Glenn Beck calls on the feds to order Marines to end Occupy Wall Street (video)
by Pamela Powers Hannley on Oct. 10, 2011, under Capitalism, corporatists, Free Speech, jobs, organizing, Politics, Trickle Down EconomicsOK, I know Glenn Beck is nuts, but millions of people listen to him… unfortunately.
On his radio show today, Beck called the Occupy Wall Street protesters dangerous revolutionaries who want to take down the US government. He asked the federal government to shut down the Occupy demonstrations by sending in the Marines and called on capitalists and Democrats not to trust the protesters or work with them.
From the Huffington Post…
Speaking on his radio show Monday, Beck made his already-crystal-clear disdain for the protests, which have spread across the U.S., even more plain. He took a slightly surprising turn, though, in warning establishment Democrats like Nancy Pelosi (who has voiced her support for the movement) as well as any rich backers of the protests not to trust anyone in Occupy Wall Street…
“Capitalists, if you think that you can play footsies with these people, you’re wrong. They will come for you and drag you into the streets and kill you…they’re Marxist radicals…these guys are worse than Robespierre from the French Revolution…they’ll kill everybody.”
