When a white male Authoritarian like Beck speaks(yells) at a woman like that, ...
it's only a matter of time until he hits a woman.

Screaming at a woman in that fashion is eerily similar to hitting a woman.

ALL men need to understand that it is 100% unacceptable to EVER scream at a woman.

Beck is a fascist pig, a white supremacist and a bully to women.

And a fucking disgrace of a human being.

1. How about nobody screams at anybody.
But I truly believe that Beck is just an act. He has to scream and rant like his fellow actor, Alex Jones. Nobody would watch them if they acted like normal human beings.

9. Alex Jones is another screamer. Thanks for bringing him up too.
AJ's psychosis rivals Beck's.

2 hate filled peas in a pod.

Peace

17. dunno, but he's a drunk, so verbal violence is one of his well honed
communication techniques. ANd his crap is not unprecidented -- O'Really yelled at a 9/11 victims son to "SHUT UP!!!! JUST SHUT UP!!!"

3. Verbal abuse can be just as damaging as physical abuse.
That said, if I ever saw a woman pushing one of my nieces around, I'd scream at her.

4. So men can scream at men but not at women? Or is it never okay to scream at anyone?

8. Either is an improvement. One more so than the other.

10. I'm a little bit confused. If screaming at a man is fine, screaming at a woman is also fine.
Either that, or it's never okay to scream at anyone.

I'm not understanding why the OP thinks men can never scream at women.

11. I don't think the former denies the latter
I don't think the former denies the latter, merely makes no mention of it... maybe the second is a lesson for another time.

13. Anybody with an ounce of sense can tell that the OP sets up suspicion of a double standard.
Whether that was by accident or on purpose is still unknown.

5. I suspect he doesn't have any trouble striking women.
He doesn't have an shard of decency in him, which is why he fits in so well at FOX.

6. I dislike Beck as much as anybody, but that's a ridiculous assumption.
Glen Beck is an entertainer.

More specifically, he makes money by stirring people up.

His little tirade was no more a harbinger of eventual physical abuse of women than a community theater actor's Three Musketeers performance is a harbinger of eventual murder by sword.


...and I'd disagree that it's "100% unacceptable to EVER scream at a woman". I suppose one could argue that screaming rarely accomplishes anything, but screaming can be an "acceptable" means of getting one's point across, regardless of the gender of the person being screamed at.

7. He wouldn't scream at anyone if they were standing in front of him
Edited on Fri Jul-17-09 05:08 PM by lunatica
He's a big man when his opponents can't reach out and slap the shit out of him. I suspect he's quite a cowardly little man.

12. You assume that those of us who have just tuned in know what you're talking about.
Do you have a link to something, a video maybe? Thanks.

15. Is it 100% unacceptable for a woman to yell at a man? or a man at a man? or a woman at a woman?


What about non-white males yelling at women?



Or is your disgust at yelling only applied in the narrow case of man-yelling-at-woman?


Just trying to find out the parameters of your yelling=hitting theory.

19. Your absolutist approach does not stand up to substitution
Are we allowed to scream and even drown out the Coultergiest?

Do ALL women need to understand that it is 100% unacceptable to EVER scream at a man? If not why the unequal treatment.

21. Further proof of his cowardice. Beck, Limbaugh, Orally...
all are such tough-talking chicken shit cowards.

They are broadcst bullies who lack the balls, courage or integrity to go one on one, face to face with anyone.
Their bravado is bolstered by their distance from the intended target.

Put Beck face to face with one of his hated targets and he would prove to the world George Carlin's theory that the further one is to a perceived asshole, the louder one yells at the asshole. Put the tough-guy next to the "asshole" and tough guy shows he knows how to whisper!

A pure chicken-shit gutless coward. Well paid media whore, but a coward none the less.
