Glenn Beck Says Family Harassed In Bryant Park: 'It Was A Hostile Situation'
Source: Huffington Post
Glenn Beck went to Bryant Park Monday night for a showing of Alfred Hitchock's "The 39 Steps". But that was not the only showing he saw.
"It was a hostile situation," Beck described of his family's movie night; his wife, Tanya, had wine "kicked intentionally on to her back," leaving her "completely wet," he said on his radio show Tuesday morning. He further said that his wife and daughter were greeted by a man pointing his fingers and yelling "We hate conservatives here!" when they got up to use the restroom.
"If I had suggested -- and I almost did -- wow, does anybody have a rope? Because there's a tree here. You could just lynch me. And I think there would've been a couple in the crowd that would've!" The conservative radio-host recalled.
"I apologize to anybody who had their movie experience wrecked because of the people that found it so necessary to spew hatred," Beck said, "but there's nothing I can do about it."

As was said before-as you reap so shall ye sow...
And I think you were treated kindly compared to the hate you spew on a daily basis.
In the depression era kids threw rocks at the rich peoples cars..I totally get it now.

Really not a lot I can say.

B-b-but, it's the Rethuglicans who are trying to foment violence!
:mental:

Kinda sounds like the haters didn't do much to Beck himself...they had to go after the wife and child. Much safer targets and all that, don't you know? :thatsright: ::)

I watched the episode today and all I have to say is PLEASE ****ING TRY THAT SHIT WITH ME, you Damn Fascists! I'm as much of a confrontational asshole (when it comes to shit like this) in real life as I am on the boards. TRY IT! I'm in the Augusta, GA area. We're the Fascists? YOU idiots are the ones talking about killing a man JUST for his opinion!
G-- DAMN! I hate ****ing liberals! :censored:
Has someone e-mailed Glenn this shit? Skinner, you should be ****ing ASHAMED of the people you nurture. :bird:
-
About the time I think they can't go any lower, they prove me wrong. Such hatred they have in their hearts for anyone who doesn't think like them. God forbid someone should have an opinion different from theirs, even IF they think the person's message is "hateful". I think a lot of their rhetoric is hateful (this thread for instance that actually advocates for someone's death and attacks his family...his DAUGHTER who aren't responsible for his FREE SPEECH) but I'd never in a million years call for their death. I wouldn't wish for anyone's death. Well, Hitler if he was still alive.
Oh, and to the DUmmie who tries to justify the contradiction (evidently you think you're compassionate) you people do this kind of stuff all the time. Why do you think the 1st Amendment only applies to you? Or perhaps you think we should just do away with it so you can silence those who disagree. You people are vile and hateful! I hope someone's capturing this thread.

I'm sorry, but I'm f'n ready. I'm seeing shit in Greece, about to happen in the UK, and flash mobs here, that I can guarantee are being orchestrated, and I'm thinking it's going down. As I stated on my sports board:
They're getting brazen. This is what will push us to the next civil war. ...they just don't realize that they're outnumbered and outgunned. It will not turn out too well for them. They are calling for Glenn Beck's death ONLY because he has a differing opinion.
Hey, you lib *****, I hold the SAME opinion. Come get me.
Oh, and don't come unarmed. I need the sport.
Shit is getting real. These libs REALLY don't know what the hell they're getting themselves into, but they'll soon learn. I can't help but see this as a global Marxist uprising. Someone PLEASE tell me how I'm wrong.

I'm sure all of you never would have opened your mouth if someone were open carrying. Bunch of ****ing pussies.

Conservatives wouldn't have to be carrying. These pussies lack the "Fight" reaction in the "Fight of Flight" situation. It's why they have to travel in packs like monkeys.
Hey libs, I don't "flight" and I know you hate it, but neither did Beck.

I'm sorry, people, but I read these mental patients' responses on a daily basis and this one just has me f'n SEETHING!

55. Too ****ing bad
He thinks he can live in New York, insult liberals day in and day out - call us traitors and nazis and thinks he can wander around this very blue city with no blowback? I've been to those Bryant Park movies and they're a lot of fun. If I were there I would have called him a pig to his face and in front of his family.
All conservatives should leave NYC and leave it to Saudi airline pilots.

51. I say this is bullshit. No evidence this happened
and if if it did happen, I have no sympathy for Beck.
This is a guy who has made his millions demonizing the less fortunate, mocking the poor and the handicapped. This is a guy who had no problem personalizing disagreements with antiwar activists and encouraging his audience to harass them in the leadup to the Iraq war. This is a guy who couldn't get enough of airing misleading clips of ACORN workers, causing lives to be ruined. And he's been borderline stalking Francis Fox Piven for months, leading to the poor woman getting death threats.
This after post upon post yammering about how Beck "lies and spews hate" and so forth. None of this is true, you DUmbasses don't even watch, you just make stuff up.
ACORN tapes misleading? Nope, it's right there in black and white, it's not our fault these scumbags had no problem with child prostitution. Talk about a "ruined life."
I'm just glad we have the DUmpster and the DUFUs to highlight this shit to the rest of the world. This is what a liberal looks like. Anybody wanna join up with them?

Really not a lot I can say.
Compare this with the Prosser thread, where the DUmmie said that conservative brains are motivated by fear, which lead Prosser to choke a dear, sweet, innocent "progressive" judge. I would say that it is clearly liberal minds that are fear-based, which causes them to lash out at people merely for having a different opinion, but that would assume they have minds to begin with.

