Glenn Beck: No death for child rapists

June 25, 2008
 Radio Clips

The Glenn Beck Program

GLENN: And just as I start to make the point that we're not out of control, Stu says in my ear, "Glenn, I just want you to know that the Supreme Court has just decided that you can't put child rapists to death." Excuse me? So I take back everything I say. We're doomed. I mean, wait a minute. Hang on just a second. The Supreme Court has ruled -- do we know who -- it was 5-4? Was it another split decision?

STU: Yeah, it was 5-4, Glenn.

GLENN: 5-4. Do we know who, who it was, which judges?

STU: Yeah, it's really going to be a shocker to you. It was Scalia, Alito, Roberts and Thomas who were on the correct side of the issue.

GLENN: Yeah, killing child rapists.

STU: Yeah, and then the other idiots on the other side.

GLENN: So I don't even know why this is even up for debate on the Supreme Court. This is just because raping a child isn't bad enough?

STU: Yeah, you have to figure out, Glenn, whether -- is rape -- raping a child just kind of an annoyance or do we really dislike it? And now we know it's just an annoyance.

GLENN: Right. So we just have to find out if it's as bad as murder.

STU: Yeah, of course.

GLENN: Definitely not as bad as murder.

STU: No, no, no, no, nowhere close. It's what I would call a little -- it's a little annoyance but nothing big.

GLENN: Yeah. You know, Stu, you said that my last stage show was the most violent stage show you've ever seen on any stage.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: It was the hostile of stage shows.

GLENN: Yeah, it was. It was kind of The Saw of stage shows.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: I stick with my platform on pedophilia and pedophiles and those who rape children. And I quote from memory, I hope I get this one right, from memory the platform plank on pedophiles for Beck '08 was shoot them in the head. I think that was -- I hate to misquote myself, but I believe that was it.

STU: Yeah. You know, I would have thought we lived in a country where, I don't know, punishment, retribution for molesting and raping children was a somewhat widely held belief but apparently not.

GLENN: I'm looking at Joe right now as he is reading the decision. Do you have any -- have you gotten to the part? What is the reason? Come on over here. Come on over here. Hang on. Joe's trying to -- I mean, it takes somebody who's not completely brain-dead but on their way to brain-dead to understand it and so that's why we got Joe to -- he understands the legal nonsense. Okay, approximately 5,702 incidents of -- I don't need to talk about the kinds of rape, of a child under the age of 12 were reported nationwide in 2005. 5700 rapes of children under 12 in one year. This is twice the total incidents of international murder for victims. Okay, so what did they say, that would be too many -- we would kill too many people? Hang on just a second. Hang on.

JOE: The primary thrust of the decision, Glenn, is that the punishment can't be disproportionate to the crime and the majority of the opinion is saying that only those crimes that result in death are punishable by death.

GLENN: Oh, wait a minute, I didn't know that. Hey, who wants to rape a child rapist? Let's get rapists to rape child rapists, that way everybody in prison is happy.

STU: I mean, this is a very innovative solution, Glenn. I believe it was originally quoted as an eye for an eye.

GLENN: Well, that's what they're saying. Basically aren't they saying eye for an eye here. They are saying you can't take an eye if he only took your finger. Well, then I say we rape these guys at the top of every hour.

STU: Well, Glenn --

GLENN: No, seriously I don't want to have to -- I don't want to do that. So we'll invent some machines that will just rape them repeatedly at the top of every hour.

STU: Top of the hour rapes and traffic every 12 minutes.

GLENN: Come on, you've got to finish that slop up because it's about time for your next rape.

STU: The good thing about this -- I mean, Glenn, I'm not a lawyer as you know, but the good thing about this conclusion is apparently also all the crappy prison sentences will also be thrown out because that's clearly not proportionate with crime. I mean, a three-year prison sentence isn't proportional for child rape.

GLENN: Hey, look, it only lasted three minutes. Why don't I go to jail for three minutes.

STU: Well, it could get worse you're saying. Okay. I was thinking that maybe we should --

GLENN: Joe, I'm saying this in jest but it really is that, isn't it? I mean, it's really, it's going down that road, isn't it? Holy cow. Joe just said this decision is frightening when you read the language. This court has done some frightening, frightening. With Guantanamo, gang, I got news for you. We're in deep trouble with Guantanamo. We can't do this, we're going to give these guys access to our courts? Let me say something. If I were President of the United States, I would go on national television and say, ladies and gentlemen of America, the Supreme Court said that we don't have Guantanamo, so that is over, we're going to release all of them but I want you to know from hereon out our policy is to not have prisoners. We're going to shoot them all in the head. If we think that they are against us, we're going to shoot them and kill them, period. Because that's the only thing we've got going for us is we can put them away and get information.

'YOUR voice makes a difference': Coca-Cola takes a 'pause' on woke initiatives after BIG boycott

Earlier this year, Coca-Cola became the poster child for how a corporation could shove leftist ideologies onto its consumers. The company suspended advertising on Facebook in a push to censor former President Donald Trump, published a manifesto about racial equity, and demanded all legal teams working for Coke meet certain diversity quotas.

