35wailen, I wasn't referring to the name calling, just the comments prior to that but not the tone.
Glenn Beck and 2A

If you want to split hairs and become nice to save your thread from getting locked, how bout you go remove where you falsely called me a troll. Frankly I think you and Boba have already guaranteed that it will be locked by the tone YOU took with me.
Glenn Beck has always been a guns right supporter. He has been a speaker at the NRA convention for the last 4 years. Always been 2A....
Just some THE members just don't like Fox and support the other side.
Some posters are subversive..it would be like calling the POPE a Moslem...

What exactly is your point? Other than you don't like the guy. If you don't watch his show how would you have the slightest idea what his stance is on any issue?rm23, we've been talking about his TV program all through this thread and not his book. Nice try at a diversion.
Funny that you quoted where I said that Glenn "only became "pro gun" in the last year or two." Hey rm, that book was only published 5 months ago, so thanks for helping to prove my point.
Not trying to be mean but you don't seem to have much in the way of facts to back up what you say...

Do me a favor 35wailen. Answer the following questions and maybe, just maybe, we won't think your just a Troll as your many contradictory posts indicate:
1) Post evidence to back up your claim of his previous stance that was not pro-2A.
2) Post evidence to back up your claim that he only recently purchased some firearms.
You haven't done this. Instead, when someone mentions that Beck devotes a chapter in his new book on 2A, you say:
Yeah, you hung in there and defended your viewpoint with more jabberwocky.

I think I already did that. I said I didn't mean to do any name calling. I think that is uncalled for.

35wailen:
Glenn Beck was not the subject of this thread until you derailed it. This was a thread about a 2nd Amendment discussion on his show. Since you did not watch his show, you don't have anything to contribute, so why don't you exit stage left before it gets locked.

Might I suggest you watch the program this weekend, at least the beginning part about the 2nd Amendment and come back and post your comments about it then? No sarcasm meant.
Like I already said, I don't pay for cable/satellite. I would probably enjoy the program, and if pieces of it turn up in video form on the internet, I would probably enjoy that too. I like seeing the second amendment being supported. I still don't trust entertainment TV personalities though.
I disagree. Glenn Beck has definitely gathered a group of people together that think a little bit differently than the Limbaugh/Hannity/O'Reilly crowd. I think he's turned some of their fans into a different sort of direction. He is always recommending reading the constitution and books written about the constitution. I might say constructionist in some ways. He's certainly changing people's minds and doesn't seem to be all about any party line. There are plenty of panderers out there and I would name them by name but I don't want to argue about them. Beck certainly isn't one of them. Not even close.
Like him or dislike him and politics aside, he at least tries to get people to read and understand our constitution. That's ALWAYS a good thing regardless of whether you're a conservative or liberal or whatnot. The more people we can get to sit down for a while and read anything about our history, the less likely we are to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Oh, and he has a pretty good 2A chapter in "Arguing With Idiots". Some of the stuff in that chapter reads almost word for word from what a lot of us have to say on THR.

The subject was the 2nd Amendment or rather the airing of a discussion of it and since I am the OP I should know. The fact it was on his program is irrelevant, at least to me. I would have posted it no matter what program it was on.
This one certainly went downhill quickly.
