Bay Area Wanker of the Day
Brian Sussman, whose home base is Hate Talk 560 KSFO, launched into a rant about Islamist Terror this evening, recounting a list of terror events of the last few decades. A lot of killing has been done in the name of the God of Abraham in recent years, a lot.
Brian focused on that violence committed by people who follow the prophet Mohammed. He didn't cover the Jesus/Moses contingent. And he freely mixed incidents of terror and incidents of war, because violence committed by foreigners is terror by definition.
I'm not sure where he started, because he was up to the mid-eighties when I tuned in. But a caller reminded Brian about the Pirates of the Barbary Coast. Yeah, there we go, let's cast that net wide.
Another caller complained that the Suss-inator was lumping things together in a bigoted way. "Why don't you call the bombings of civilians by the US 'Catholic' or 'Evangelical' terrorism?"
Hmm, will Brian's mighty intellect rise to the task? Will he give this caller with a foreign accent a smackdown of logic and facts? Will the scientific mind of the ex-meteorologist separate truth from fiction? No, that wouldn't be our dear Sussy-boy. He gets into a yelling match. And there's nothing quite as intimidating as an ex-weather-mimbo worked into a froth.
The caller angrily said "You can't kill a billion people."
Sussy replied, "We should try. We should try. We should try."
Brian Sussman called for the extermination of 1 billion Muslims on his radio show today. Three times.
Update: Letter to Suss and response. In comments.
