Glenn Beck likes to bring his gun to the movies.
This afternoon, the Senate defeated an amendment sponsored by Sen. John Thune (R-SD) that would have allowed individuals with concealed carry gun permits to carry firearms into another state. Later on Fox News, Glenn Beck interviewed Thune to discuss the measure. “We’re going to disagree,” Beck warned Thune, but later, he made sure to present his gun-totin’ bona fides. “I’m a gun owner, and I’m a member of the NRA, and I am a concealed weapons permit holder. So, I mean, I love guns!” Beck boasted. He then aired a clip of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg criticizing concealed carry laws. “They’ll be able to go to the movies with guns and there will be nothing that our police officers can do about it,” Bloomberg complained. Beck then mocked Bloomberg’s concern:
BECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!

Glenn Beck likes to bring his gun to the movies.
– - Uh huh. And I’m sure he loves to butter his own popcorn too, ifyaknowwhatImean.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:10 pmI think it may become necessary to carry weapons everywhere you go in America just to defend yourself against the fascist wingnuts.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:11 pmThat twerp shouldn’t be boasting about carrying a gun, it might give a right minded person an idea…what a schlub
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:12 pmGee, did the theater have a sign that said: no concealed weapons allowed?
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:15 pmWho in their right mind would liscence Beck to carry a weapon? This guy is insane and should not be allowed to even own a gun, much less conceal and carry one.
Beck is surprised he didn’t kill anybody because he really wanted to.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:15 pmBECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!
To Beck’s relief, the crowd was all-white.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:18 pmI didn’t kill anybody!
~Beck
Not this time, but it’s only a matter of time before this mouthbreather does.
Beck is not mentally qualified to hold as much as a plastic knife in public.

Yeah , because you were all alone watching your gay midget porno , moron……….

Transformers? Harry Potter? Public enemies?
Sheesh…

Why would anyone feel the need to carry a loaded weapon into a theater ?
Especially an absolute MORON like Glenn Beck ; what if the gun accidently discharged ?
There is a very real possibility of an absolute tragedy occurring that was easily preventable ………
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:23 pm@Cicero: Would you want to sit in a movie theater with Glen Beck holding a gun, just to prove that the Bill of Rights is absolute?
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:23 pmFirst its the movies. It won’t be long before these yahoos are on patrol, demanding birth certificates.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:24 pmSorry Glenn, going to the drive-in doesn’t cut it.
BTW do you have one of those signs that say “I carry a concealed weapon and it’s been ‘x’ days since I shot somebody, just to see them die”?
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:25 pmBECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody! ……Yet!
It’s a sickness that is a disgrace to this country and humanity.

Good thing you do Glenny boy, I think there are a lot of folks out there who would like a piece of your gutless ass!
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:33 pmAs unstable as Beck is he might just start shooting at people on the screen. What an ASS.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:33 pmGlenn Beck loves guns!
And we all thought he was a total hater!
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:35 pmOh that’s just a librul myth. Guns never accidentally discharge.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:36 pmReal Republicans don’t like nuts bringing guns to theaters.
Just ask Abe Lincoln.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:36 pmUnless a person is insecure and paranoid – why in heck would they need to carry a gun to the movies?! Beck is at a all new level of crazy – just when I thought he couldn’t go any higher on the crazy scale!
Sweet Jeezis now other wingnuts will hear this and think – hmmm, maybe I should do the same thing?! Folks be careful don’t talk during the movie – you might get shot!? More shyte to worry about.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:40 pmI shudder to think Glen Beck even has a gun.
He has alrady proved his instability with this clip

July 22nd, 2009 at 6:41 pmI don’t know what world these people live in, I have never owned a handgun, and have never carried one around with me, and surprise, surprise I am still alive and have never been shot at.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:42 pmI bet Beck didn’t take a gun to the movies. He just made that up on the spur of the moment because he was trying to be all manly and stuff. He’s such a liar.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:42 pmCicero says:

Generally speaking, those who have gone through the process of getting a concealed carry permit are much less likely to subsequently commit crimes.

