UPDATED: YOU’RE FIRED! Right Wing Talker Laments “Boring” Impeachment Proceedings, wishes for a School Shooting
That’s right, folks. Yesterday, Denver right wing radio screamer, Chuck Bonniwell, said on live radio that the Trump impeachment proceedings were so boring that, “You know, you wish for a nice school shooting to interrupt the monopoly.” His co-host immediately recoiled at the statement, but it was too late, he’d already said it. Bonniwell is well known in Colorado for his insulting and boorish behavior on the radio, but this one tops them all. This is how cold and cruel the right wing has become. Especially in the days of Trump, nothing is too crass or too disgusting as to be off-limits for national television or radio. Bonniwell actually made light of the epidemic of murderous school shootings to denigrate the constitutional process that is occurring now in DC.
Makes me want to puke.
UPDATE:
Ol’ Chuck was just fired for his comment and being an insensitive jerk. ‘Bye.
Does the braindead incel think “monopoly” and “monotony” mean the same things? OK fine. May every rabid nutjob with murderous intent practice at Chuck’s place. He can have the monopoly on crazed shootings, and it will never become a monotony to me to hear that yet lonewolf weirdo was arrested at Chuck’s.
1That is the thuglicans in a nutshell.
2They see all of human existence, and especially politics, as nothing more then a game with winners and losers.
And they want to be “winners” at any cost.
Improving humanities condition or any effort that looks to the public good instead of a very narrow private interest is, to them, a losers idea.
Others lives mean nothing but a a prop that they can use whenever useful.
This is why they love to “own the libs” by being as outrageous as possible and delighting in the displeasure of those who are offended by separating children, caging them, selling country out, embracing the murder lobby (nra) and list goes on and on.
As many have said cruelty is the goal.
It is a sign of “victory” to thuglicans when they can be cruel to people, because only “winners” get that “right”, and they get an extra thrill up their leg when they can do it out in public.
Was he inciting a school shooting? Too bad they can’t take him away in handcuffs for it.
3Since Aurora, home of the Columbine shooting, is a suburb of Denver, will that help his chances of getting his well deserved, prompt running out of town on a rail?
4O/T? Well, well, well. (Some of you may have seen this already.) https://www.politicususa.com/2019/12/18/trump-supports-iimpeachment.html?fbclid=IwAR1CMol4nOSG6qyXohq0Irg6atY0ZejuT3ARf3DvIDfKCVVo9fnY4ts3E9U
5Well, Chuck just made my list of Evil Rat Bastards Who Will Burn In Hell.
6Chuck Bonniwell is officially an asshole.
Sorry for the language, momma.

8Well said.
Me too, el Jefe. Me too.
9“Fox News on line one, Chuck.”
10Chuck is the spiritual kin of Attila the Hun, who fortunately did not have a radio blog inasmuch as he was born too soon.
11And they replaced him with Sebastian Gorka. So there’s that…
12The good news is that he has been fired.
Actually, I didn’t sense that his co-host was all that disturbed or disgusted by his comments. Conceivably it was her laughter that made me suspicious. /s
His comments: ““You know, you wish for a nice school shooting to interrupt the monopoly . . . which no one would be hurt.” I suspect he has no idea of the emotional impact and long-lasting trauma undergoing an event like a “nice school shooting” would have on those children. Or adults, for that matter. Perhaps, one day, he will be in a “nice workplace shooting” and have to report on the impact first hand.
As Buttermilk Sky suggested, Fox News may want him to join their on-air *talent*. He and Tucker Carlson could compete to see who is the most reprehensible and disgusting person. Or, just possibly, he is even too low for Fox News.

14Jaime @ 13,
15Sorry to say this, but we may see an uptick in shootings, just because Chuckie put the thought out there.
Well he got the shooting he wanted.
They should make him go in and clean all the blood etc by himself with a toothbrush and be forced to go to all ceremony’s and be pointed out, in public and loudly, as the man who was asking for this shooting.

16And yet here is another answer to his prayers

I am sure he will claim complete innocence of incitement and his “prayers and thoughts” as a “good” christian.
17Take heart, good people! Once upon a time there was a radio bloviator like that in Michigan but he got taken off the air and very quickly disappeared into the ether. It seems that only the radio “kept him alive.” It may take longer these days to truly remove Chuckie simply due to technology but his judgment day is of his own making.
