Michael Reagan, radio talk show host and son of late president Ronald Reagan, could be investigated by the FBI after he called for the execution of Mark Dice, anti-war activist and founder of media watchdog group The Resistance, on the air. On the June 10th edition of his nationally syndicated Radio America show, |
Reagan called Dice and others in the “9/11 Truth” movement “traitors” after learning that they were sending letters, declassified documents and DVDs to troops in Iraq that they say point to government involvement in the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. The effort is part of The Resistance’s “Operation Inform the Soldiers.” “I don’t want the soldiers who are risking their lives in Iraq to be used as pawns in the creation of the New World Order,” Dice said in a recent press release. “I personally know U.S. Marines who believe 9/11 was an inside job, and they tell me that many Marines suspect that this is the case but are afraid to speak up out of fear of punishment.” “We ought to find the people who are doing this,” Reagan said, “take ‘em out, and shoot ‘em. Really. Just find the people who are sending those letters…to demoralize our troops…they are traitors to this country…and shoot them. You have a problem with that? Deal with it. But anybody who would do that doesn’t deserve to live. You call them traitors–that’s what they are–and you shoot ‘em dead. I’ll pay for the bullet.”
“How about you take Mark Dice out,” Reagan continued, “and put him in the middle of the firing range? Tie him to a post, don’t blindfold him, and let it rip and have some fun with Mark Dice.” “Now we know where the Ron Paul supporters went,” quipped a co-host. On Sunday, Dice announced on his website that he received a personal apology from Reagan and will appear on Reagan’s show to receive an on-air apology Monday, June 16th, at 3:30pm Pacific.
So if Imus can be fired for his remarks, why should this idiot be able to keep his job? I would think the FCC, as well as the FBI, would have something to say about this. You can listen to his remarks here.

Michael Savage is rather intense and not very intellectual in his thinking, unlike how some of the other successful conservative commentators like Rush Limbaugh sometimes are.
I think he has anger management issues, personally.
His show should be on at midnight or 1 am at the same time the UFO experts have their shows.
I also believe that Reagen went far, far overboard on this. It is also apparent that a double standard does exist. We know that “take ‘em out, and shoot ‘em” is far worse than “nappy headed hos”. The only reason this isn’t getting more airplay is because Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson don’t care about Mark Dice.
But we are entirely missing the real point here.
Where is the line between freedom of speech and treason? What does it take to cross the line, and what do we do about it?
When does Mark Dice stop being Charlie Rose and become Tokyo Rose?
The answer? Let’s look…
Definition of Treason:
Violation of allegiance toward one’s country or sovereign, especially the betrayal of one’s country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies.
Definition of Sedition:
Crime of creating a revolt, disturbance, or violence against lawful authority with the intent to cause its overthrow or destruction.
(Britannica Concise Encyclopedia)
Mark Dice is not committing treason but is dangerously close to sedition. He is actively engaged in subverting our troops with (at best) questionable information. If he ever admits or if anyone he associates with confesses that he knew that what he was sending may not be the entire truth, then he has committed sedition.
Now, would that make him an enemy combatant?
>>You call them traitors–that’s what they are–and
>>you shoot ‘em dead. I’ll pay for the bullet.
Whoa, he’s advocating the execution of traitors? Does that mean “outers” of people responsible for the security of our nation, like Valerie Plame? War profiteers?
Big Mike seems to be walking on fairly dangerous ground if he’s calling for the murder of our highest “elected” officials!! Yikes!
Why should either Mr. Dice’s or Mr. Reagan’s free speech rights need to be abridged? Dice has his conspiracy campaign, and Reagan thinks he should be shot for it. Everyone has an opinion whose public expression should be protected. Everybody here seems to be for free speech as long as the other side is being censored.
some asshole said something outrageous to help his ratings?
gee, how strange.
i didn’t even know dude had a radio show.
Well if that’s all Reagan said, then I don’t see an issue here. What’s wrong with offering to pay for the bullet for the execution of traitors? Doesn’t that sort of stuff get posted on this blog every few days(wrt Bush, Cheney, et al)?
As for talk show hosts, Bill Maher has said stuff like this too.

But some Americans LIKE to remain dumb. Others like to understand the issues.
Liberals Read More than Conservatives
Liberals are more avid readers than conservatives, a new AP-Ipsos poll has discovered. Thirty-four percent of conservatives said they hadn’t read a book in a year, compared with 22% of liberals. A publishing exec and former congressman said that while liberals “can’t say anything in less than paragraphs,” conservatives gravitate to slick, pithy sound-bites.
“The Karl Roves of the world have built a generation that just wants a couple slogans,” Schroeder theorized; ironically, the AP points out, Karl Rove is known for his voracious literary appetite. A White House spokesman chalked up the “loquaciousness of liberals” to “obfuscation.”

