Far-Right Activist Launches Nancy Pelosi And Harry Reid ‘Burn In Hell!’ Contest

One of the most notorious far-right activists is Randall Terry, who founded the organization Operation Rescue, a radical anti-choice group. In the past, Terry has warned that he and his followers would engage in terrorism unless Congress excludes funding for abortions in health care legislation, launched a “Defeat Sotomayor” campaign that depicted the Supreme Court judge as a skull-faced killer, and used the occasion of the assassination of George Tiller to declare that the doctor, who performed abortions, was a mass murderer.

In his latest attempt to drive attention to his hate-filled agenda, Terry has launched a contest to encourage people to make videos burning House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) in effigy. Randall Terry’s press release states:

Join a Contest! Win Prizes!

Who Can make the best “Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid BURN IN HELL!” video?

First prize: Expenses paid for weekend here in DC during Roe vs Wade anniversary, Jan 22-24, including pro-life training seminar (Includes travel stipend!), and full Insurrecta Nex television series. [...]

Send link of your video by NOVEMBER 15, 2009 to: Burninhell@overturnroe.com

Legal Mumbo Jumbo: Obey local laws on open flames; be careful; if under 18, do not burn Nancy Pelosi in effigy unless your mom or dad is with you, and gives you permission, and strikes the match; do not burn yourself; do not burn another human being; do not burn small animals; do not burn large animals; do not burn anyone from PETA; and remember: this is not a threat to Nancy Pelosi’s or Harry Reid’s person…it is a prophetic witness of what awaits them when they die if they do not repent for this horrific sin.

Randall also recorded a video demonstrating how to burn an effigy of Pelosi and Reid, telling the audience that “Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid will be waiting in Hell!” Watch it:

    He wants hell, it’s waiting for him. As the bible clearly states “Judge not lest ye be judged yourself”.

  5. mike from Arlington says:

    Haha.

    Could you imagine looking in your neighbors back yard and seeing this bozo burning crap back there. I think I’d install razor fitted barbed wire asap on the top of the fence between my house and his, along with a moat with alligators and possibly a trench with pit vipers.


  6. Leftside Annie says:

    Randall Terry is one twisted, ugly, sick bastard. He would have enjoyed being a Grand Inquisitor, I’m sure.


  7. EnnuiDivine says:

    It’s a real shame that “Legal Mumbo-Jumbo” can’t be stretched into considering this a THREAT against public figures.

    There’s no crime here, just hatred and hypocrisy..and a fair dose of idiocy, too. Does Randall Terry not know that Reid is ANTI-ABORTION?

    The tenents of his religion demand that Randall Terry will suffer eternal damnation for his biases, for his bigotry, for his hatred. The Christian thing to do would be to pray for the souls of your adversaries, not ask people to burn them in effigy.

    Schmuck.

    Randall Terry is a sterling example of white-wing insanity.

    I hope that the moron keeps pulling stunts like this, as well as all that Operation Rescue nonsense.

    He will help to ensure a progressive majority in this nation.

    What an a-hole!


  12. tom says:

    Randall Terry’s latest stunt is clear evidence of the Glenda Beck Effect. The loonies are playing “can you top this?” and egging each other on.


  13. DaveG says:

    “Could you imagine looking in your neighbors back yard and seeing this bozo burning crap back there.”

    yea, and he picked a fine time of year to set fire to something, in the middle of a yard full of dried fallen leaves. It would have been great to see his whole idiotic hate-porn go up in flames.

    Randall also recorded a video demonstrating how to burn an effigy of Pelosi and Reid, telling the audience that “Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid will be waiting in Hell!”………..And exactly who will they be waiting for? Maybe all the GNOP’s? But dont hold your breath that they will be there as there is no such place but in the minds of the small minded.


  17. Buckie Boy says:

    How much proof does one need to show that these scum bags are totally sick in the head.

    And, YES, this is THREAT to Pelosi and Reed.

    FBI take note of everyone that makes a video of this, THEY ARE TERRORISTS.

    Matthew 25:41: “Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

    They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

    He will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

    Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

    Conservatives try to spin this every which way, but the bottom line is that their Savior wanted them to do what was necessary to help the least among us. If you know that universal health care would improve the lives of 46 million of your fellow citizens, and you’re still against it, you’re just not a very good Christian, period. Of course, you’re not a very good person either, but that’s another issue.

