton7]

No it is not racism to state facts. The word facts is the very thing that send chill up and down liberal spines , lets face it they loathe the concept of facts. This coming from a Black man

[padude64]

dont tell that to a gay man!

[padude64]

I am white and love Obama you screwhead!

[padude64]

I am not black but your Bush killed many troops so you need to shut up!

[athews1976]

bloggers have been saying that these unscrupulous sociopaths at Fox News has been inciting violence long before the Richard Poplawski police shooting. Now all Fox News can do now is play like it's all just jealousy of these evil liberal bloggers. THEIR PREDICTION WAS RIGHT YOU IDIOTS! It's happening, Fox News is really pushing it. They've been pushing it for a long time; they're reaching the apex and there's a cliff over it.GET IT MOVING FOX! Their sheeple are going to have a hard withdrawal.

[quaffer22]

Are you Glenn Beck??

You sound like him !!

[quaffer22]

DavidNeiwert,

In your 'more info' description; You conveniently make example of a whackjob, that represents 1 out of 10 million people , and blame the media. This guy was a loon.

Why not make a better analysis that the media whipped up EVERY gullible left-wing imbecile in America, to vote for Obama.

Now there's REAL destructive influence.

[Clarissa2424]

Why is it that conservatives cannot seem to communicate these days without 'name-calling?'

I.E. 'whackjob,' 'loon,' 'imbecile' 'nut' etc.

Not good debating points. It must be intense frustration that cause you to vent your anger.

Here's hoping that people like that do not own an arsenal of weapons and are ardent fans of the emotional sensationalist Glenn Beck.

Really. Glenn Beck just wants to many money by stirring up frustrated people in a bad economy that America inherited from Bush.

[quaffer22]

Firstly: I call 'em, like I see 'em. And I see, quite well.

Secondly; I've never claimed to be, nor do I concider myself or my thinking to be "conservative". I align with NO party, wing, group or "ism".

3rd; Beck, like anyone, is to be taken at face value. He's doing what ratings tell him & his corperate exec's works & pays.

I'm by no means, a Beck fan.

[PFlaw317]

The so called 'left wing' did not elect Obama. America did. He was a candidate who transcended the normal 50/50 poloarization. Otherwise he wouldn't have carrid states like Indiana..he needed the help of independents and conservatives..and he got it.

[quaffer22]

"The so called 'left wing' did not elect Obama. America did. He was a candidate who transcended the normal 50/50 poloarization..."

Three factors:

Desperation to be rid of anything Bush [Rep's, Neo-Cons, Conservatives, LIARS, Warmongers, etc]

AND

The help of the media

AND

Racism.

THOSE are the reasons he won the election. None else!

The platform he based his win on, is already being shown to be a sham.

[PFlaw317]

"Desperation to be rid of anything Bush ect "

Uhh that kinda happens when you come off the worst admin in the modern era. The 06 primaries forcasted 2008..why so shocked..combine that with J.M/palin lmao..

"AND

The help of the media"

Like just about every other president in history? Media likes charismatic guy..wow go figure.

"AND

Racism."

Hehe ,funny you should mention that, the President did pretty well in most of the country, except down there in the good ole' South...

[quaffer22]

I wasn't going to waste any more time here, but I just couldn't resist poking you in the eye once more.

"charismatic guy" ?? lmwmfaro !!

His "charisma" lies in his HAND GESTURES.

He's a LAWYER !!

Get a sense of what REAL charisma is, please.

Your comment about "the south" is true, since it makes up the largest concentration of minorities.

I hope you people Obamabots enjoy the addidtional taxes he's imposing, the mandatory services and NEW wars.

hahahha

PS: JM is shnit too!

bye

[Byakamura]

Glenn Beck is responsible for so much violence. So are all the other right wing nutjobs. As the Republican party shrinnks the only people left are the extremists who are being called to "arms" by these opportunist nuts. It's scary.

Beck has blood on his hands.

[quaffer22]

Hey PARROT.

Provide just a few links of the violence you mention.

[padude64]

I want to debate Glenn Beck and I will crush the idiot!

[kitten90390]

I highly doubt that.

[Clarissa2424]

Beck makes his living promoting in the right-wing sensationalism on FOX.

Every right in this country comes with responsibility.

Gun ownership comes the responsibilities.

Free Speech comes with responsiblities.

Free Speech cannot be used to encite violence.

Guns cannot be used out of anger to senslessly cause harm.

Freedoms cost.

Just because American ancestors fought and gave their lives for the freedoms we have today, does not mean those freedoms can be use without responsibility.

[Clarissa2424]

" Poplawski avidly participate in white-supremacist online forums and right-wing conspiracy-theory sites, and consumed mainstream conservative media, particularly Fox." I AGREE.

Troubled young people often find a sense of belonging and an outlet for frustrations, fears, in consipracy groups. Many young people find solace and a sense of belonging by ascribing to a political group and consipiracy theories seem exciting and allow the young person to vent their frustrations in life

[quaffer22]

"Troubled young people often find a sense of belonging".

That's right!

They mainly join gangs or clubs. But we don't label their gangs as lefties or righties. So few youth belong to "extremist" groups, it's preposterous to claim otherwise. Let alone, watch the news!!

As for "ascribing to ANYTHING political" , is rediculous! Too few youth even have a sense of politics.

You FEW folks here just keep telling yourselves the nonsense you spout, and perhaps your beliefs might then seem real.

[Clarissa2424]

True quaffer, the majority of youth probably join "gangs or groups" in order to find a sense of belonging and outlet for emotions. That is why I said, "many" youth find solace in conspiracy theories - I did not say "all." Poplawski was an avid participant in political websites and he was not alone. No doubt, Fox is partisan and Beck preaches Obama Gun Laws and Fema Camps for sensational partisan objectives

It cannot be denied that Fox and other right wing here is a "growing" and noticeable

[Clarissa2424]

It cannot be denied that Fox and other right wing conspiracy theorists represent a "growing" type of "fear mongering" in order to turn the populace against the current administration, hoping to gain seats in the 2010 election. Politics of fear again.

The right wing KNOWS that fear is a powerful emotion and it can sway public opinion. (I.E. WMD's that the media and Bush Administration used to enter Iraq.

There will be NO gun laws in the near future - and Beck still insists on promoting it.