Yeah , I’m sure the 32 people killed and the 25 wounded at Virginia Tech would readily agree with you , you moron…….
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:43 pmWith a little luck Beck may manage to shoot himself.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:45 pmGee, perhaps I should seek to understand this issue better. Maybe I’ll invite Becky to go hunting with me. I just hope I don’t mistake him for a big, chubby woodchuck. That would be terrible…

There goes Beck again! Faking compassion, faking passion, and making up a story that he brought a gun to the movies this past weekend just to make a ridiculous point.
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:59 pmBECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!
Me: I went out drinking last night and got totally s***faced. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!

July 22nd, 2009 at 7:21 pmThis twit could have that gun taken from him and have it used against him…….mmmmmmmmm
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:22 pmGlenn Beck is one of the worst actors on TV. He’s is fake. He is a liar.
I’ve seen lots of bad acting in my life (having worked in theatre and TV behind the scenes in NYC for years) and he is one of the worst I’ve ever seen.
O’Lielly actually fakes it better than Glenn “Cry Me A Boehner” Beck.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:26 pmI bet I could take the gun off this bi-polar, alcoholic drama queen in three moves in a dark theater.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:26 pmLeaving aside the fact that Becky’s mental health issues should bar him from gun ownership; if the theater has a sign that says “Guns are not allowed on this premises”, Becky broke the law. But I guess it’s O.K. to break the law while the Dems are in control.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:27 pmI’ll bet he carriers a high priced hand gun when he goes to the movies. Now that he has told the world that he is packing, he’ll need two body guards to protect someone from ripping his high priced hand gun off him. First rule to having a concealed weapon… Don’t show and tell, you idiot.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:29 pmI used to enjoy fantasies of pistol whipping Freud before everybody started doing it. Pistol whipping Beck (in my imagination) sounds like a healthy response to any and all news from his Royal Wackiness. He’s a dangerous charlatan.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:29 pmAll snarking about Beck aside, it wasn’t a particularly brilliant comment by Mayor Bloomberg. I mean, seriously, that’s the worst case scenario he could come up with in regard to loose carry requirements in other states?
He should have stuck with the remark he made to TP:
Movies? Really?
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:32 pmWhat he left out:
The gun was wedged in his ass.
You’d have to be one of the world’s biggest pussy-cowards, to think you needed to take a gun to the movies.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:39 pmI don’t see it as a violation of the 10th amendment. What about the Full Faith and Credit clause? It applies to marriage licenses and drivers licenses but not other licenses?
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:40 pmGlen go to NYC with your little shooter; shoot yourself in the….; join Plaxico in the New Jersey Giants Hall of Fame. Maybe get some jail time too!
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:41 pmIt would not surprise me if many of the radical right wing pundits carry weapons with them at all times. When you advocate violence for a living, you eventually piss someone off that might just be willing to take the law into their own hands.

July 22nd, 2009 at 7:54 pmI would think that anyone with a history of drug or alcohol
abuse would be forbidden from aquiring a conceal carry permit.
Especially someone calling for revolution against the government.
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:59 pmMCMetal says:
Relevance? Especially since Cho did not even have a concealed carry permit?
The problem here was (largely) a failing of the federal and state laws concerning the instant check. This was swiftly closed to much fanfare and with the support of both the Brady Campaign and the NRA.
Still, the fact remains that concealed carry permit holders, as a group, are less likely to commit crimes than the population as a whole. You might not like this fact, but that’s your problem.