  21. Shayne says:

    This is typical: set up someone for the focus and incitement of HATE, and reason no longer matters. It always amazes me how RIGHT WING talk radio sluffs off responsibility for particularly offensive statements by claiming it is only entertainment. How many of us are entertained be arousal of hatred and anger? What a statement of the mob lynching mentality of neo-republicans.

Lots of false prophets out there and a lot of blind sheep following them straight into the lake of fire.

    _____________________________________________________________

    This doesn’t matter in Terry’s world. All that matters is that Reid deserves to burn in hell because he hasn’t single-handedly reversed Roe v. Wade. Never mind that no Republican has, either — and that the Republican leadership is far more interested in keeping Roe v. Wade alive as a wedge issue than they are in actually reversing it.

    Randall Terry is Exhibit A in the parade of people who give Christianity a bad name.


  29. Shayne says:

  32. MCMetal says:

    Anyone who gives this yo-yo any type of credence whatsoever is similarly disturbed …..

    And be honest ; try to convince yourself that Terry doesn’t look like someone’s friendly neighborhood serial killer/mass murderer ………..


  33. ElBruce says:

    What does this have to do with any religious cause? And why does Terry target Democrats only? I think that people of faith should ask themselves whether this guy actually believes in anything or if he’s trying to twist religion into partisan vitriol.

    I think Jesus had some things to say about the eventual destination of people who do things like that…


  34. Bluedahlia says:

    Seriously, people like Randall Terry and the like are pandering to the least common denominator. That video was pathetic. Hence, pathetic people will jump on board. I find it sad that the “opposition” is so pathetic and laughable. Really. It was like it was made for America’s funniest, and couldn’t make it. Is this guy for real? I find it scary that society lets people like that run around like what they say is legitimate. Will no one say to his face, “You’re an idiot.”? Who validates these people? Come on…..


  35. Shayne says:

    OT – That a$$hole Chuck Todd on MSNBC was always ranting that the public option was dead. Where’s his apology now that he’s saying the public option is going to be in?

    Ho hum….another lunatic Republican foaming at the mouth spouting something that’s supposed to be incendiary. This kind of act has really lost its shock value. Once that fact sinks into their thick skulls we may see some truly ugly incident which will trigger a final furious backlash against these idiots.


  37. Bob says:

    I don’t think reasonable people do final furious backlashes. We just win because we are right. I always remember that our Nation’s first President, who thought of himself as an enlightenment liberal, would not allow his men to mistreat Hessians and Red Coats who had tortured and summarily executed American revolutionaries because he told his men “We have to stand for something.”

    Terry, I think, is doing the same thing Murdoch/Limbaugh does, they dont really care if the gop goes down in flames as long as they profit off the angry folks that feel disenfranchised.

    Palin is starting, or trying, I guess, to start a third party with the same old ‘values’ which they seem to happily ignore until its time to pin a scarlet letter on your opponent in order to demonize them.


  46. Rich H says:

    Seriously, can’t they just through this guy in jail? What further things does he have to do to confirm to the government that he is a home grown terrorist? He should be locked up, not allowed to communicate, and have the key thrown away.

    I’m sorry, but if I hear people tell other people, whether it be directly or indirectly, to “burn in hell”, it’s usually not followed by legalese, nor does it come from the mouth of someone who means no bodily harm to those their are cursing.

    In short: if you believe people entering this contest don’t wish death upon Reid or Pelosi, you need to revise your belief system.


  49. dasm says:

    “This is not a threat…”
    Oh, yes it is, you jerk. Saying it isn’t does not make your lying statement true.
    Terry is an American terrorist- he’s shown that on several occasions. I certainly hope he is being closely watched– if not arrested.

Still in drug-induced coma, thank God, while they try to get enough grafts going to give him half a chance… to suffer horribly for the rest of his life. Ain’t nothing entertaining or casual about burning in fire, Terry…

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randall_Terry#Tiller_killing

    When Kansas obstetrician George Tiller was killed while serving as an usher in his Wichita church on the morning of May 31, 2009, Terry immediately issued the following statement:
    “ George Tiller was a mass-murderer. We grieve for him that he did not have time to properly prepare his soul to face God. Unless some miracle happened, he left this life with his hands drenched with the innocent blood of tens of thousands of babies that he murdered. Surely there will be a dreadful accounting for what he has done. I believe George Tiller was one of the most evil men on the planet; every bit as vile as the Nazi war criminals who were hunted down, tried, and sentenced after they participated in the ‘legal’ murder of the Jews that fell into their hands. But even Mr. Tiller – like other murderers – deserved a trial of his peers, and a legal execution, not vigilante justice…. Our actions must be equal to this crime: we must continue with vigorous (yet peaceful) actions such as have been used by every social revolution since America’s birth….[19][20] ”

