Now the right is calling for a Civil War.
Ok I don't know much about this whacko, other than what I have been told and what I have read. I do not listen to his show, but apparently it is quite popular amongst the far, far right in this country. Anyway I read the transcript of his show today, and he was all over the place blaming Sanders for the shooting today and then he says that a civil war is coming. He says that the right wing is getting to their boiling point and they are going to start killing people soon. I am not hyperbolizing here. That is apparently what he said. This man is calling for a civil war because one person, who says he was a Bernie Sanders supporter, went on a shooting spree. Did Rachel Maddow call for a civil war when Gabrielle Giffords was shot in Arizona or did the left go crazy and start calling for blood and right wingers heads when Dylan Roof - a white supremacist, walked in a African American church in South Carolina and executed 9 innocent people in an act of terrorism? Of course not. We reacted rationally and called for gun control, more focus on domestic terrorism groups, and basically reflected on where our country was heading.
But one man from the left, if that is accurate, commits a mass shooting and suddenly battle lines are being drawn and conservatives are calling for the deaths of Liberals all over the country.
I am just telling you guys that you can think I am crazy all you want to. You can say, "ZZ go have a beer and shut up." That is fine. I can have this post removed by the owners of this site, true enough. But are we just going to sit back and wait to be slaughtered? I never thought I would say this but there needs to be some sensible restrictions to the First Amendment. Like other countries when you deliver this kind of hate speech over the radio, you need to be locked the hell up. Canada has limitations, as does England. And you know what, there people are not being denied their liberty or freedom. It's a sensible thing to do.
Maybe we also need to revisit the idea of whether we should allow this kind of crap on the radio at all. This man is inciting violence and as all of us know these people that listen to this show are well armed to the teeth and are not afraid to use their guns to commit violence.
The left acts rationally in the face of white nationalists attacks, like the one that just happened in Oregon. But you guys can expect more of those kinds of attacks in the near future, I am just saying. Some people may want to look into arming themselves. I am not calling for violence, but some people on DU are living in areas of the country where we are not going to be protected, and so it's something that I am going to consider and I have never previously owned a gun or even thought about owning a gun.
Anyway, screw this guy Savage. I hope he gets what's coming to him one day, and he is fired and loses all of his resources and has to be out there begging in the street, since other people have told me that he likes to make fun of the poor. F*ck you you piece of shit.
Everybody on the left, all progressives, just think about arming yourself. I hate to say that and I know it is not popular opinion, but as we know we really have few alternatives as even relying on the police has not worked well for some of us on the left, especially PoC.
= new reply since forum marked as read
Hey FUCKING ASSHOLE SAVAGE WEINER, where were you when 20 children and 6 teachers were murdered at school? You laughed your ass off and called it a false flag! Where were you when Greg Gianforte body slammed a reporter? You laughed your ass off and called for more journalists to be assaulted! And we're the violent ones? Go fuck yourselves! 
I wonder why?