July 22nd, 2009 at 8:32 pmNO glen, the amazing thing is that you didnt get shot and killed. Either by yourself or a “real american.” I bet he carries a gun because he is at his core a coward and could not defend himself in a fist fight like a real man. I repeat, chicken hawk coward.
July 22nd, 2009 at 8:33 pmWell, CCwetc, I’m a lifelong gun owner, shooter, and hunter. I think that a rational approach to gun ownership would be a one size fits all. All gun, and accessory, purchases should meet the stringent standards typical of a “conceal/carry permit”.

Beck carrying a gun? Hey beck you dickwad liberals are not wingnut extremist like the people that you preach your bullsht to. We are the sane people in this country. Beck if someone wanted to get to you they would. There are alot of rooftops on 6th avenue. Your little hand gun wont help you if some nutjob has a high powered rifle with a scope outside of 30 rock. I think hes trying to send a message to his wacky audience. Get a gun and a license to carry that gun.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:09 pmFor his own good I hope he doesn’t go see the Deer Hunter. The idiot would probably try to reenact the Russian Roulette scene with an automatic pistol
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:12 pmconservative guy,
As a civilized citizen of a civilized country I’ve never felt the need to carry a weapon among my fellow citizens. I own guns but only carry them when I feel a need to eat a wild critter that can outrun me.
I do have some questions though.
Don’t you think that it would be a good idea to only sell weapons and ammo to those who qualify for a conceal/carry permit or some national standard? Should there not be a national standard and database to track those ineligible for gun ownership? Do you think that anyone who can’t meet the standard of your conceal/carry permit should be allowed to purchase deadly weapons?
I’m not trying to bait you and I thank you for your reply.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:14 pmconservative guy says:
As a concealed carry permit holder I carry all the time. I carry to the movies or when I go out to eat. You never know when you might have to confront a pesky liberal.
Tough talk from the guy sitting at his computer instead of serving in the military in his hero Bush’s debacle in Iraq
And we all know the loser with an inferiority complex would scream running from the room at the first sign of any trouble and probably shoot himself in his body part he is most rightful to feel inferior about.

