The 1990 HotPhone on my desk still has yet to ring. I'll give it another few minutes.

*pause*

Still no call from Beck. I think that makes his position on this issue self-evident.

Is this about that rumor I heard the Beck raped and killed a young girl in 1990? Why is he so afraid to tell the truth?

If he didn't have anything to hide, why wouldn't he address these questions publicly? Honestly, the American public deserves the truth about this troubling issue.

I find this all absolutely hilarious.

Obviously Glenn doesn't see the humor in all this. What is he hiding?

I find it amazing with so many people knowing this rumor that Glenn Beck won't deny it. He's even suing a website about it, but he won't deny it. That sounds like a man with something to hide, a man who doesn't want the truth to be known.

The day Glenn takes to explaining where he was when that poor girl was raped and murdered back in 1990 on his magic blackboard of insanity might be the day I'll actually watch his show from start to finish.

Is this the thread where everyone gets banninated?

Eddie Adams from Torrance: Is this the thread where everyone gets banninated?

It's a greenlight TRAP!

A false accusation of rape and murder? Why is that humorous?

Eddie Adams from Torrance: Is this the thread where everyone gets banninated?

I think they gave up with the banhammer after the first day or two and until recently just didn't green anything on it. Now we have two.

I suspect you still get banninated if you bring up how Glenn Beck'd a girl off topic.

SkinnyHead: A false accusation of rape and murder? Why is that humorous?

How do we know it's false if a certain someone doesn't deny it?

SkinnyHead: A false accusation of rape and murder? Why is that humorous?

It's humorous because GB was successfully trolled, and is overreacting about it. He's completely validating it, and even making the meme more popular.

If I were the person who started this, I would be putting a notch in the "w" column for sure.

SkinnyHead: A false accusation of rape and murder? Why is that humorous?

It's humorous in the same way that mouth breathing retards who think Obama hasn't sufficiently proven his citizenship status are humorous.

If I personally knew Beck, I'd start "Beck-rolling" him by sending him links that actually just redirected him to the site where his heinous crime of raping and murdering a young girl in 1990 are documented for the world to see.

Unixfreak: What is he hiding?

I read somewhere that Glenn Beck raped and killed a young girl in 1990.

Is this true??

We'll never know until he addresses these allegations head-on.

GooberMcFly: How do we know it's false if a certain someone doesn't deny it?

Because the people who are spreading the false allegations admit that it is just satire.

There just doesn't seem to be any humor in the satire, that's all. Are they trying to demonstrate that anyone can make up a false allegations against anyone else? Well that goes without saying.

Unixfreak: I find this all absolutely hilarious.

agreed. absolutely hilarious.

Glenn Beck doesn't seem to realize it without it being said, since it's his own tactic. If he can't eat his own dogfood, I suggest he stop...uh...telling other people to eat dogfood? I dunno, my analogy sort of fell apart at the end.

i hope one day soon Glen Beck's show he starts to cry and explain that he did or did not rape and murder a girl in 1990...

he needs to either confirm or deny what happened... and i want to see the pussy cry again...

SkinnyHead: There just doesn't seem to be any humor in the satire, that's all. Are they trying to demonstrate that anyone can make up a false allegations against anyone else? Well that goes without saying.

But what do your alts think?

His tactic is what? Does he falsely accuse people of committing crimes to get laughs or to make some sort of point, or what?

Humour is subjective.

It wasn't that funny until Beck stupidly Streisand'ed himself.

FTFA: Beck said to Representative Keith Ellison, "I like Muslims, I've been to mosques. ... And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview because what I feel like saying is, sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies."

Now ready, this is going to blow your mind.

Fark said to radio personality Glenn Beck, "I like Republicans. I've been to Tea Parties... And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview because what I feel like saying is, sir, prove to me that you did not rape and murder a young girl in 1990."

Yes. By making someone deny something that he admits to be false, it associates the person with that accusation because they had to respond to it. For example, his interview with Keith Ellison, the first Muslim Representative:

BECK: OK. No offense, and I know Muslims. I like Muslims. I've been to mosques. I really don't believe that Islam is a religion of evil. I -- you know, I think it's being hijacked, quite frankly.

