On his show yesterday, Glenn Beck acted out an implied execution by dousing an actor with the liquid contents of a gasoline container and lighting a match. A disclaimer flashed on the screen while he was doing this said it was water.
Beck’s stated reason for doing this was to protest Pres. Obama’s immigration reform plan.
Crooks and Liars has the story and the video of the entire act (you’ll need the latest Flash player to watch it). I suggest you do watch it, because my description here is quite inadequate to convey how it came across.
I don’t think I need comment any further; the video speaks for itself.
ADDED: I forgot to mention the most important part. Before he did this, Beck said he was Barack Obama. He was pretending he was Pres. Obama pouring gasoline over the head of this actor (who was supposed to represent Americans) and then lighting a match.