July 22nd, 2009 at 9:20 pmMaybe we’ll get lucky and while he’s busy wacking off to the porno he’ll shoot his eraser nub off!!!
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:24 pmI might add that, if one really want’s to scare the crap out of any possible threat? Don’t stick a pistol in your pocket. Carry a 12 gauge pump shotgun, proudly, in your hands. You don’t even need to load it. Any time you feel threatened just work the slide. I feel very confident in predicting you will never have a problem with “pesky liberals”.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:25 pmYes, because it’s such a good idea that if State A won’t give you a gun, you can always go to State B and then bring it back. /snark.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:44 pmdear glenda becky,
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:51 pmeventhough we all know you’re a big scardypants crybaby, you may want to consider going to a different movie theater if the one you’re currentloy going to is so dangerous you feel the need to carry a gun there.
“And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!” – Beck
That IS a surprise, given this man’s mental instability & hysterical hatred.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:59 pmGlen Beck is an idiot. For great new blog check out: http://WWW.plainnews.blogspot.com
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:02 pmI for one am a little freaked out just imagining anyone sitting beside me in a movie theatre, or any other public place where just about any idiot could be carrying a concealed weapon and accidentally discharge it (as per post 24) or if it doesn’t get discharged, the same idiot goes to a bar after the show and has a few drinks, etc, etc. I mean jeez, no matter how careful a gun carrier is or how respectable he or she might be, accidents happen. Just ask Cheney’s hunting partner if accidents happen.
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:04 pmI had the misfortune of hearing Beck today. He was mocking children whose families could not afford health care. How does the sorry bastard stay on the air?
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:20 pmtbrantz says:
…accidents happen. Just ask Cheney’s hunting partner if accidents happen.
I must quibble. The unintentional discharge of a weapon is more than an accident. It is, or should be, an act of criminal negligence.
And I’m not greatly concerned with a concealed weapon discharging and hurting someone. It’s very hard to discharge a modern weapon without intentionally firing it, Plaxico Buriss notwithstanding.
I am far more concerned with a nut like Becky having a GET OFF MY PHONE moment and blowing some poor innocent away because he had the gun handy. Also, since it’s damned uncomfortable to carry a concealed weapon, I’m concerned about these weapons being left in desks, cars, and other unsecured places.
Largely because I’m a gun owner, I strongly believe that all guns should be under lock and key unless there’s an intent to use them.
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:27 pmBeck rakes in millions a year, he hasn’t been to a public theater in probably 10+ years.
Go get drunk and play in traffic beck, you neocon pussy.
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:28 pmWhen I was in the army, our Drill Sargent made it QUITE clear which was our “gun” and which was our “weapon” . . . I have no problem with Becky fondling his “gun” in the back row of some peepshow . . . just leave his weapon at home, securely locked away.
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:31 pm“BECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!”
Just think, if someone in that theater would have jumped up at Beck and said, “I’m an Obama supporter”. We could have seen Beck go off in handcuffs and looking at life in prison….. Pity….
I would have to guess that most of the gun nuts or in hillbilly land. Where I live. The thing is there are not many armed robberies or anything with a gun around here. When something like that happens, everyone knows about it and who was involved.
One of my friends that is a republican has a concealed weapons permit. He claims that he got the permit for protection. Yet, there is hardly any crime around here. When there is a crime you can almost bet it’s a school kid in toruble for being out past curfew…..
I understand the 2nd Amendment gives the right to bear arms. It gives the hillbillies a sense of security. I guess they think that they could fight the biggest and most advanced army if the government became oppressive. Maybe what happens in the movies can happen in real life. You know at the end of, “Saving Private Ryan”, Tom Hanks is shotting the tanks with a handgun and the tank blows up. “But it looked so real PA.”
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:31 pmHaving the highest amount of murders says something about our current laws on guns.
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:37 pmfirst of all the U.S does not have the highest rate of myrder. several eastern european countries have a much much higher rate of murder. secondly there are far more contributing factors in the murder rate than gun ownership. Drug trafficking/gang violence account for a vast majority of our violence and murder. plus guns are not the only weapons used. and I will throw in the fact of a lax justice system for violent criminals. Same guys keep killing over and over.
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:55 pmBen’s need for a surrogate phallis speaks volumes about his insecurity and weenieness.
