Right-wing radio host Michael Savage apparently tells radio host Alex Jones that President Obama will arm “Bloods and Crips” gang members in Baltimore in order to start a civil war. They said the riots are the beginning of the civil war. They include gratuitous Nazi references.
Does this sound extreme?
Does this seem a little far-fetched to you?
Recently, the right-wing publication WND published an article titled “Savage: Obama may arm U.S. gangs for race war.”
World Net Daily is a right-wing news publication and Michael Savage is a right-wing radio talk show host.
Warning of a coming “race war,” Savage appeared as a guest on Alex Jones Infowars program Monday, and said President Obama would “deputize and arm gang members such as the ‘Crips and the Bloods’ to keep order in American streets,” writes World Net Daily. Do his comments seem over-the-top?
“Remember my last book, ‘Stop the Coming Civil War’? Guess what. It started,” said Savage.
“Has there been a civil war? Yeah, it’s a slow-burning civil war. What do you think we are looking at here? It’s a race war. These are their shock troops, they don’t have the brown shirts yet, they don’t have the armbands, but soon Obama could deputize them. Isn’t that a natural army for him, Alex? Take the Crips and the Bloods, give them a green uniform and give them a weapon and they’ll keep order in the streets. Won’t they?”
WND claims that Savage’s ideas are not unlike that sparked by critics of then-candidate Obama’s plan, announced at a 2008 appearance in Colorado Springs, to create a “civilian national security force.”
“We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we set,” Obama said at the time. “We’ve got have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Savage told Jones that Obama has “the gangs on the streets on his side, he’s got them awakened, he’s got them armed – they’re armed to the teeth with illegal weapons.
“You’re going to see more race war right up until the Labor Day of 2016 for an obvious reason,” he said, referring to the presidential election.
Agreeing with Jones that Obama’s “agenda is succeeding,” Savage warned: “The guillotines are ready, the guillotines are ready and they are greasing the blades. How much more successful can they be? Internment camps? I mean, what is next with this group of maniacs?”
Savage said Americans “can’t count on the military to protect them from Obama because his administration has purged military leaders who were competent to do so,” writes WND.
“One general after the other was purged like Stalin purged them, only instead of shooting them first they smeared the generals,” he said.
“I don’t think it’s going to come down to the camps, the internment and the martial law,” Savage said, mercifully. “…I think it would upset the economy and the world.”
Is Michael Savage not kind and understanding?
He claimed that Obama won’t declare martial law or force people into internment camps “just yet” because “they’re going to take the street garbage and they’re going to take the illegal immigrants and they’re going to warp the entire election.”
Nice of Savage to refer to people as “street garbage.”
“He’s the smoothest conman America’s ever seen in the White House…He’s performing along the lines of any other ‘petty dictator,’” Savage said. “He is Al Sharpton with a ‘smoother act.’”
Are these statements by Michael Savage questionable?

At the 2015 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the low-key President had a humorous speech with Luther, his “anger translator.”
Some might recognize Luther as Keegan-Michael Key from the Comedy Central series “Key & Peele.”
Did some in the right-wing media believe that the anger translator represented the President’s true nature?
North Charleston Patrolman 1st Class Michael T. Slager will not face the possibility of the death penalty in connection with the shooting of Walter Scott, states the Charleston newspaper Post and Courier.
The circumstances don’t meet the criteria necessary under S.C. law, Charleston County’s chief prosecutor said Monday.
Some news outlets claimed that Slager would be eligible for the death penalty due to his crime.
Ninth Circuit Solicitor Scarlett Wilson said she carefully reviewed the state’s death penalty statute, which lists 22 aggravating circumstances that can trigger the state to seek lethal punishment. None applied in this case, she said.
Those offenses include murders committed during kidnapping, robbery, drug trafficking and a host of other circumstances.
“Under South Carolina law, this case is not death penalty-eligible,” said Wilson. Wilson’s office will be in charge of prosecuting Slager.
“There are aggravating circumstances which can take a murder case from being a maximum of life to death being the maximum sentence. None of those factors are present in this case,” said Wilson.
Right Wing Watch
Neo-Con radio host Michael Savage accused President Barack Obama of driving white men to revolt and – oddly – compared him to Adolf Hitler. He also ignored the history of U.S. service members of color, Right Wing Watch reported.
He said it was the “white man” that defeated Hitler and Hitler’s…white Aryan men. It was a rant that was revolting and made no sense. Savage even manages to offend the Brits.
Who says America doesn’t have free speech? Savage gave this speech with racial overtones on the radio.
Savage’s remarks also ignored the more than 1 million black service members, between 250,000 and 500,000 Latino personnel, and as many as 20,000 Asian-Americans and Native American service members who served in World War II, according to Raw Story.

Here’s the lessons from Ferguson America- Don’t let your kids growup to be thugs who think they can steal, assault & attack cops as a way of life & badge of black (dis)honor. Don’t preach your racist bullshit “no justice no peace” as blabbered by Obama’s racist Czar Al Not So Sharpton & their black klansmen. When a cop tells you to get out of the middle of the street, obey him & don’t attack him as brainwashed by the gangsta assholes you hang with & look up to. It’s that simple unless you have no brains, no soul, no sense of decency whatsoever. And dont claim that ‘black lives matter’ when you ignore the millions you abort & slaughter each & every day by other blacks. Those of us with a soul do indeed believe black lives matter, as all lives matter. So quit killin each other you fuckin idiots. Drive safely.”
