Just days after the horrific massacre of nearly 80 individuals at a camp in Norway, the always unpredictable and insensitive Glenn Beck suggested that the children at the camp were comparable to the Hitler Youth. Just hours after the tragic incident occurred, the media revealed that the camp was run by Norway's leading center-left party, the Labor Party, and that it was preparing young adults for the political arena. During his radio show, Beck said:
"...sounds a little like the Hitler Youth. I mean, who does a camp for kids that's all about politics? Disturbing."
First of all, really Glenn? In this day of age, is it ever appropriate to compare...anything to Hitler or the Nazis? Never. It just kindles the fire of hate.
Second, for someone who is so "knowledgeable" and "in-touch" with the political scene, you would think he would know that both major political parties hold "camps" in most states around the U.S. for youth that are interested or looking to get involved in politics.
Third: Glenn, you have no soul. 80 people lost their lives to a terrorist who went on a killing rampage for nearly two hours. He expressed a FAR RIGHT point of view and wanted to provoke a war against the European Muslim immigrants. You owe an apology to the victims and their families for your toxic rhetoric that only insinuates more hate.