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:59 pmThe 2nd Amendment is about the ability of states to have armed militias. It’s original intent was as a check on the unfettered power of the federal government.
Never intended to guarantee a right to an assault rifle, unless said weapon was needed in the context of a militia.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:02 amBeck is so unstable, I’d be more worried about being witness to Beck shooting himself in the mouth, than seeing him shoot someone else.
That, and getting Beck goo on me.
Ick.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:02 amWas it some kind of slip when Beck said “I’m a gun owner, and I’m a member of the NRA, and I am a concealed weapons permit holder. So, I mean, I love guns!”
That is, he’s admitting that it isn’t about safety. Rather it is about an insane obsession with carrying a gun – which opens the door to all sorts of deeper psychological meanings.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:12 amhttp://www.nytimes.com/1990/12/31/nyregion/youth-charged-in-shootout-at-godfather-movie-on-li.html
“He said the shooting at the theater started after seven to 10 youths arrived late and chatted with one another throughout the show in the Sunrise Cinema complex in Valley Stream, L.I.
“The people were annoyed by the noise created,” Sergeant Cocks said.
The teen-age group soon got into a shouting match with another group of about six youths, he said. Detective Cocks said at least 25 shots were fired. The rest of the audience ducked under their seats in the darkened theater as the movie kept on rolling.”
http://www.nytimes.com/1993/10/17/nyregion/theater-shooting-raises-security-concerns.html
The police said the shootout in the Metropolitan began at 10:40 P.M. Friday, during the last screening of “Judgment Night,” an action movie about urban violence that stars Emilio Estevez. The gunfight, they said, erupted after a fist fight broke out at the front of the theater between 19-year-old Lakeem Sules and an unidentified person. Bystanders Injured
Mr. Sules, of 446 Kingston Avenue in the East Flatbush section of Brooklyn, was shot to death, and two other men and a woman sitting in the theater were injured by the gunfire. The person who had scuffled with Mr. Sules has not been found and the police do not know if that person fired the shots.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:15 amIf Glen Beck carries a gun, it’s probably because of the number of people he has offended. I wonder what kind of places he and Bill O’Reilly usually habg out at? Remember Bill O’s comments about the resaturant Harlem?
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:22 amValid points, Stagoculus. But try looking at things this way.
The U.S. has a higher rate of mass murder by firearm than any other civilized nation. Considering that those countries with more restrictive firearm ownership laws have fewer incidents of mass murder by firearm, is it not realistic to make a correlation?
There’s a vast area between unregulated firearm purchase and outright bans. I’m not a big fan of bans and don’t see a whole lot of support for them. On the other hand, I think that the only sane approach is to establish a national standard and database so that convicted criminals and mental patients, like Becky, can’t pack heat on our streets and public squares.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:34 amWay to go Glenn. I applaud you! I too have a conceal/carry permit and I too have my handgun with me at the theater.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:50 amJust because I’m at the theater doesn’t mean that someone won’t come in and begin hurting me and my friends or loved ones with me. And it doesn’t mean that some criminal with no regard for human life won’t come in and just start harming or killing people. Too many times people are killed by some idiot all drugged up or psychotic, or any number of other reasons and if someone with the right training, carrying their firearm beacause they have the legal right to were there, lives could have been saved and the situation turned around where the actual bad guy paid the price. I have a permit and I will excersize my right to protect myself if unfortunately a situation like that arises. Far too many people seem to feel that it’s better to take the guns away from the law abiding citizen, which unfortunately leaves the criminals with the upper hand. I know this will get alot of negative response based on what I’ve read here and based on what seems to be alot of anti-gun people (or maybe it’s just anti Beck people) :) One thing is for sure. I know I’m not paranoid or any other comment some will want to use against me, but I do know that if anyone ever attacks me or my family with a gun or any other instrument (if I’m there with them at the time) I will at least have a fighting chance to defend ourselves with a firearm if the situation warrants it, and for that I can thank our second ammendment.
I am sure all of the Baboon’s coworkers are sleeping much better tonight knowing that they work next to a *sniff, sniff* gun tottin’ paranoid moron expecting President Obama to come and take his security blanket away.
I am also *surprised, surprised* the Baboon didn’t shoot the telephone the other day.
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:58 amFBI data shows that if you have a gun, it is far more likely to hurt one of your family than to protect your family. Domestic violence, accidents, and suicide. Sorry, but that is reality—not Charles Bronson or Jodie Foster shooting the bad guys. That is fiction.
Hey, we’re better than Bulgaria! Hip hip hooray!!!!!!!!!