With that being said, you are a Democrat. You are saying, "Let's cut and run." And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, "Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies."

And I know you're not. I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way.

well, if nothing else, we now apparently have a "cool" tab. thanks glenn!

SkinnyHead: His tactic is what? Does he falsely accuse people of committing crimes to get laughs or to make some sort of point, or what?

Uh, yeah. All the farking time. That's precisely the point of the "accusation".

It's not an accusation or even a joke per se. It's a mechanism. A means to an end. A way of illustrating a point.

Eddie Adams from Torrance: Is this the thread where everyone gets banninated?

It would seem that the moment Fark was mentioned in a legal briefing, all bets were off.

Beck may or may not have raped and murdered or murdered and raped a young girl in 1990. However after watching several TV shows about profiling, I am confident that authorities would consider the following: (my c&P from another thread)


Here's what the authorities should look for:

A white male, born around 1964, making him about 26-27 during the commission on the crime. Probably a child of broken home - possibly the parents divorced during his early teen-age years.

He probably changed residences frequently during his formative years and, because of this, was unable to form a social network which is very important for an adolescent. There's a high probability one or both of his parents - most likely the mother - died under suspicious circumstances while he was young.

There is also a strong probability that one of his extended family members committed suicide while the perp was in his teens.

He would feel as if he never "fit-in" and rather than attempt to make friends, would go out of his way to alienate people. There's a high probability he was married during the period of time the crime took place; the marriage would have ended in divorce.

He probably is a substance abuser - either drugs, alcohol or both. He shows no empathy and is verbally abusive while, at the same time, using every opportunity to portray himself as a victim.


If Glenn Beck's Wiki bio doesn't fit this profile, he should be OK

Tastes Like Chicken: FTFA: Beck said to Representative Keith Ellison, "I like Muslims, I've been to mosques. ... And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview because what I feel like saying is, sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies."

What's with the ellipses?

Here's what Beck said to Ellison three years ago (on CNN): "You are a Democrat. You are saying let's cut and run. And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you because -- what I feel like saying is -- Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies. And I don't -- I know you're not, I'm not accusing you of being an enemy -- but that's the way I feel and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way."

Maybe he was a little heavy handed in comparing cut-and-run with working with our enemies, but I don't see the connection between that and a false rape/murder allegation.

At first, I didn't believe that Fox news commentator Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990. But with all the comments now coming out about it, I think it's time we thought a bit more about whether Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990. I mean, if it was totally false, would there be so much chit chat about it? I think not.

Thus, I think we need to ask some hard questions:
- If Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990, shouldn't he use his bully pulpit to come clean to the American people?
- What kind of person would just let this rumor about rape and murder go unchallenged? A guilty person perhaps?
- If he did rape and murder a girl in 1990, do you think he looks back on the crime with glee?

Until these questions are answered, the American people are going to have to dig deeper into this mystery.

SkinnyHead: false rape/murder allegation.

We don't know it's false until he confirms or denies it, don't we?

We have a Cool tab now?

SkinnyHead: Because the people who are spreading the false allegations admit that it is just satire.

From what I have seen they assert it is satire, but have not asserted that it is just satire.

Not only that, but if Glenn's not guilty, why is he trying to silence those who are just asking questions. Is it because he fears the answers that they will find?

Can anyone answer this-
How do you have a "Fark Publicity" thread that is only accessible via a convoluted series of links?
Shouldn't publicity be easily accessible?

I made a handy flow chart for Glenn Beck so he can understand what is going on.

GWSuperfan: Can anyone answer this-

On the right hand side of the fark mainpage, there's a box with a bunch of links under the title of Community. Press/Publicity has this link.

Now that Beck has shown he believes there is a higher legal authority than the constitution, I think he is going to have to change his logo from "U.S. Constitution Watchdog" to a more appropriate one. Maybe something like this.

I believe it's possible that Glenn Beck may have raped and murdered a girl in 1990. What I am waiting for is Glenn Beck to come forward and refute these charges.

Shutting down the web site that asks the question only brings more questions to more people's minds. It will not end this sordid affair.

Glenn, please use your nationally-televised show to address these questions!

Heyyy, another green light for the meme! Yay!
