Glenn Beck and Family Attacked in New York’s Bryant Park

When I compare states, I dont compare budgets, or Governors, or voting...I compare the ACTUAL people that live there. What is tolerated and what is not. How people treat each other. I could care less about the government...that's not a reflection of the people that live there. The government is the minority of the state, they trick the masses into voting for them and then carry on their personal agenda.

It's the people that live in these states. The mentality of the south and midwest (for the most part) SUCKS! Passive aggressive racism, segregation, fat, lazy, war hungry, and the acceptance of these behaviors...is SHOCKING! When I watch Fox News I realize where its coming from...or at least feeding the problem.

He was heckled plain and simple. Anyone who uses a platform that reaches millions of people for the purpose of promoting opinions should expect as much. I've seen it on both sides of the spectrum.

Also, it reeks of hypocrisy in here.

yeah it reeks of hypocrisy when those who condemn violence also support it.

What violence are you speaking of?

Specifically.

It never ceases to amuse me how easily and voluntarily people describe themselves as "conservatives" or "lefties" or "liberals".

I can't believe anyone on this site would fall for that, are you really *that* stupid ? That's how they keep you from uniting as one people. Wake up ffs.

It's pretty easy to tell now a days. Liberals are like a parasite that open themselves up for infection, they are not all infected but they are prone to being infected, just compare it to it herpes.

i defintely agree when you are on national televion you are subject to criticism and cries of injustices by the naysayers and oppositionists.given the circumstances it was obvious they knew she was going to get up and clean herself off and they knew she would leave of course and even waited until she was out of view and earshot so we have to thank them for being considerately jerky gentlemen but if it was me what is a little wine on a woman when it could just be an accident in her mind ?i dont like glenn beck cuz he cries and he mixes a little poison in with the truth so personally alot of really bad things have happened to me so i think its safe to say he was pretty lucky he wasnt hung in the park or at least [my favorite]tar and feathered.must have been a horrible experience for someone who gets a facial evermorning and wears a pink nightgown.i dont pity da fool he is like the crap that sticks to the bottom of the toilet and wont go away be sure to hear about this on his show how he ''was victimized'

Hmm heckling is hardly being attacked, maybe verbally attacked. But the whole title is a too misleading for my taste. IMHO this person deserved what he got, he is a media puppet who needs to brought down a peg or two. He can dish it out but not receive it.

Glenn seems to be an egotistical little man, maybe even a sociopath, fighting against some kind of guilt or trauma. What he provides as "fact" would get many diagnosed with schizophrenia. He shows a calm front, all the while allowing his anger to boil. The rage that exploded on this tape was that bottled up frustration. He has shown to be a brown nose as well. He thinks himself better, believing himself the messiah. Hes guy with billboard material.

Ar you serious? Conservative are free and clear from actions of intolerance?

Heckling and finger pointing is hardly an attack. The man spewed hate daily ...or heckled the american people behind the shield of a camera.

....daddy why are the bad people doing that??

The man constantly flip flops on issues to the point where he was a completely different person 2 years ago. He tells half truths while working only for the highest bidder and has absolutely no care for this country or its population. What did he think was going to happen? Did he expect those people to walk up to him and bow down and hand him cookies? The man is a traitor to this nation and he and his family deserved every minute of this.

Oh boo hoo.

It's what he gets for spouting his nonsense over the years.

He'll spin this whole incident into yet another liberal/socialist bashing thing and his stupid ass followers will do the same.

Beck can still atone for his sins, he should immediately hand over another personal check in the amount of $20,000,000 in tithes to his beloved Mormon cult, like he has done in the past. They have assured him, that God will protect him, and he will be greatly rewarded for this, in this and the afterlife.

The wine was obviously divine intervention... The Mormon God and the prophets were very unhappy with his wife's complaints about the tithes Beck has given the Mormon church.

Really?! you are attacking his belief system?

Not really, I'm genuinely fascinated with his belief that through the Mormon church he can buy his way into heaven in the afterlife, purchase salvation, glory, and into righteousness in the service of God in this life.

Speaks volumes about this man, far beyond anything else he has said or done, in my opinion.

I know I am wrong to say "every religion" here but, every religion has some sort of tithing or money collection system in place. How do you think they survive? If nobody was giving money to say the Catholic Church, where would they get the cash to build churches? And like I said there may be some religions out there that do not have any sort of money collection going on, but if so I do not know of them. I do not buy into any religion's point of view so this is not some attempt to defend religions, it is me pointing out the fact that to single out a religion and make fun of it for collecting money is rather odd.

They weren't attacked. They had wine thrown on them, and they were heckled.

Did he think he wouldn't draw attention?

He knows who he is right?

Throwing wine on his wife is assault, end of story.

I cannot believe that you defend this. Your hatred is blinding you.

And what's worse is, someone starred your post.

edit on 29-6-2011 by mishigas because: (no reason given)

Perfectly said! I wasn't gonna post cause i am sick of being attacked on here for my own personal opinion in which people seem to think is wrong these days(so if anyone has something negative to say to me just don't bother because you will NOT get a rise out of me)....but what i don't get is what do people hate about him the most?

The fact that everything he has been trying to warn people about over the last couple years or more has been coming true??

Common people...don't hate the messenger...maybe soon they will see he was trying to help us NOT Fear monger!

Peace, and Love to all
