Glenn Beck dedicated most of his radio broadcast today to discussing the shooting of several police officers during a peaceful Black Lives Matter rally in Dallas last night. At one point, Beck interviewed right-wing author Brad Thor, who declared that the Black Lives Matter movement must be demonized and labeled a terrorist organization in response to this attack.
Thor declared that progressives and President Obama are intentionally creating the false impression that "it's open season on young black men by cops" for the purpose of sowing division and discord.
Most police officers are decent people who care about their communities, Thor said, but "these stories where there is a shooting get unbelievable attention."
"I think the problem here is that the progressives love to divide people because that's how they conquer the country," he declared. "They divide people, put them into victim groups or put them into groups and convince the groups they can't talk to each other; this group is set against you, this one is set against you and all that kind of stuff. So what we're seeing is the progressives have been incredibly successful in this country dividing us and that's why we need to be focused on on the truth. We need more people standing up and demonizing a group like Black Lives Matter that calls for the killing of police. At this point, I think Black Lives Matter ought to be labeled a terrorist organization."
