Bob Beckel’s Shocking On-Air Claim About San Fran Nudists: ‘Most of Them Were Gang Banged Probably’ as Kids

Nov. 21, 2012 7:50am Billy Hallowell

Bob Beckel Makes Shocking Gang Bang Claim About Nudists

Photo Credit: Fox News

Fox News’ Bob Beckel is known for frequent slips of the tongue. He made a Mormon cult joke during the 2012 president campaign, has used the F-word numerous times on the air and issued some less-than-favorable language to describe at least one prominent Republican, to name a few faux pas. On Tuesday night’s episode of “The Five,” Beckel made yet another head-turning proclamation — that most nudists in San Francisco, California, were “gang banged probably” as children.

The comment was made as the show’s hosts discussed whether nudists should be allowed to roam freely in San Francisco. On Tuesday, city leaders did, indeed, ban public nakedness – a controversial move that some feared would constitute a crackdown on free speech rights in the city.

While discussing this development, Dana Perino asked her co-hosts, “What happened to these people as children that they don’t want to wear any clothes?” After Andrea Tantaros said that it’s clear that nudists merely want attention, Beckel chimed in, clearly seeing his “in” to delve into his theory about why these individuals enjoy shedding their clothing.

“Most of them were gang banged probably,” he said, with his co-hosts clearly looking shocked. “I don’t know. They could have had sexual assault [on them]?”

Apparently Beckel’s on-air compatriots weren’t the only ones startled. As they laughed at his odd quip, it appeared as though producers were speaking into his earpiece from the control room. The host awkwardly responded out loud to what were likely some chastising over his choice of words.

“I didn’t use crude language. I apologize for crude language,” Beckel responded, with the camera still focused on his face. “C’mon, you can’t hang me with that. That is not right. There was nothing wrong with that.”

About the ONLY THING in the world Bob Beckel has said or could say that I agree with.

FACT: Molested kids grow up with serious trauma and act out in entirely anti-social ways, until and unless they get healed. Only seen them healed by proper ministry of the Holy Spirit and Healing of the Blood of Jesus for all their injuries and their sins of consequences – natural consequences, but sins of separation from Jesus.

  I don’t care if he is a former drug user or alcoholic. If it is former I would consider that water under the bridge.
  
  But having a view point of let’s share everything because, I spent years in dissipation, that is a philosophy worth of derision. There is a better word than derision. Just say the philosophy needs to be debunked.

Beckel is no longer a worthy member of “The Five” and his behaviour is a disgrace.His sarcastic, rude, insulting, ignorant ( in the classic sense) confrontational style may have once garnered interest from the viewing public, but it no longer does even that. Surely the producers have a minimum standard of on-screen behaviour? Beckel has transcended even that low water mark.

When Jaun Williams subs for Beckel it becomes a much better show. Williams is able to make the same points without the name calling and bombast. But then Williams is a gentleman, something that Beckel clearly is not. It is painfully clear that the other members of ‘The Five’ do not like Beckel and that dislike is colouring the show for the viewers. Every show that includes Beckel becomes a 60 minute confrontation between ‘The Four’ and ‘The One’.

For the sake of the show it is time for Beckel to go.

  I’ll take Beckel over Biden any day. I believe that Beckel is the type of Democrat that when you get to local matters as opposed to state or national letter, you might find much to agree on. He would probably make a good neighbor too.
  
  I can’t see Biden making a good neighbor. Can you see discussing NASCAR with Biden or Michelle Obmam?

I don’t recommend it, but if you’ve ever seen photos of the celebrated public depravity at the Folsom Street Fair, you’ll see that public nudity is only the tip of the iceberg.

Google it if you’re curious about what the fuss is all about. You’ll want some bleach handy. (Not suitable for work.)

And by the way, the Folsom Street Fair is considered a scheduled event, so it’s not subject to this ordinance.

And the abused and abusers have what social and political affiliations? I bet the majority are socialists with no morals or modesty. I don’t watch the five because of Beckel . He is a hypocrite. He wants us to give up our money and our way of life but he lives high on the hog. He wants us to be socially conscience about people then he’d better not ask for such a big salary, live in very modest house, ride the subway like the rest of us.

Before Bob says any more he should try and live on the median income of $42,000.

And now Bob is a psychologist. I wonder why is he still on TV, He is white, therefore and angry white man.

  Conservatives will never miss an opportunity to stick it to a fellow human being.
  
  Theblaze has to stop characterizing statements made as exaggerations to make a point. Just as “A Modest Proposal” wasn’t really in favor of cannibalism , so the point that these nudists did not experience a normal sexualization should be taken seriously.
  
  Mr. Beckel is making a conservative argument. Many male Republicans, because of their chosen lifestyle, might disagree.

  Talking about Massive fraud, I was watching CNBC. I know it is part of NBC, but there are a few good shows on it like Kudlow.
  
  60 minutes was running an old piece on organized shoplifting by illegal aliens. It is massive. If paying for shoplifting accounts for 2% of the purchase price of everything you buy, might voter fraud be as easy. After all scrubbing voter rolls (using the Social Security death notices) is considered racism as is voter ID. If you can’t put metrics in place to measure things, how do you know what is going on. Democrats refuse to put in metrics.
  
  The shoplifters use multiple names, get deported, illegally re enter & get rearrested & nothing effective is done about it. A political system that would allow this would allow massive voter fraud.

  Other people have said it before me. I don’t know if they used the word metrics.
  
  But in the 6 Sigma world they say “you can’t improve what you can’t measure.” We are measuring what exactly in elections?
  
  The progressive reply is that they are willing to tolerate much vote fraud before 1 person might be inconvenienced at getting registered because we allow that is so hard.
  
  That & vote fraud is insignificant (you are more likely to get struck by lightening than to see voter fraud or so the progs lie.
