Posted By Radiofreeeuropa 5 months, 3 weeks ago in NewsIn an unexpected twist, sharp-tongued, conservative talk show host Michael Savage, who in the past savaged Hillary Clinton as a "dangerous human being" and "fraudulent huckster," has asked her for help after being banned in Britain.

There are civil rights violations, and then are really serious rights violations. While his "violation" has to be considered, there's certainly a long line of national and international violations in front of him that should be addressed first.

I've never, ever been exposed to any of these people - nor of course would I expose myself to them!

But listening to the BBC World Service news the other night they played a brief clip and it was just lunatic raving.
Something like Hunter Thompson on some VERY nasty drugs, perhaps.
He doesn't have a prayer of getting into the UK. -

Except for the author of these blatant, hate-filled, lies:
Reply
"Bush, and Blair, and the prime minister of Japan, and Silvio Berlusconi, these people are criminals, and they are responsible for mass murder in the world, for the war, and for the occupation, through their support for Israel, and through their support for a globalised capitalist economic system, which is the biggest killer the world has ever known. It has killed far more people than Adolf Hitler. It has killed far more people than George Bush. The economic system which these people support, which leaves most of the people in the world hungry, and without clean water to drink. So we're going to put them on trial, the leaders, when they come. They think they're coming for a holiday in a beautiful country called Scotland; in fact, they're coming to their trial....Ancient freedoms, which we had for hundreds of years, are being taken away from us under the name of the war on terror, when the real big terrorists are the governments of Britain and the United States. They are the real rogue states breaking international law, invading other people's countries, killing their children in the name of anti-terrorism, when in fact, all they're achieving is to make more terrorists in the world, not less, to make the world more dangerous, rather than less."
Note how this lying British fool, while refusing to acknowledge the existence of terrorists, then goes on to say Bush, Blair, et al, will create MORE of them.
But I digress. Why would Savage want to go to the UK anyway? Does he have a fine set of teeth that needs rotted?

"He vowed Thursday that his representatives will appeal to the White House if necessary to seek redress - and said he intends to file a lawsuit against Smith herself later this week, charging her with defamation of character."
Reply
Ah, good luck with your White House appeal. lol. And how can he sue for defamation of character? He has no character to defame.
But, be it as it may, I do not favor bans unless the individual or groups committed felonies and I do not favor censoring another's views because they are offensive.-

Anyone should be free to say whatever they want - and anyone should be free to decide whether or not to give a PLATFORM to somebody to speak from.
As soon as you do the latter you actually become responsible for what the person says and for any damage that may ensue, physical, emotional, psychic or whatever...
BIG difference! -

In a free country people can choose their form of entertainment. But, it's sort of like that intelligence test you took some time back when it said something like "60 Minutes is to news as Michael Savage is to, well, Homer Simpson".

The problem is he is listed with murderers and terrorists that kill people. I find his comments get somewhat repugnant and he considers Hannity and Limbaugh to be liberals. However Britain used to be a free speech country until the Muslims started yelling about what people said about them.

"especially since it involves a violation of international treaties signed by both the United States and Britain, Thompson said."

Based on the Neo's trck record with that I'd think he doesnt have a leg to stand on arguing that one. I guss tho Britain as decided it doesn;t want unsavory characters who do nothing but spread dissent in the country. -

He has a right to free speech. When you exercise that right you need to think out the consequences of what you say BEFORE you say it. Any country can deny entrance to anybody for any or no reason. We deny entrance to thousands of Mexicans every year just because they're Mexican.

If he can't get into Britain maybe those cheese eating surrender monkeys across the channel will let him in. Maybe as the Weiner man he can get into Germany but last I heard they still wern't too keen on people who hate other groups.

The British Home Office, in making the announcement last week banning the 16 individuals, said Savage's radio show constituted "engaging in unacceptable behavior by seeking to provoke others to serious criminal acts and fostering hatred which might lead to inter-community violence."
Reply
Newmann said last week that "the U.K. has been able to ban people who promote hatred, terrorist activities and serious violence since 2005. During this time, 101 people have been excluded for unacceptable behavior, including animal rights extremists, right-to-life, homophobe and far-right extremists, as well as those who advocate hatred and violence in support of their religious beliefs." -

Keep the bastard banned. Banning him from the USA would suit me just fine. These radical right wing talk show hosts are nothing but meglo-maniacs. They don't care how much damage they do. All they care about it getting attention, kinda like 2 year olds.

1. Can not stomach savage. The name fits him well.
Reply
2. Banning and barring someone for their beliefs is not road anyone should travel. This will drive the wedge in deeper. Separate us further.
3. This could be the HUGE dose of karma he's needed for a long time. Spewing vileness to the public will get you into trouble from time to time. Seems like MS's time is here and now. -
