(Start listening at the 21:15 mark)

And of course, after that, he says, "I'm not saying someone should go kill him...I just wish God would do it..."

Maybe the Secret Service needs to pay this jackass a little visit...?

[That Is Quite Enough]

1. Sounds like another case for re-education. Who wants to go round him up?

I'm sure we can find room in the FEMA camps for another lost soul.

2. Don't forget your taser

:evilgrin:

[That Is Quite Enough]

5. Haha, yeah. In all seriousness - this guy is a goon.

Someone better keep an eye on this instigator.

[FiveGoodMen]

3. God damn Steven Anderson

That is all.

[tbyg52]

4. But, but.... Life begins at conception!

Oh, I forgot - they're no longer interested after birth.....

6. how does one abort a 47 year old man? n/t

[JVS]

7. Flame me if you must, but abortion after the 191st trimester is just unacceptable!

[ourbluenation]

8. Tee hee - honestly, these people. you can't make this shit up. n/t

[EOTE]

9. This is as serious as it gets.

Does somebody have that link to report people to the Secret Service? He DEFINITELY needs to be reported. Even if the ass doesn't plan on doing anything himself, the people who cling to his every word might. This is WAY over the line.

16. Here's the number to the Secret Service field office in Phoenix

[phone]

[aquart]

10. Sounds like a death threat to me.

And the Secret Service DEFINITELY needs to have a pointed discussion with him.

on edit: and put him on the No Fly List. Just because.

[ejpoeta]

11. boy! jesus would be proud, wouldn't he. do these people even

LISTEN to what they are friggin saying!

[Catshrink]

12. "Will someone rid us of this meddlesome priest?"

That was all it took, or so the story goes. Anderson is inviting a visit from the Secret Service.

[derby378]

13. A Thomas Becket reference!

Love it! :rofl:

[Catshrink]

15. Yeah -- must be the book I just finished reading.

There was a brief passage in it about Henry and Becket. I'm too lazy to read "real" history, well, not always, but I really enjoy Edward Rutherford's novels. I just finished "The Princes of Ireland."
I know, TMI.

Glad someone got it. I think there are a large number this reference could be applied to but no, I'm certainly not advocating violence against them -- unlike that Anderson jerk.

[spanone]

14. i believe that is a threat against the President.

[marmar]

17. More murderous wishes from those who purport to love Juheezus.

:freak:

[derby378]

18. The problem isn't religion - it's dogma

I see this same authoritarian nonsense from fascists and communists alike. The Khmer Rouge was nothing but dogma, and look at how many of their fellow Cambodians died by their hand.

[RainDog]

19. he's a filthy sack of scum. he's no christian

the leaders of christian churches across this nation should respond to what this jackass said. it's worthless hate mongers like him who make people paint all christians as worthless.

in this case, if other christian leaders remain silent - they are worthless.

this follows Ralph Reed defending torture last week.

isn't it possible for some council of churches to issue a statement of their beliefs about torture and religious leaders in the U.S. calling for a fatwa on the president?

[Initech]

20. Pro lifers wanting to kill people, base level irony but I like it.

[The Magistrate]

21. That Is One Hell Of A Rant, Sir

This fellow is complete and utter scum....

[derby378]

22. Amen to that

Angry pastor with a chip on his shoulder, hardline religious dogma, and possible anti-Semitic leanings? This is gonna end well.

[The Magistrate]

23. Racist, Sir, Anti-Semitic, Sexist, Seditionist, Whipping His Congregation To Violence

The man makes one sympathize with the officialdom of old Rome....
