The man charged with firing on Oakland cops in a highway shootout was on a rampage against liberals and hunting down Glenn Beck enemies. Unemployed carpenter Byron Williams was after the ACLU and the Tides Foundation, a particular favorite villain of Glenn Beck, who has repeatedly lambasted the organization as part of President Obama's "liberal cabal." Williams opened fire on cops earlier this week while on his way to "start a revolution" because he was upset about Congress' "left-wing agenda," according to his mom.

It's too early to know if Beck's attacks were the inspiration for Williams, but the relatively obscure Tides Foundation isn't likely viewed as much of an enemy beyond Glenn Beck's fan base. The group, which describes itself as a promoter of economic justice, robust democracy and a healthy environment, has been ripped repeatedly by Beck as an "army of thugs" behind Obama's agenda, and the "nasty of the nastiest," reports Talking Points Memo.



Thanks for the link sanity.....the guy sounds just like you.

Lord knows I am no fan of Beck's, but why post this when it might be completely unrelated to Beck? If it turns out to be unrelated, then it makes Beck look like a victim....

Also, I may not like what Beck says, but I support his right to say it, although I am completely on board with boycotting his sponsors, unfortunately they are mostly gold dealer... which means they already feed on the naive and stupid

So this gun–toting, rugged individualist mofo still lives with his mom?
Still, he'll be moving out after the trial, I suppose...

I could name suspects, but it might get me in trouble with the mods

Hell, even wilbur (who doesn't love me one bit) will send me recipes when asked (and damn good one too, I might add.)
