Rocker Ted Nugent caused an uproar Saturday night when a portion of an appearance at event with former President Donald Trump was posted to social media where he suggested his favor of attendees if they “just went berserk on the skulls of the Democrats and the Marxists and the communists.”
Austin, Texas was the latest stop in Trump’s American Freedom Tour with headliners that included his son Donald Trump Jr., future daughter-in-law and Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle, along with former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and documentary filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza. Nugent’s contribution to the gathering included performing on his vintage guitar, interspersed with his waxing eloquent on the Constitution and the civic duty of Americans to remain in touch with their congressional representatives.
However, Nugent may have pushed the hyperbolic limits a bit too far when suggested event participants make a considerably more than concerted effort to spread his message.

“Think of what the enemies of America have done in the last 14 months,” he offered before arguing, “They didn’t sneak into the White House. They lied, they cheated, they scammed and every day the Democrats violate their sacred oath to the Constitution. And if you can’t impress your friends on that they shouldn’t be your friends…I love you people madly, but I’d love you more if you went forward and just went berserk on the skulls of the Democrats and the Marxists and the communists.”
Now, whether taken in the full context of Nugent’s remarks or out of context as the left preferred to present it, the rocker isn’t going to convince any moderates that such a red meat expression wasn’t over the top. It only comes across as all the worse when juxtaposed with the tragic shooting that occurred in Buffalo earlier the same day.
Leftists were drooling at the opportunity to pin the violence of the suspect on the beliefs espoused by conservatives and their reactions were ultimately condoned by President Joe Biden.

They went on to call for immediate action to be taken against Nugent for his words, ranging from an investigation to an outright arrest, as it was believed that such rhetoric would incite violence akin to how they view the events that transpired on January 6, 2021.
Why is he not getting a visit from the @FBI for that comment at the end?

Umm… how is this disgusting creature not under arrest right now?

And while believed moral superiorities were put on parade and faux legal scholars chirped on their understanding of First Amendment protections ending with incitement to violence, not a single person pointed to any act of violence that was committed at the behest of Nugent’s speech. Nuance, it seems, is a concept that is beyond the left but hypocrisy is an old friend as evidenced by their lack of denouncement of Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) comments in the wake of the SCOTUS leak.

Not only did the mayor push for action, she doubled down in response to the backlash and claimed her stance was fulfilling a patriotic duty. Nugent has yet to issue any form of clarification on his statements and it is unknown if he was aware of the Buffalo shooting before he took the stage.

It isn’t hate speech if it involves wiping out Democrats and Marxists.
America will be a better place when we ship their asses out of here.
Ted Nugent is absolutely right. Left wing scum have been saying the same thing about attacking those of us who voted for and supported President Trump since 2016. The only way to battle them is to fight fire with fire.
Its not like Ted is wrong
One minor, disconcerting fact for democrats, the Buffalo shooter is, according to his manifesto, an authoritarian leftist, which would make him the same as China Joe. FJB
They only believe in free speech if it’s them talking!!! Democrats are pure evil.
He can use the “Maxine Waters Sociopath Suggestion,” to do the same on Republicans.
I’ve had some trouble too. When I refreshed the page it worked correctly. The main problem was the Tommy’s Garage show hijacking the page and forcing me to keep starting over. The other problem I had was finding the “Edit” button which is almost completely hidden from view. You have to first click on the star below the post box and then it barely appears.
Tommy’s Garage interrupts me doing it as I type right now who the f is this guy! I really don’t appreciate it although he seems conservative.
“Dems, Marxists & communists???” Ted… you repeat yourself!
Count me in! Her goes Tommy’s Garage how rude!!
So, like these Liberal Women “Karens” posting about “arresting” Ted, while about Mad Maxine Waters, tells Democrats to HARASS/Get in OUR faces etc..? No “outcry” or “demanding” she/it needs to be arrested by the SWAMP FBI…ALL Democrats are GARBAGE..Oh..and..FK them AND >>>FK “Pedo” Joey !
Fok the dems. They have destroyed the economy and deserve what’s coming.
He left off……”like they do on us”.
Go Ted Go ! If Maxine and Kamala didn’t get a visit from the Feebs neither should Ted .
Almost as bad as Lightfoot’s call to arms.
In the “Communist Manifesto’s” final section, Marx and Engels point out that the Communist Party supports all revolutionary movements that challenge the existing social and political order.
How DARE anyone say anything against THEM.
Nugent has always thrived on kicking the demmunist beehive. Glad to see he’s still at it.
Typical hypocritical liberals. When antifa and blm were going crazy on American streets, they condoned it all. When a peaceful protest turns into a breach of the Capitol, (mostly because of bad actors in the FBI and the Capitol Police opened doors) it’s an insurrection. Leftist politicians spew their hateful and violent rhetoric and we hear crickets from the media. No penalties. No repercussions. But when a conservative guitarist speaks out, they want his head on a platter. Things have got to change in this country quickly. Violence is a last resort, but maybe Mr. Nugent has a point. The damage that has been done to our great country is monumental. The cheating morons in charge need to be removed. All of the ridiculous executive orders must be reversed. It will take years of conservative leadership to right the ship. We are looking more like a third world country every day
I’m not a fan but he’s right. Revolution and the removal of all traitors and domestic terrorists is the only recourse we have left.
