if full-scale vioence erupts at the town hall meetings, should loud-mouths like pawn vanity, mush bimbo, glen feck, bald levin, and others be held accountable and be arrested?? i personally think they should be sent to prison. i just wish guantanamo was still open so that they could be sent there... after all, they like it, right? hush bimbo equates it to a vacation spot...

7. well that's just neat. these loud-mouths continue to stoke the flames of their repoopligan thugs
if you listened to these troublemaking asses like bimbo, vanity, feck, bald levin, and others, they almost sound like leaders of terrorist groups sending instructions and teaching materials to their minions. i for one personally think they should be arrested for inciting riots. they ultimately will be responsible if something terrible were to happen at these events.

14. Psst.
I think you're trying too hard. Take it down a notch or two. If you've been told we're a bunch of reactionary thugs who are dedicated to only our party or it's talking points you are sadly mistaken.

When you come to DU you are coming to a place with some scary smart and very reflective people, try to remember that in the future.

We believe in the American Ideal. We believe in the truth here, no matter the voice that utters it.

Do your homework.

9. I think the FCC should be advised to shut them down. They're
terrorists and should be treated as such.

12. absolutely!
i personally think mush bimbo should be sent to gitmo because time after time he said that gitmo is a vacation paradise. gitmo should be reopen if only hush bimbo is to be sent there. well maybe add in all the other nazi loud-mouths who thought the same way.

Charged..maybe....but the radio stations broadcasting
their vitriol should have their licenses challenged and revoked.

15. that too will be good. i just hope and pray nothing happens at these town halls.
because if something did, God-forbid, the blood would be on these malcontents' hands. this is their primary way of making a living: a couple of high school dropouts who have gone into the business of stoking people into a psychotic violent frenzy. disgusting and disgrace to humanity.

17. No
unless they were inciting the protesters to specific forms of violence then they have committed no crime.

Heated rhetoric is defended by the constitution.

21. If it can be proven legally that they incited violence then I say yes.
The mere fact that they are saying stupid things on the radio is not quite enough to cleanly convict. Tom Metzger was convicted because a case was made against him that linked him to the killings that his disciples engaged in at his prompting. Now could cases be made against these people? Possibly, but the fact of the matter is that it is a court of law that has to make those decisions. Meanwhile we can try to sway things in the court of monetary opinion by appealing to sponsors such as the case where 3 of Becks sponsors pulled out because they did not want to be associated with his brand of asshattery.

25. Incitement to riot and incitement to commit murder come to mind.
And yes, Gitmo and waterboarding also come to mind.
