Tea Party Crowd Yells Let Him Die

So let me see if I get this right? You're out of the military, I'm guessing you're high school educated, and you're only making 24k?

I'm not out of the Army, I'm in the Reserves, it's a branch of the Army. High School educated, but I work labor, right now. Starting college again in Jan.
 
If your post were truly honest, it would acknowledge all the teabagging bystanders who did nothing to stop that "handful" of morons. From the video, it's obvious that majority support the reprehensible actions of that "handful" of morons

And I suppose you buy into what you think of Americans by watching segments of "Jay Walking." Don't be foolish.

You have no defense for all those rightwingers who stood by and said nothing while the teabaggers mocked the man who was dying. All you have is an ad hom, just like the teabaggers who mocked the man who was dying
 
Meh. It's what arguing politics is about. And no not yet. I just got out of IET when my unit just got back from Iraq, so I've not been overseas yet.

Might not come to that if the draw down schedule is moved up. Anyway, good luck to you.

So they are supposed to....

A. Know that a complete stranger is about to say something stupid.... AND
B. Tackle him and put duct tape over his mouth so that they have "DONE SOMETHING TO STOP" this action?

Give me a ****ing break dude... you so full of it.

See thats the thing about "right wingers" as you call them.

They are often called "the silent majority"

These folks usually don't feel it is necessary to try to silence others from having an opinion and expressing that opinion.


Im sorry this disappoints a "freedom loving" liberal like yourself.

Do they also feel they have no right to express their own opinion? If "no" then why didn't they express their disapproval? That doesn't require that they silence anyone, including themselves, as your straw man dishonestly implies

The crowd never once yelled "Let him die."

That's actually the first time I've carefully listened. Paul talks about freedom and personal responsibility and the crowd goes wild. Blitzer asks if we should "just let him die" and I hear ONE "Yeah", ONE "yes" and a whoop amongst light laughter.

This is overblown.

Indeed.

You and I are observing mass hysteria.

How did this mass hysteria come to be?

Feh.. I think you take a clash of worldviews and add a heaping spoon of "hear what you want to hear" and you explain lots of things...

The so called"silent majority" has not been invoked since the Nixon administration. And it was a joke then also.

The Tea Party is nothing like a "silent majority"; they are a very loud minority.

It would be foolish to think the Tea Partiers aren't a "sleeping giant" in this nation.

the problem being that their dream is a nightmare for most of the nation.

Never the point. That anyone felt free enough to express should a vile thought is of some concern.

If the crowd didn't shout "let him die", then don't post that the crowd said "let him die".

Both sides of this issue I agree and disagree with. The man shouldn't have dropped his health insurance and thought that it was wise. The crowd should not have seemingly shouted in glee at the thought of him dying. This issue is not black or white.
