It doesn't end with the rally, just like Sarah Palin didn't end with the 2008 elections. I think this was a test from the right. It's like dropping something small into a placid lake and seeing how far out the ripples will go. The far right is playing with fire ... driving a wedge between cultures, ethnicities, and religions.

Does anybody ever wonder how people could live with their neighbors for years, decades, even centuries... then almost overnight, they're killing each other over ethnicity, past slights? I'm thinking of Rwanda, Yugoslavia ... but then you are probably thinking, that happened over there. WE are DIFFERENT. We aren't that different.

Obviously, folks have the right to peacefully assemble, but the place and time chosen for this event is pretty disgusting, and gratuitously provocative. So to my neighbors of all races, I'd just like to apologize for the white folk who make us all look like we're living in 1964 Alabama.

He's not even a particularly good Christian.

Well, you're right bc he's Mormon, not a real Christian.

But, he could easily attract the disaffected, white supremacists, skinheads, unemployed factory workers & unskilled laborers in general ... not to mention the disgruntled middle class ...

I don't assume all muslims are terrorists, or all blonds are dumb, or all white people are glenn beck supporters. I assume others see that support for political issues is not linked to the color of one's skin or religion or hair color any other distinguishing characteristic.

I reread my post and nowhere do I see the word "apology". I am not apologizing for Bech because there is no need to do so. He and his supporters have the same right toassemble as the supporters of MLK's "I Have A Dream Speech." I think MLK would also have supported Becj's right to speak and his supporters to assemble because he was for "Equality" not "Special Treatment."

Huh??? Apology is the 7th word of the post and Sorry is the first word of the title. It sure sounded like an apology to me.

In this country "Freedom of Speech" is a guaranteed Constitutional right even if you don't like what is being said. Glen Beck, et. al, have as much right to speak and assemble as do MLK group. Shame on you for wanting to take away someone else's rights by trying to be so damn politically correct.

My post in in italics and as I count the 7th word is "is" and, again, the word "apology" does not appear. There is nothing in my post that sounds even remotely apologetic because there is nothing to apologize for becaue Beck, Palin, Sharpton, and you have have guananteed free speech. It does help if one actually knows to which post one is responding. Otherwise, it makes the responder look like a fool.
