Beck Slams Mizzou Protesters for Complaining Paris Attacks Are Stealing Spotlight
KELLY: “Millions across the world have expressed solidarity with the French people. But some here in the United States express frustration complaining that the terror attack in Paris appear to be stealing the media spotlight from allegations of racial discrimination and unfairness on the campus of the University of Missouri. One supporter of the Mizzou protest tweeted, quote, ‘interesting how the news reports are covering the Paris terrorist attacks but said nothing about the terrorist attack at #Mizzou.' Glenn Beck is back with us now. So bad were a couple of these tweets, Glenn, that the university came out and said, these are not from inside the Mizzou community. We don’t really know who these people are. And yet there have been at least a couple, including one from DeRay McKesson, who is supporter of —“ [crosstalk]
BECK: “But we didn’t —“
KELLY: “— The Black Lives Matter —“
BECK: “We didn’t know who is —“
KELLY: “— who says, look there’s no rank order to injustice. You can keep all these in mind simultaneously.”
BECK: “We — we — I just want you to know that we also didn’t know who is driving the truck. We also don’t know who said used the “n” word and yet, somebody lost their job over it. What kind of double standard is this? The tweets are outrageous. And you know, it shows you that their agenda matters. Black lives matter. If black lives matter, they’d be in Chicago right now and raising hell over the 9-year-old that was killed in cold blood, lured into an alley and killed in cold blood last week. So it’s not black lives matter. I don’t even think it’s lives matter. It is just agenda matters. Let me give you this. This comes from the African Black Coalition created in 2003 to spread through the California university system. They just wrote a new article and posted it, a new constitution or a bullet. Let me just give you a couple of lines from it. We do not have the right— do we not have the right to abolish the laws that oppress us? It’s time we demand a new constitution or tell America that she’ll get the bullet. If America doesn’t protect us, then it’s our human right to defend ourselves by any means necessary. Our human right to overthrow a government that’s been destructive to our people. We must pick up where the Black Panthers left off and declare a new constitution or it will be the bullet. What’s happening in our university system is being led by the professors and the leftists and the anarchists and the socialists in our university system. It’s how revolution always happens. They seed it in the universities. We have got to find our way to each other in universities because I really truly believe 2016 is going to look an awful lot like 1968.”
KELLY: “Glenn, thank you.”
BECK: “Thank you.”
