Limbaugh advocates assassinations of politicians
Caught a little bit of the Pigboy while I was running some errands. He was talking about the exchange between Senator Feinstein and T-Bagger Cruz. After his normal bullshit about how "liberals see the Constitution as freedom limiting" and other such crap, he said; that's what the 2ND Amendment is for...it's to protect the citizens from Senator Feinstein deciding what books they can read..it's to protect from Mayor Doomberg (sic) telling us what we can eat and drink".
I was ****ing floored! I don't care how hard Limbaugh tries to backtrack, or polish that turd, he's basically telling the crazed mouthbreathers in his audience that shooting fairly and democratically elected politicians you disagree with is how you protect your freedoms.
Now anyone with even 1/4 of a brain can understand that he is talking about tyranny and using illustratons but that of course rules out most of the DUmp.

1. That's a bit of a reach....
Just sayin'
Bad DUmbass,how dare you actually think.

5. A reach?
That we have the right to guns to get rid of or threaten pesky politicians? I think he made himself clear on that one. I'm sure he'd balk if some had said the 2nd Amendment was about silencing douchebag, lying, radio pie-holes.

7. First off, it's his usual schtick....
Secondly, he would just claim that the guns were to protect people from the laws they pass, etc....
He's always quite careful to not actually incriminate himself when he spouts such nonsense.

15. His Meaning is Unmistakably Clear Nonetheless
He might be staying within the letter of the law, but there is no mistaking his meaning.
This is more stochastic terrorism, like what led to Gabrielle Giffords getting shot.
By a deranged leftist.

2. He is a danger to society.
What should be done with him?
I have some ideas, but they'd probably get hidden...

4. Ya...what else could he have meant by the 2nd Amendment?
I KNEW he was stupid enough to say something like that...so glad he finally did. Rush calling for Tea Baggers to take up arms against the government, priceless.
You cretins carrying on this way in front of normal people is better then priceless.

9. Rush has said that MANY times.
I suspect that's what he was really saying above. He's not quite dumb enough to advocate shooting politicians directly, but he has no problem advocating for the shooting of police officers who may be sent to enforce those politicians laws. When he talks about "protecting yourself from the government", that's usually what he's talking about.

11. 'Assassinations' and 'protecting yourself from the govt' are not the same thing.
I hope he really did **** up and say something that completely stupid.
You are going to be bitterly disappointed when sane people laugh at you.

13. Coasting on the edge
That's about as close to the edge of asking for his crazy audience to kill someone as he can come without going over.
I wish our society didn't tolerate this, it is beyond free speech, it's dangerous and threatening.
I wish society didn`t tolerate the likes of you useless,mewling leeches but it does.
Be happy for it because in the leftist dictatorship you crave they might be kind enough to shoot you before they covered the ditch you are thrown in with dirt.