In order for you to make any sense, all other developed countries would have to be free of gangs and drugs. They are not. You would be surprized if you ever got out. Our justice system is lax? Compared to Saudi Arabia, maybe—not any other developed country.

Don’t underestimate him, Keith — Beck is batshit insane!
Zooey, I never had too many psych classes, but I thought looney tunes was on the level of batshit insane. :)
Hey, I can say “batshit”!
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:35 amHe needed to defend himself from the pop corn machine, gigantic soft drinks and crazy corn dogs.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:36 amHey, I got an alter-ego.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:38 amBECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!
The month isn’t over.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:38 amNope, just the same name apparently.

“Looney tunes” is a bit more benign than batshit insane. It’s all very technical. ;)
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:41 amKeith,
Wouldn’t your alter-ego be htieK? :D

“If Glenn Beck carries a gun, it’s probably because of the number of people he has offended.”
That’s what I call perception.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:44 amYou ever heard of llykej .rd ?
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:45 amI am just glad no one shot me when I was acting like a teenage jackass at the movies…

No, but I’m acquainted with Mr Hyde. I like to take him to the movies.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:49 amGee, Kind of makes one wonder if Glenn totes his pop gun at work.
You think FOX would mind if Beck packs his piece on company property? Doesn’t Glenn feel he has the right to pack his piece (concealed) while he works at FOX. After all FOX does employ many unsavory types?
And then there is packing your piece at funerals. Now that is the rage!
Try carrying your concealed weapon to the tanning salon while you tan.
Of course there is Beck’s constitutional right to carry a concealed weapon on any airline(s) he flys.
Oh, Beck should try to use his constitutional right to concealed carry when he visits the CIA, FBI, White House, or even the local police Dept. I’m sure they all will accomedate Beck and his concealed piece.
I just don’t think Belvue mental hospital will allow Beck his carry rights once admitted.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:50 amAhhhhh, it’s so nice to hang out here with the basically normal people.
The freaks are hanging out on the abortion thread. Of course, I was there for a while, so I may qualify as a freak. :-D
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:50 amOy, speak of freaks, and they will appear…

Much be a punchline for that somewhere.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:51 amI’ve heard and known many who have been mugged wwhile carrying a piece.
They told me it was a matter of being drawn down on first.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:52 amI have never heard of an armless man getting mugged but then again I have never ever met anyone who was mugged regardless of the presence or absense of forelimbs

You can have my share of the butter delivery system, db.
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:59 amI have a presentation to give in 6 hours so I am going sans butter. I wonder if I should take a hand gun with me to my meeting. You never know when some disgruntled curriculum developer might put myself and my loved ones at risk I suppose…
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:03 amGotta keep those meetings moving at a decent pace, db. Just show ‘em your rocket launcher.
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:07 amwas that a euphamism?
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:09 amI had a feeling that was coming…
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:10 ameuphemism
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:10 amHee hee…
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:10 amThat was tooo easy!
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:11 amI usually wait until the second date for that…
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:11 amSoall I have to do is get through this presentation, hack up a few fish and then it is a 10 days of vaca! Whoot!
Are you going somewhere fun, db?
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:12 amAnother euphemism, Keith? ;)
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:16 amWhere would someone like me go Zooey? Sure. Absolutely. Body Surfing at night is the shits…

July 23rd, 2009 at 2:28 amdhov sez: but I do know that if anyone ever attacks me or my family with a gun or any other instrument (if I’m there with them at the time) I will at least have a fighting chance to defend ourselves
Who the hell do you think you are–Wyatt Earp? This is not the OK Corral–and besides, you would probably take out several innocent bystanders in the process. Leave the law enforcement to the police…that’s what they’re for. Otherwise, it would just be a shoot-’em-up free-for-all. It’s 2009, not the first days of the Wild West, Mr. Trigger-Happy.
July 23rd, 2009 at 4:23 amHere’s something gun proponents are sure to ignore.
Recent historical research indicates that the Second Amendment was passed, not to preserve our freedom, but to help the Southern states keep control over their slaves.
This means gun proponents have it 180 degrees wrong. The Second Amendment represents slavery, not freedom:
Second Amendment Rooted in Southern States’ Control of Slavery, Academic Experts Say
http://www.vpc.org/press/9805bog.htm
This helps explain why gun proponents from Glen Beck to StormFront always use the same arguments–and are almost always white guys. ;)
July 23rd, 2009 at 5:56 am..so sad that he didn’t bring a brain with him..
July 23rd, 2009 at 6:58 amWhy do some guys feel they need to carry a gun (and brag about it!)? Hmmm…probably for the same reason they need to get a high-horsepower car. It’s all to make up for the lack of something else.
July 23rd, 2009 at 7:44 amIt’s too bad he didn’t make like a football player and shoot himself. It would have been a great day for humanity…

