Moms With Guns founder calls for Obama's assassination.

Sharing a photo on her Facebook page of President Obama’s recent visit to Texas, the founder of the Moms With Guns website commented on the photo, stating: “Where is an assasin (sic) when you need one?”

The post has since been taken down and the Moms With Guns Facebook account has been closed by founder Kathy Perkins, but not before Liberaland was able to save a screen capture, seen below.

One commenter, Todd Thozeski of Seven Hills, Ohio, commented on her Facebook share, “Duh,’ while Liberaland noted another wrote, “I know…I’m amazed it hasn’t happened yet.”

Perkin’s Moms With Guns website and her twitter account, @MomsWithGuns , are still up, but contain no reference to her wishing for the assassination of the President of the United States.

Our biggest threats have always been within our own borders.

I fear people like this way more than a threat from abroad.

with their weapons and extremist views. Domestic terrorists that are so fucked up in the head that they run around crowing about being patriots!

I hardly see any difference in them and hardcore terrorists from the ME.

and there is an abundance of irresponsible and unscrupulous politicians who pander to these people, and their fears/resentments. Such pols are fostering extremism.

It doesn't matter at this point. These people are being given the signals to continue their spew by their bagger talk radio or congressional whores.

I have no sympathy for what happens to the stupid who do things like this.

There's always Sharron Angel's creative problem solving, also known as

"A Second Amendment Remedy"

Yes, there was once a Nevada Senate hopeful back in 2010 that used that term when she ran unsuccessfully against Harry Reid. Truly one of the most jaw dropping things I have ever heard any political candidate say in my lifetime!

Christian Conservatives Praying for God to Kill Obama

11/18/09
John Cook






... someone's coined a bumper sticker slogan encouraging people to pray for Barack Obama. But here's the funny part: it's really a secret Christian code for "Kill the President!"

Psalm 109 is known as "A Cry for Vengeance," which is one of the foundational values of Christianity, along with small-business tax cuts. It's actually quite a little psalm, as psalms go, and the opening lines sound really familiar:

Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me:they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.


Then it gets into the part where you pray for God to smite Barack Obama and condemn Malia and Sasha to poverty for the rest of their lives, a fate they deserve because they sprang from the loins of the sinful:

Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.


The Psalm 109:8 gag is one in what's becoming a long line of cheekily coded Obama death threats: There was the classified ad someone placed in a Pennsylvania paper hoping that he follows in "the footsteps of Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and Kennedy," all of whom were assassinated. And there was the gun-toting New Hampshire teabagger with a sign saying it is time to "water the tree of liberty"—a reference to Thomas Jefferson's reminder that the tree of liberty must be watered from time to time with the "blood of tyrants and patriots."