I think Beck conducted himself admirably. I know the quickest way to piss off my husband is to mess with me or the kids

DUmbasses, you really need to be careful what you wish for. The day you push decent, hard working, God fearing, civilized human beings into a corner where the only obstacle between them and safety is you will be the day you get to experience all of the violence and chaos you have been clamoring for all these years.
Only it won't play out in reality like it does in the movie that runs through your head.
I promise you, DUmbasses, that if you continue on this path, the blood you will finally taste will be your own.
Think long and hard, children...

Try to recall that you said that, when you are standing with your back to a bullet-pocked wall and offered a blindfold by whichever extreme eventually seizes power, should enough Americans start thinking like you.

Ammo is not a problem with me. I reload.

Glenn Beck is a very smart man, a calculating man.
He could not possibly have gone into a setting like that without knowing, with near certainty, how those New York animals would react.
It was like wearing Lady Gaga's meat dress into a lion cage.
Staying away from gatherings like that is a price of being a political celebrity, and he knew that, so I have to believe it was show prep.
The New York savages just performed as expected, on cue. I am really surprised he'd put his family into that situation.

If that is true, then Beck would have been smart enough to have some hired security nearby just in case things got too dangerous.

I'll take Beck's word over those goons. Beck, Maddow, and any other American should be able to come and go as they wish. This is America.
Hey DUmmies, Rosie O'Donnell could plop her fat ass at the Evans Amphitheater for movie night and not hear one comment. We don't do that on the right. We don't harass people. We don't throw pies at people. We don't show up at opponents conventions and shout them down like you goons. We have better things to do, not the mention, we don't try to silence you a**holes.

I was thinking the same thing. Still, if it's me, I don't think I would have put any of my family in danger. Don't care if I got a division of Marines as security, that is just something I won't do. :fuelfire:

14. Dear Glenn,
Edited on Tue Jun-28-11 06:28 PM by cstanleytech
If the story is true then I offer up an apology as most of us liberals (you know, the ones you are always attacking on your shows) are actually very considerate people, perhaps you might wish to keep that in mind before you yourself spew forth your own hatred.
:rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:
Here is what some of those considerate and loving lefties said,
I know some of them have been posted already but, I'm making a point. :-)

That last one gets me. The goon says it takes courage in response to the world would be a far better place if they decapitated Beck. Sounds to me like a call for violence.

How about the lives you've ruined by spewing hatred, you miserable drunken moron.

I listen to him fairly regularly and I haven't heard anything come from his mouth that comes even close to the hatred I see at DU daily.

60. This Is Just Sad
I don't know - I'm no fan of Glenn Beck and in fact I disagree with what he stands for but what is this country turning into when people behave this way in front of the man's children? Beck and his wife are one thing but when you involve his small children, it turns into something totally different.
This is an incident his young children may remember their entire lives and can we really live with that?
If you can, then I feel sorry for you. I cannot. There are more of us than there of his type. We do not win the long battle by behaving like animals. We win in the long run by acting like decent people and convincing others that that way of thinking is outdated and not good for the people of this country.
Wouldn't we be throwing a fit if someone treated Rachel this way? Yes, we would. To me, this is akin to when we dance on someone's grave whom we don't agree with. It might make you feel better for the minute but in the long run, if you are a decent person you would feel bad.
We only lower ourselves to the republicans' level when we act like this. I am embarrassed for our party when there are people who who behave this way.
No you don't lower yourself to Republican levels when you do that shit, in general republicans don't pull shit like this.

62. Beck was being a drama queen again-his bodyguards hassled people
-----
Just a quick FYI -saw your article on Mr. Beck and his numerous FALSE claims about the way that he was treated at Bryant Park last night. Myself and several of my friends were seated immediately behind Mr. Beck & co (have pictures) and I can tell you that while the crowd was certainly not *thrilled* that he had shown up, his family was left completely alone, and for the most part he was too. Conversely, it was his security detail (two body guards) that seemed to be unnecessarily prickly with the crowd, scolding myself and my friends for acrobatics and other harmless activities taking place well before the movie started, and contributing to a considerably less relaxed atmosphere than is typically experienced during BPMN (I've been going for about six years now).
It was my friend that spilled the glass of wine on Tanya -and I can assure you that it was a complete accident. A happy one, to be sure, but nonetheless a complete and utter accident. As soon as the wine spilled (and I question how Tanya became soaked from a half glass of wine) apologies were made and my friends pretty much scrambled to give Tanya & co napkins -no doubt aware that it would look terrible and that their actions could be perceived as purposeful. No words were exchanged after that, as I think that it became pretty clear to Beck & co that my friends and I were doing everything in our capacity to help clean the "mess".
I'm sure it's unnecessary to point out the hypocrisy in Glen's statements that we were being hateful. I can assure him that we don't need his sympathy. Incidentally, none of us have made a career of "spewing hate" on the radio, or any other media platform. We live our lives intolerant only of those who don't tolerate: We have chosen New York as our city for that very reason. We do things like go to Bryant Park Movie Night, and vote to legalize gay marriage. We don't taunt Glen, or his family. And we certainly don't waste our wine, even on Tanya.
Thanks, and please let me know if you have further questions.

64. NiceTry
This Lindsey Piscitell has basically been discredited and shown to be a liar apparently through some tweets she sent out saying that she was sitting near them and talking of "accidentally" spilling wine on his family. She got her 15 minutes of fame and it's not working out too well for her.
What I'm saying is that we need to stop acting like animals and quit playing games. Unemployment, poverty, and unpaid-for wars are devastating this country; not people like Glenn Beck. To be sure, he's someone I disagree with and I have chosen to not watch him or listen to him, but he's not the problem. Unemployment, poverty, and unpaid-for wars are.
Somehow I think that person won't last long at the DUmp.
I believe you have to think Beck is the Anti-Christ if you want to post there.
