      I'm shocked it took THIS long to get him on air.  I'm sure it's only a matter of time before joe-the-tax-criminal and Joe Horn get their own show on Faux.  Only a faux  could sink low enough to glamarize murder. Congrats

        I guess you have not been aware of the BIAS and hypocrisy that PMS-NBC or even CNN has been airing for years now.  Hypocritical thinking is the promotional theme.      Here is their theme:

        Hypocrisy is the most difficult and nerve-racking vice that any man can pursue; it needs an unceasing vigilance and a rare detachment of spirit. It cannot, like adultery or gluttony, be practiced at spare moments; it is a whole-time job.

      It wasn' t even HIS home-- it was his neighbors. After he accosted them, they turned on him, and he killed one.

      What was hilarious about this is that the discussion involved trashing 911 operators and cops who don't happen to like this kind of escalating behavior.

      And this has to do with taxes... how?

      Of course, they have to dehumanize the victims by calling them "illegals", as if that's somehow more justified. Of course, to the Fox News viewers that is probably perfectly fine, even if they hadn't been burglars.

      As far as I'm concerned, Joe Horn is a murderer and should be in jail. But in Texas, he's a model citizen.

        I do not understand why these Klan meetings are still being called tea party's. They have nothing to do with higher taxes unless all of those people are making over $250,00 a year. It's an excuse to get out and act like fools because you don't like the fact that the black guy won but you can't say that so call it outrage over taxes.

        He didn't know that they were illegals when he shot at them, so their status should be irrelevant to this discussion. That's first.

        Next, they were burglarizing a neighbor's home. Texas law doesn't cover protecting a neighbor's home using deadly force. He was guilty of attempted murder and murder, but he got off - it doesn't change the fact that what he did was wrong under any fair examination.

        Lastly, he was being told to not shot them because the cops were there, and not only might he have injured or killed a cop who might have been just the other side of the fence, but the cops might have shot him because he was shooting a gun towards them! He disregarded a lawful order from the police dispatcher, and showed reckless disregard for human life.

        But FoxNews pretends he's a hero! It's sickening.

      Oh, and they are lying - he was NOT asked to watch the house. He didn't even know the neighbors.

      I'm sorry, but I have to make one more comment. This video is simply disgusting. All that's missing is that the crowd gets out the noose and strings someone up.

      And Joe Horn shot the men in the back. They were running away when he shot them. He didn't have to shoot them, no matter what he tells himself when he's alone at night.

      Texas and Glen Beck, does it get any better?

       And I thought no one was worse than Rush and O'Reilly.  Why is this man walking around free?

      Is that a "Git 'Em Glenn" sign I see?  Ridiculous.

      This thing has the feel of a religious show. How many of these people are there out there?  More than showed up at the Tea Parties?  I think so.  This worries me. It really does.
