Glenn Beck on his program had a guest on named Brad Thor who hinted at a possible assassination attempt to stop Trump. This is in violation of Secret Service protections afforded to the candidate.
We are asking the FCC to fine or arrest Glenn Beck and Brad Thor for this.

I have been digging through the FCC guidelines all night because people keep pointing out the legal nuances of broadcast standards and it is honestly making my head spin. It is wild how many of you message me about the same specific clips because you saw them live versus how many only heard about it through secondary reports later on.

Seeing this take off like it has is honestly surreal because I just sat down at my laptop feeling frustrated and now look at where we are. It is wild to see so many people agreeing that there needs to be accountability for these kinds of threats because words really do have consequences in the real world.

Treating a life is not the freedom of speech, this kind of dangerous speech on air? is not good for public safety and bad behavior for the kids and young people. This is not conservative Christians, it hate speech to the public, please no more these kind of behavior from this person in the radio station.
Beck had threatened Trump many times using his on-the-air time to incite harm to TRUMP. He has stated "the stabbing wouldn't stop", he has advocated assassination of Trump. How about upholding the law. It is a federal crime, a felony to threaten a presidental candidate. FBI, do your job!
These two have committed the crime known as soliciting murder. Notice too that according to these two (Beck and Thor) Trump is guilty before having been proven so. That is deeply un-American. Aren't we all supposed to be innocent til proved guilty???
Glenn Beck has lost all credibility. You can say he was speaking hypothetically all he wants, but this is the second time in so many months that he and his guests have made very thinly veiled threats against a presidential candidate. Had this been about Obama he would already be under the federal prison.
If we all can't threaten someone's life and get away with it neither should they. Also, they have a voice and promote this idea to sick minded individuals. This must be made an example of what CAN'T be done in our country and stop the reaction that it may cause.
They are wrong and out of control. Should add Mitt Romney to this too
There's a time to draw a line which beck crossed throw him in jail take him off the air America First Trump 2016

They encouraged the assassination of a presidential candidate on a nationally syndicated show. There needs to be legal intervention/consequences. If they had advocated Clinton's murder they would not have made it out of their chairs before federal authorities handcuffed them.