And Conservatives give MORE than Liberals to charities. What’s your point?
Clearly gregallen wants to make the statement that if you’re conservative, you’re stupid and uneducated. I submit that if you’re liberal, you’re arrogant and elitist.
Only difference is, I’ll come right out and say it.
Many of you libtards don’t even listen to him yet you are having a hissy fit over this. He’s a radio talk show host and that’s it. He’s not making policy. The only thing I wanna know is why John has so many lefty blogger/posters on here? No liberal talk show host or person has ever openly threatened anyone before or is that ok because they are trashing conservatives?
Yeah, I’d say leave him alone. He’s a joke, like Rush and Drudge and the rest. No smart people take them seriously. These clowns are considered to be in the same league as WWF wrestling…entertaining for sure, but not ‘real’. They’re not journalist and should be listened to like Art Bell…lots of fun some times, but just for a laugh. They say these crazy things to get ratings (which is the whole point)…you have to get your half brain dead listeners so pumped up they keep tuned in through the next 10 minutes commercials.
Now on the other hand, if ANYONE has ANY clip of a ‘liberal’ NPR radio host blathering into a mike and calling for someone’s death PLEASE feel free to post the link. Anyone? Waiting…anyone?
You shoot traitors, unless you’re a NAZI/Commie support the 5th Globalist column. Most leftist are traitor to their people and country, that’s a Commie/NAZI/Leftist is someone who’s allegiance lies with the Internationalist Soviet/Globalist governing bodies, not with the Republic or Nation or with even their common man. That’s why all the little NAZIs talk about the masses and what’s good for all the heard.
Cowards, Traitors and suicidal, they parrot what they think is popular and what sounds good to the ears of a fool a worshiper of man.
And by the way, M.Reagan isn’t a Neo-Con. He’s a nationalist and possibly a conservative. You know the opposite of NAZI/Commis/Lefist/Liberal/Progmissive/Judgemental bigots that feel M.Reagan isn’t entitled to an a belief that a traitor should be dealt with as such. You’ve had so meany of your little commie buddies call the killing of all conservatives and you just blow it off, shows what happens when cowards are threatened. You really should concentrate on the Muslims. By definition they are anti-abortion, anti-gay, anti-women’s rights and anti-liberal. But showing your ignorance you seek to support them instead. Stupid, that’s beyond stupid it’s suicidal, which sounds about right for a bunch of little judgemental NAZIs.

Your logic and reasoning are breathtaking.

#26, Lyin’ Mike,
As for talk show hosts, Bill Maher has said stuff like this too.
Still telling lies. Maybe you actually have a link to something Mahar, whom I don’t really care for, said.
But I won’t wait for it. You enjoy lying, trolling, confabulating, inventing, and the other typical neo-con bullshit.
#34, Improbus,
Yes, I noticed that too. His post just took my breath away. Then I realized I had a peanut caught in my throat from laughing while I snacked. Lesson learned; don’t snack on peanuts while reading a traax track.
I’m glad my wife knows the Heimlich manuever. I would have hated to die with his post open in front of me.

>>NAZI/Commie support the 5th Globalist column.
So. Let me see if I understand. You’re calling for the execution of the Vice President, Karl Rove, Scooter-Pie Libby and many others of the extreme right wingnut persuasion?
>>You’ve had so meany of your little commie
>>buddies call [for] the killing of all
>>conservatives and you just blow it off
Wtf? Are you just practicing your typing, or are you delusional to think that you’re actually referring to us “commies” calling for someone to be killed?
Man, you’re goofy!
There was an assassination attempt on Dick Cheney. Some liberals were regretting the attempt failed. From the show,’The bomb was wasted’ BM’THat’s a funny joke’ When asked if he was also regretting the failed attempt ‘I’m just saying if he did die, other people, more people would live. That’s a fact.’
#38, Lyin’ Mike,
I know you won’t reply, but where the fuck did you come up with that garbage???
only issue i see here is maybe have Reagan switch to decaf for his show.
i just see another media guy trying to get more copy, as it were. -if his listeners act on those words, well then thats just sad.
i’m sure one could find a heap of similar dribble spilled from many other personalities in the past. it’s just talk.
charging him with a crime would just set yet another foolish precedent and undermine whats left of our constitution.
-might as way break out the un-words and thought-police now and get it over with if your going to spin this out of control…
*shrug*
