Ted Nugent likens Democrats, media, academics to 'rabid coyotes' who should be shot

Ted Nugent compared multiple groups he opposes to "rabid coyotes" on Friday, adding that you "keep your gun handy" to shoot them on sight.

Nugent, a musician and National Rifle Association board member, made the remarks during a seemingly casual -- yet fiery -- interview with InfoWars host Alex Jones. During the interview, Jones -- a right-wing conspiracy theorist -- said he wanted to know why liberals hate America and "love communism."
"Don't ask why," Nugent said. "Just know that evil, dishonesty and scam artists have always been around and that right now they're liberal, they're Democrat, they're RINOs, they're Hollywood, they're fake news, they're media, they're academia, and they're half of our government, at least."
"So come to that realization," he continued. "There are rabid coyotes running around, you don't wait till you see one to go get your gun, keep your gun handy. And every time you see one, shoot one."


This reminds me of the Khmer Rouge literally... and this will not end well for anyone.

He's projecting.

 

[Hayabusa Rider]

Crazy old Ted. He's a walking facepalm.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

wow, thank god that meeting of the minds was recorded for future generations to... um..... enjoy?

 

[uclaLabrat]

Who? Pretty much only know him from the oceans 11 reference.

 

[Jaskalas]

Directly advocating shooting people? He should be arrested for... what, inciting violence? Terrorist threats?

 

[UberNeuman]

Sounds like a couple of the assholes that have advocated shooting democrats/liberals on this forum.

In Ted’s defense, he caught it from some pussy next door.

Remember, folks. Modern US conservatism is propped up by obscene amounts of cognitive dissonance and projection.

Ted Nugent is just projecting his own right-wing authoritarian, Strongman-enthralled mindset onto libruuuls and any other group he doesn't include in the exclusive group he considers himself a member of.

He is right though, minus the projection.

When the fascist-enabling right-wing authoritarians come out into the streets, in open practice, like rabid dogs they will need to be put down.

This is expected behavior from people badly terrorized as children. They live in a perpetual state of dread and the bravado is there to mask their sense of helplessness. As much as they seek to impress other people with similar feelings and even manage that to varying degrees, their inner life is shallow and bereft of the joy of being. It's a real tragedy their fear creates a certainty their is no such thing as help.

Didn't he dodge the draft as well?

 

[pcgeek11]

Well it is Ted Nugent after all. Did you expect anything else...

 

[MomentsofSanity]

This seems likes a reasonable thing for a member of the board of the NRA to say with zero repercussions.

Haha I was thinking the exact same thing.

This has been posted before but always good for another laugh at this rocker-turned-moron.

I wonder if anyone has ever questioned him about that. I'm to lazy to search but it just sounds like something a '70's rock star would tell a rock mag as a story. Kind of like how the the Stones trashed a hotel room. Did it really happen? Who knows it's just part of the aura that rock stars seem to have.

Rumor has it that he hasn't stopped scratching ever since. Ted's behavior is beyond appalling but seems to be acceptable by conservatives.

Yes, he's repeated it to more than one source, and then also back pedaled, read his wiki, dude is 100% full of shit, just like the great orange one.

Nugent is a fucking moron and not one of my people. That said, his bark is louder than his bite. I actually liked his music in the 70's, but I'm not a fan of him as a person.

I guess that's why Trump loves him.

Also referred to the first black President as an animal. That's definitely why Trump loves him

Spicy mustard, wearing a tan suit, those outrageous acts are definitely missed.

Don't forget no flag pin and not placing hand over heart during national anthem.

Remember those horrors??

His first hit a superficial anthem to the psychedelic moment "Journey to the center of your mind" was the first and last thing I consciously paid any attention to. Unfortunately, it was pretty impossible to avoid hearing "Cat scratch fever" when it hit.
One of the rock bands that was probably assembled expressly to get as many groupies in bed as possible.
LOOOOOOOOSER!
