Why We Don’t Need To Sign Beck’s ‘Pledge Of Nonviolence’



This is one of those instances where I respectfully question the motives of Glenn Beck. Is he sincere about his convictions or is this ‘Pledge of Nonviolence’ a ratings stunt?

Below is the Pledge of Nonviolence that Martin Luther King, Jr. asked those who believed in his message to abide by as well as his core principles of nonviolence. I am going to ask you to make the same commitment to nonviolence and give you the opportunity to make that pledge public by having you ‘sign’ these documents below. -glenn
This is almost the same ploy I got from that Princeton professor on Al Sharpton’s show: his repeated asking that I agree Tea Party racism be condemned. Why should I condemn something that wasn’t and by doing so, be validating a falsehood? Beck is doing the exact same thing here by asking the Tea Party to sign a pledge of non-violence; he’s in essence making us pledge not to do something we haven’t, nor would do. For example, go to a Tea Party protest and you’ll see the police leaning on their squad cars, smiling and talking with the participants. Go to a liberal protest and you’ll see the police… in riot gear. NO Tea Party thus far has been violent and even Glenn Beck himself mocks the liberal and/or mainstream media assertion that little old ladies and retirees are prone to violent behavior. Should this become an impressive list, those who are smearing the Tea Party will look to this and be validated in their assessment that we are ‘dangerous’. Bill Clinton said as much and a publicity stunt pledge would mean we agree there may potential violence and we need to police ourselves. It ain’t true. The Tea Party cleans up after itself everywhere they meet, and unlike the left, we actually like and respect the police and the law. Nothing else need be proven and put in writing.