    On the same day, June 1, Terry released a video in which he called President Barack Obama and pro-choice politicians child killers, and described Tiller as a “mass murderer” who “reaped what he sowed.” He voiced regret that Tiller wasn’t able to “get things right with his maker” and that it was unfortunate that he didn’t get a “trial of a jury of his peers and to have a proper execution.”[21]

    Terry’s comments provoked a backlash. The Albany Times-Union, in an editorial, accused Terry of undermining the credibility of the “generally peaceful” anti-abortion movement, and Jacob Appel described Terry as “a George Lincoln Rockwell for the 21st century”.[22]

    But it’s ok to burn effigies of government officials in an attempt to incite violence threatening their lives???

    And you got the Gaul to call Tiller a killer (which he is not) while defending murder yourself Mr. Terry??

    What does that make you????

    This is a actually varies from translation to translation. For instance, The New English Bible (Cambridge University Press) doesn’t do verses, because the numbered verse structure in the Bible isn’t in the original or either Testament or the Apocrypha. However, the passage you note from Matthew in ‘Chapter 7′ is translated as, “Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged.”, with an immediatly following passage rendered as a separate sentence, “For as you judge others, so you yourself will be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.”

    OTOH, the same part of Matthew from the New Testament of the New Jerusalem Bible (Doubleday) is renders the above two passages as one, with different language; “Judge not and you will not be judged, because the judgements you give are the judgements you will get and the amount you measure out is the amount you will be given.”

    So, the sentiment is the same but the gramatical structure and syntax used by the two translating teams is quite different, with the only common phrase being ‘you will not be judged’. Those sorts of differences can be found in comparing any translations, and your rendering in comments 1 and 4 can probably be found for the ‘Judge not’ assertion, and express the sentiment more than adequately.

    As for attracting trolls, that’s not a bad thing. I like to preach at them, knowing full well that they can’t be argued with, but needing the practice in keeping my own arguments sharp; others prefer to use them for target practice in the old shitfling exercise.

    larkohio says:

    ——————————————————————————–

    Jesus said you should love your neighbor as yourself. Mr. Terry appears to have forgotten this.

    I don’t know that he’s necessarily forgotten this. I think it’s more of an indication of his self-loathing than anything else (a common condition amongst his ilk, it seems).

    Niner, I get your point and I wasn’t calling for any mistreatment, but how many times have “we” been right and still lost so much… Weren’t we right that our little action in Vietnam was a mistake? How many innocents died? Weren’t we right when we said supporting the Contra and training them in ways of carnage was wrong? Panama, Grenada? Iraq? Being right doesn’t seem to guarantee any sort of victory. Are we just hoping the Wing nuts burn themselves out?


  76. Perry logan says:

    I almost wish the Right weren’t such craven cowards.

    They could do what they obviously want to do: declare war on us and start shooting. Then the rest of us could take up arms and put them down. This would rid America of the parasite of conservatism forever…

    Just a dream. But you know that’s what this creepy minority want. They talk about it obsessively. Wingers declare war on liberals every five minutes…but never to our faces. ;)

    Conservatism in America is anti-liberal bigotry, nothing more. They are clearly trying to goad one another into starting a civil war.

    But, since there’s no way they would ever have the nerve, they content themselves with incessant badmouthing, and the occasional murder.


  77. Virtual Pebble says:

    @ 73. Oops. My opening comment should be “This passage actually…”. Got distracted in an editing pass and didn’t come back to the same point.

    @ 71 & 72. LividLib and Intrepid… Yeah, Terry has called himself a terrorist, but he’s actually a weenie and a provacateur. While he’ll get out front at a noise making event which draws cameras and newsidiots, I think he makes it a point to stay well away from the boyos that actually bomb and shoot doctors, nurses, and other people. He doesn’t have the courage of his convictions; he just has a big mouth and a willingness to push other people over the edge.

    I’m sure he’d blather on about his leadership responsibilities and duties etc etc, but the reality is that he’s a coward. He wouldn’t step up and put his butt on the line for anything.


  78. Marie says:

    Reasonable minds will eventually reach the point where people like Terry are marginalized, then ostracized — but hurry up, you guys! — the hatemongers are growing more dangerous every day.


