Can Flush Limpbough be charged for the crime of attempting to incite riot?

He needs to have his car burned and his windows broken, wonder if he would have the people arrested? He's an idiot.

He's a crazy criminal.

Rush doesn't believe that laws apply to Republicans.

I indeed wonder what his exit strategery is. (Or how he missed the part that that was not a word but a parody....)

But have a little compassion, people. He didn't get to go to Vietnam, so he has this unfulfilled desire for war, operations and... er, strategeries.

Interesting thought, however, it probably doesn't apply (though I'm not an expert on the laws of all states and these laws can and do vary. Federal law has its own definition.

18 U.S.C. §2102.

A public disturbance involving (1) an act or acts of violence by one or more persons part of an assemblage of three or more persons, which act or acts shall constitute a clear and present danger of, or shall result in, damage or injury to the property of any other person or to the person of any other individual or (2) a threat or threats of the commission of an act or acts of violence by one or more persons part of an assemblage of three or more persons having, individually or collectively, the ability of immediate execution of such threat or threats, where the performance of the threatened act or acts of violence would constitute a clear and present danger of, or would result in, damage or injury to the property of any other person or to the person of any other individual.

Now . . . if he said that from a soapbox pulpit at the scene he would be violating federal law. I'm certain he would never place himself into the center of a riot. He's probably hoping to give the sheeple the idea so they can do it and take the fall too.

Usually crazy criminals go to jail.

Jim G. - So why haven't the police or the FBI arrested him yet?


Vicky P. - Now, Now.... settle down...


Peter - Yeah. He needs to be locked up in the booby-hatch.

Kay M. - Sad, but true; and he's not alone in thinking that, is he.

Unequal treatment under the law seems too common a Republican value.



Aniko - Yeah. It is disquieting how the passion of his War Lust caused him to mangle such a common tactical term.


Doyle - So, what the law seems to say is that it is illegal to actually start, and/or take part in an actual riot; and it is illegal to threaten someone with a riot, but it is perfectly okay to try and stir one up from a distance, so long as you are not threatening anyone with it.

Yeah, that figures.

I think you're reacting exactly the way Rush wants you to right now...........

Rush makes a lot of money saying things like that so does howard Stern only Howard is dirty Rush is just in it for thr money and knows there are million of morons in this country that think he is for real

in it for thr money and knows there are million of morons in this country that think he is for real

Which is exactly why he should be held responsible. In my opinion, there is nothing worse than purposely misleading ignorant people. Doing it for money makes it even more disgusting.

Imagine if this got the publicity Reverend Wright's speech did.

BERF -

It looks like Rush's chaos is working..............especially on this thread. The Libs are getting all worked up. All it takes is one spark and they're out in the streets with torches, storming the castle.

I guess Rush pegged them perfectly......lol.

BERF.. -- Really? How so?


John Doyle -- Yeah.. Dang good point !


Sandy Knauer -- Exactly !!


Bret W. -- I am so glad you came in to comment on this article. Now I know what kind of graphic I should make for this. Thanks !!

Hm. Only if there is an actual riot, I think - unless it's conspiracy to riot, though political speech has a lot of leeway.

Bill's Spirit -

So Rush predicted that Libs would get all worked up, and sure enough it happened. Is that really such a spectacular prognostication?

I mean, is all that Liberal picketing so different than angrily rioting in the streets? All you have to do is just put down your sign and start attacking any passing Mercedes as "the evil Rich".

Wow Bert you really carry the repubs water all the way. You seem to have no problem with people and companies breaking the law. As long as it is a republican person or company.

Rush will never be held to account. He got off on the drug trafficing. Not once but twicde. Several of the right wing whacko commentators regularly advocate voter fraud. Go figure. Several also advocate assasinating public figures.

Bret W. -- "..is all that Liberal picketing so different than angrily rioting in the streets? .."


The thing is this; how would you know which members of the angry mob are protesting Democrats and which ones are Republican provokers?

'Cause if Flush's Corps do it his way, nobody will be able to tell the difference, right? Flush wants to send out whole mobs of covert Republicans to "act up" under the guise of "angry Democrats" in order to disrupt the Democrat's democratic process, even to the point of fiery devastation. He fully acts like he'd be giddy if people died or were maimed; he blatantly shows his giddiness over contemplating property damage.

Dude should be a comedian.

It also makes me wonder why his ilk of Republicans are so afraid of fair and accurate elections. Do they already know that they would lose every time if everything stayed, and was handled, on the up and up?

Kind of seems that way.

What's it say about people when they can't win without cheating?

What's it say about people when they can't win without cheating?

Double losers.

This is the same man who said he would bet his soul that Hillary Clinton would never actually run for the Senate seat for New York, that it was all smoke and mirrors to distract from Bill's impeachment. I don't think he lost much because I don't think he had a soul to bet. But I do think he regularly has plenty of egg on his face.

I think anybody with any kind of reason and intelligence thinks that Rush Limbaugh is a pathetic, hysterical, sad creature. It is beyond me why people listen to him and actually give merit to what he says. He's a sick man. And in this particular instance, he is no better than someone calling for a cross to be burned in the village square to rile up the civil rights folks.

There are many laws on the books that need to be updated and/or considered in the current technological environment. Many were constructed before present technology was even imagined, never mind common. I see no difference between a madman screaming for chaos and violence over the public airwaves and a madman standing on a crate in the middle of the village square doing the same.

Right now, there are people out there such as Bret who think that because this man agrees with their particular policitical philosophies, he's funny and should be left alone, and they take pleasure in laughing at people (crazy liberals in their terminology) who take exception to someone abusing the airwaves and pushing the laws and common public decency and responsibility to their limits and beyond.

Someday, there may be someone doing the same, but with a political agenda opposite of their own. Then, their little minds will wake up and scream, "Hey! They can't do that!". Until then, they cannot see the overarching implications of these actions in a lawful society. Sad. It used to be that people, even uneducated people, could at least look at something from a number of points of view. Now, people's minds have become so little, petty, closed and diminished, they cannot see the forest for the trees.

"Bret W. -- "..is all that Liberal picketing so different than angrily rioting in the streets? .."

Bill : The thing is this; how would you know which members of the angry mob are protesting Democrats and which ones are Republican provokers? "

The ones in the suits are the Conservatives.
But we'd never be caught dead at a picketing or a protest or a "The World Can't Wait" rally.

The college kids and the ones in dread-locks with dirty t-shirts are the Liberals. Unless you count the ones in suits with a latte in their hands. Use your nose and sniff for the smell of pot too. That's a dead giveaway.