But now, after Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tx.), Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), and many other conservative voices called for a boycott of the company's products, Coca-Cola appears to be shifting directions.

The Washington Examiner reported that the company issued a conciliatory statement after conspicuously failing to appear on a published list of hundreds of corporations and individuals that signed a statement denouncing the Georgia voting bill.

"We believe the best way to make progress now is for everyone to come together and listen respectfully, share concerns, and collaborate on a path forward. We remained open and productive conversations with advocacy groups and lawmakers who may have differing views," the company said. "It's time to find common ground. In the end, we all want the same thing – free and fair elections, the cornerstone of our democracy."

Then last week, Coca-Cola Co.'s new general counsel, Monica Howard Douglas, told members of the company's global legal team that the diversity initiative announced by her predecessor, Bradley Gayton, is "taking a pause for now." Gayton resigned unexpectedly from the position on April 21, after only eight months on the job, to serve as a strategic consultant to Chairman and CEO James Quincey.

"Why is Coca-Cola 'taking a pause' on all of these? Because you have been standing up," Glenn Beck said on the radio program Monday. "You and others have been standing up. Your voice, it's the power of one. Your voice makes a difference."

'The problem is NOT racial': Bob Woodson, civil rights activist who survived segregation, counters 'race grievance' LIES

This week on "The Glenn Beck Podcast," civil rights activist and Woodson Center founder Bob Woodson joined Glenn to call out the leftists in the "race grievance industry," like the Rev. Al Sharpton and Black Lives Matter, Inc., who, he says, are "profiting off the misery of their people."

Woodson lived through the appalling segregation laws of the last century and has a much different message about what it means to be "oppressed" than the so-called "anti-racist" activists today.

Woodson said he believes the real struggle for impoverished minority communities "is not racial." He argued that leftists "at the top" derive "moral authority" by claiming to represent "so called marginalized groups," while they prosper at the expense of those "at the bottom."

"There's nothing worse than self-flagellating guilty white people and rich, angry black people who profit off the misery of their people," Woodson said.

"I call what Sharpton and some of those are doing is worse than bigotry. It's treason. It's moral treason against their own people," he added. "The only time you hear from them is when a white police officer kills a black person, which happens maybe 20 or 21 times a year, but 6,000 blacks are killed each year by other blacks. So, in other words, their message is black lives only matter when taken by someone white, which means you are betraying the black community when you turn your back on 20 children that are slaughtered and you don't march in that community and demand that those killers be turned over to the police."

'The problem is not racial," Woodson asserted. "The problem is the challenge of upward mobility. Any time you generalize about a group of people, blacks, whites, Native American, and then you try to apply remedies, it always benefits those at the top at the expense of those at the bottom. ... It's a bait and switch game where you're using the demographics of the worst of these, to get resources that helps the best of these, or those who are prospering at the top. So, if I was the president, I would say an end to the race grievance business, that America should concentrate on the moral and spiritual free fall that is consuming people at the bottom."

Mark Levin decodes Biden’s first address to Congress, EXPOSES radical plans for our country

Following President Joe Biden's first joint address to Congress, Glenn Beck joined fellow BlazeTV host and author of the new book, "American Marxism," Mark Levin to expose what they called the "Liar-In-Chief's" radical plans for our country and to explain why the far Left's proposals and programs are really a "frontal attack" on our Constitution, our country, and our way of life.

"Substantively, this is a frontal attack on our Constitutional system of limited government. It is a frontal attack on our capitalist system. He's basically throwing out all the bromides for the radical left groups that now form the base of the modern Democrat Party. And I make the case that ... this is Marxist bullcrap in its broadest sense," Levin stated.

"Here we are, a country now where one man can get up in the middle of the night and make a list of everything he wants to do to the country," he added, speaking figuratively. "It's like an unreality where we're living in separate worlds ... the whole thing is a fraud."

Watch the video clip below to hear Levin expose the lies and misinformation in Biden's speech and explain why he believes the true message is absolutely chilling for the future of our nation:

Biden's Big Speech: The Glenn Beck & Mark Levin Rebuttal

After months of delays and COVID-19 excuses, President Biden finally delivers his address to the joint session of Congress. It is a truly historic moment, as only a few hundred members of Congress received an invite. While some have compared this speech to JFK's moon landing challenge, it will likely be more like FDR's New Deal nightmare. Will Speaker Pelosi continue her tradition of ripping up the president's speech? Will VP Harris cackle to a quiet audience?

Glenn Beck teams up with fellow BlazeTV host Mark Levin, author of the new book "American Marxism," to take on the progressive plans that could completely transform our economy and our way of life. Steve Deace, BlazeTV host and author of "Faucian Bargain," joins to discuss why it's not enough for conservatives to just lament the dangerous Democrat agenda; we must activate against the woke infection of our institutions. Plus, a power panel to rival CNN talking heads: Stu Burguiere, BlazeTV host of "Stu Does America," and Jason Buttrill, head researcher and writer for Glenn Beck.