July 23rd, 2009 at 8:44 amOh, big tough TV hosts and senators.
“A local Tae Kwon Do master was beaten down by a Fox News pundit today. The pundit was unharmed and fought in his suit.”
July 23rd, 2009 at 9:15 amHey Beck. The next time you carry a gun into a movie theatre, conveniently place said gun to your tempo and conveniently kill yourself with it.
July 23rd, 2009 at 10:32 amWHY does this lunatic qualify for a concealment permit?
Beck’s mother and brother committed suicide which would lead one to believe there is MENTAL ILLNESS in Beck’s immediate family . .
I’d like to see his NYS Application for Weapon Concealment Permit . .
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:27 pmHmmmmm whether to be the shooter or the shootee…THAT is the question!
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:51 pmIn Utah proud gun owners are shooting it out in the street at midnight, as they vie to see who is the real neighborhood protector. Will the guy who was trying to protect his daughter end up getting charged because he didn’t have a conceal permit, but the other guy did? Read the story to see how crazy it is getting. href=”http://www.sltrib.com/ci_12890747?source=most_viewed”>
July 23rd, 2009 at 1:11 pmI’ve noticed that almost all the cable news “infotainment” personalities including Beck, O’Reilley, Matthews, Olberman, Schultz, Hannity, et al, all seem to have one thing in common: they all seem juvenile and even childish at times. Although Beck is the worst, mocking, temper tantrums, name-calling, intolerance, rudeness with guests (Matthews is one of the worst about interrupting and talking over them), quoting out of context, gushing over guests (again, Matthews is terrible about this, too), and even making things up are characteristics of most of them. Even though I include MSNBC people in the list, at least their excesses seem to be more fact-based than the constant barrage of heavily conservative misinformation on Fox. Beck needs a leash and a muzzle.

July 23rd, 2009 at 5:12 pmWell come on Think Progress,investigate to see if this blowhard even has a carry permit or even owns a gun. Las Vegas odds say 5-1 against.

Actually, Wyatt Earp as lawman of Dodge City, Kansas, used to enforce the town ordinance prohibiting firearms.
dbadass and Zooey got voted down for saying goodnite? Doesn’t make any sense. But then, trolls never do.
July 23rd, 2009 at 6:16 pmYou never know who has a gun that is why it is a concealed weapon. I never leave home without mine. I am lucky enough to live in Florida where you have the right to stand your ground and protect yourself and you family. I say good for Glenn.
July 27th, 2009 at 4:51 pmI think it is so funny how that man behind the podium actually believes that CROOKS WILL TRY TO REGISTER FOR GUNS! Theives do not register for guns, law abiding citizens register for guns! It is astonishing how people believe that it is the law abiding citizen if American exercizing their 2nd ammendment right to guns is the radical who is going to walk into a holocost museum and shoot! (BTW – that man was a LEFT WING RADICAL who hates FOX news, hates the bible, hates christians)! I also think it is laughable how people who don’t even listen to glenn beck would make such hatefull comments, but I guess you “sheeple” only follow your great shephard Obama as he too likes to call people STUPID without knowing the facts!
July 28th, 2009 at 1:58 pmIT’S REASSURING TO SEE THAT MOST OF YOU DEEP THINKERS ARE ABLE TO REMAIN RAZOR SHARP AND PICK RIGHT UP ON THE POINT OF THE PIECE THAT WAS BEING DONE. CONGRATS. HOW MANY OF YOU WERE WRITING YOUR NAMES IN THE SNOW AS YOU WERE PEEING WHILE WATCHING TV AS WELL? IMPRESSIVE. AFTER GETTING BLINDSIDED, WHICH ONE WILL BE THE FIRST TO SAY, “THEY CANT DO THAT TO US….WE’RE AMERICANS!” WELL, MAYBE EXTINCTION ISN’T SUCH A BAD IDEA AFTERALL- GOOD LUCK BEDWETTERS