  79. Marie says:

    Wait — my previous comment made a silly assumption that the Republican party, the “right-to-lifers,” the fundies, and the conservatives actually contain reasonable minds — I may have been too hasty.

    I hope they choke on their s’mores. Or in the case of the conservatives, no’mores.

    The Flush Limpdicks, Trannie Coulters, Terry Randalls, Pat Robertsons, Michele Bachmans, Laura Ingrams, Glen Becks, Sean Hannitys, Michelle Malkins, Jerry Falwells, James Dobsons, Brillos, Joe the nonplumbing tax-cheats, Caribou Barbies, and their dittoheads ARE the face of the contemporary Republic party.
    Even ole Newt is chastised as being a RINO by the Reichwingnutjob base,

    This is not about to change anytime soon.

    Bet he was whacking his willie while he watched the flames. What a sicko. You can really smell the Christian “love” wafting out of his yard.

    jb: “Are we just hoping the Wing nuts burn themselves out?”

    No. It’s a constant battle to counter their delusional opinions with facts and reasonable actions that people support.

    The Party of No and Fear are at it again!

    Terry The Terrorist:

    It’s YOUR gawd.

    They’re YOUR rules.

    _YOU_ BURN IN HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Good News!!!

    No, not the Randal Terry stuff. The good news is that we finally have a good reason to continue to use Guantanamo. We can throw Terry and his living dead cohorts in there and dare the Supreme Court to release them.


  89. jb says:

    Delusional people who have no desire to be reasonable will never respond to “a constant battle to counter their delusional opinions with facts and reasonable actions that people support”, so I guess we just try and limit the number and power of these Wingers. Meanwhile the GOP is more than willing to egg them on and use them to further their corporate agenda.


  90. FOIA Gras says:

    Broward County Republicans shooting opponents in effigy and now this? What is up with these “family values” people and their violent fantasies? Why can’t they just throw pies?


  91. junior says:

    Deranged and dangerous, his actions and rants are an affront to good family values, morals, and ethics. I hope no one is crazy enough to do his bidding.


  92. Bozo The Neoclown says:

    how very christian of them


  93. wolfsinger says:

    God.

    Their God.

    Only they have God in their pocket. At their Beck and call.

    Only they know God’s mind. And they do! Just ask them.

    Christians! Every one of them. Ask them. They’ll tell you.

    Their God is for Violence. Their God is for Hell! Their God loves hypocrisy, bearing false witness and hate.

    Their God only loves SOME of what he has created but definitely not ALL. Their God loves his “soldiers for God”. Their GOD love Power Over and not Power With.

    Their God is judgmental but, they prefer to do the judging for him because of course, they and only they know His Will and His Plan. Their God hates science, reason, equality, and free will.

    God! These Christian-right GOP thugs are depraved psychopaths who by the way, are happily and eagerly busy Re-Writing their God’s BIBLE because of course they can since — say it with me now—only THEY know His Will and His Plan.

    God, save us from your followers.


  94. shawnfassett says:

    Sounds like Randall Terry is sending out target instructions for the next Scott Roeder.


  95. Mark701 says:

    Randall Terry is a very sick and disturbed human being.


  96. maxfolger says:

    When this satire video about the GOP was produced a few months ago, it seemed far fetched. Not anymore.


    Take That, GOP

    (satire)

    ——————————————————————————–

    It’s a real shame that “Legal Mumbo-Jumbo” can’t be stretched into considering this a THREAT against public figures.

    There’s no crime here, just hatred and hypocrisy..and a fair dose of idiocy, too. Does Randall Terry not know that Reid is ANTI-ABORTION?

    The tenents of his religion demand that Randall Terry will suffer eternal damnation for his biases, for his bigotry, for his hatred. The Christian thing to do would be to pray for the souls of your adversaries, not ask people to burn them in effigy.

    Schmuck.

    Exactly… That’s why I feel embarrassed to call myself a Christian, because it’s people like him and pat robertson, etc that people think of when they think of Christian.
    Also, why do they make such a big deal about abortion being murder? If they really want to reduce the number of unwanted or unplanned pregnancies, they should be fighting for informative sex ed and access to information on birth control methods. But since they’re not, something makes me wonder if they are really just trying to bring back the 19th century where us women were considered property and had no rights of our own.

    Isn’t bringing baby dolls with their eyes stabbed out to town hall meetings enough?
    THIS GUY IS NUTTIER THAN A CAN OF PEANUTS!!!
