WV GOPer: Clinton Must Be Executed

[MattP]

Source: talking points memo

Michael Folk, a Republican state representative in West Virginia, has called for presumptive presidential nominee Hillary Clinton to be executed over her use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State.

After calling Friday for Clinton to be executed on the National Mall, Folk explained Saturday that he was inspired to call for Clinton's execution after watching Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) questioning of Intelligence Community Inspector General Charles McCullough about the Clinton email controversy.

From the Charleston, West Virginia Gazette ...
The employer of a West Virginia lawmaker says it’s investigating after he said on social media that presidential candidate Hillary Clinton should be publicly executed.
Delegate Michael Folk, R-Berkeley, tweeted to Clinton late Friday afternoon that she should be “should be tried for treason, murder, and crimes against the US Constitution... then hung on the Mall in Washington, DC.”

1. Has the secret service visited this bigot yet?

Hate and violence is all these people want.

[cstanleytech]

19. Probably not and thats because he didnt call for her assassination, you can be sure

though that if he had he would be getting a visit.
Now the real question is how can the voters vote for an asshole that doesnt know that nothing she did is a federal crime worthy of the federal death penalty?

[liberal N proud]

34. Execution, assassination, fine line

Not to mention that it could inspire some radical nut job.

[cstanleytech]

35. Radical nutjobs dont need much inspiration to kill someone.

Take Timothy McVeigh for example.

[Silver_Witch]

2. SO disgusting...

And this is a grown man???

He should be removed from office!

[MariaThinks]

3. Is it not a crime to threaten or cause to threaten a First Lady? (future President)

[meow2u3]

6. Yes it is

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/879

(a) Whoever knowingly and willfully threatens to kill, kidnap, or inflict bodily harm upon—
(1) a former President or a member of the immediate family of a former President;
(2) a member of the immediate family of the President, the President-elect, the Vice President, or the Vice President-elect;
(3) a major candidate for the office of President or Vice President, or a member of the immediate family of such candidate; or
(4) a person protected by the Secret Service under section 3056(a)(6);
shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

9. Looks like this clown has 1, 3, and 4 covered. He should....

....serve each of those three 5 year sentences consecutively.

[meow2u3]

12. I strongly agree

IF he's prosecuted. Sadly, the IOKIYAR phenomenon might come into play here.

[MiniMe]

17. "Freedom of speech, freedom of speech"

What a bunch of BS

[Bradical79]

28. He covered his ass with how he framed it

It's framed as a suggestion of what he thinks should happen after a trial and conviction rather than a real threat.

[George II]

30. Not arguing with you but it seems he never mentioned "convicted" anywhere....

It's encouraging that he works for United Airlines who is very concerned about the "ethics" of their employees. Let's hope he gets fired or at worst a long suspension.

[BlueMTexpat]

14. At the very least, he should be

removed from public office and fined.

[George II]

31. He's a commercial pilot for United Airlines, he's only a delegate to the republican convention.

[George II]

41. The report now is that United Airlines has suspended him. Hope they fire his ass!

[BlueMTexpat]

43. They certainly should! eom

[Warpy]

4. I wonder if this rabbity, insecure little man wants to execute Powell and Rice

because they had the same system Clinton used.

Oh, wait, IOKIYAR. Nothing to see here, move on.

[Festivito]

36. A question no one will ask the idiot. eom

[Spitfire of ATJ]

5. I bet he believes Saddam was behind 9/11 too.

[forest444]

7. I used to hear the same thing from time to time in Mississippi about Bill Clinton.

Even from supposedly educated people.

They also attributed the sudden prosperity in what, during the Raygun-Bush years, had been one of the nation's most stagnant states to their Klansman governor, Kirk Fordice.

And Fordice's own, very-publicized affair with his campaign chairwoman? The fault of the "climate of immorality promoted by Bill Clinton" (of course!).

It was always a circular argument with those people.

[George II]

13. Here come da judge!

"Obama's fault," I ga-unn-tee![/center]

[George II]

21. At least it didn't cost Baylor $65 million to get rid of that bastard.

[forest444]

22. I'm not the Clintons' biggest fan - but the Rethugs owe taxpayers AT LEAST that much

on account of all the witch hunts they engaged in to try to bring those people down.

It was a taxpayer-funded political expense, and we should get that money back even if it means digging under their cellars. I'd start with Paul Singer's laundromat NML in the Caymans.

[RussBLib]

8. this is the kind of unhinged hatred that can inspire unstable individuals

They continually paint Hillary as a fate worse than Armageddon, and I really don't understand the level of hatred here. Until you start watching Fox News, that is.

The kind of opposition the GOP threw at Obama is going to be eclipsed, I'm afraid, by the totally unhinged hatred the GOP has for Hillary. They are continually inciting their already unbalanced followers to do something stupid, and then they plead shock when someone actually acts out.

And they keep whining about how "divided" the country is. Look in the fucking mirror you assholes!

[yurbud]

45. I showed a friend who didn't follow the news the OUTFOXED documentary and he was incredulous

He said, "Is this for real? Is this a real network?"

You would think that would be everybody's reaction, but Fox has pulled the others pretty close to their level.

[shenmue]

10. Hello, Secret Service?

[47of74]

27. And Hello, United Airlines?

That's who he works for. I sure as hell wouldn't want to be on a flight if he's the pilot.

[Democat]

15. He should be in jail

But he only threatened Clinton, so they'll probably let it go.

[PatSeg]

16. It is bad enough that people actually think like that

but the fact that they are stupid enough to say it on social media is really scary. Do these people really not realize that this stuff doesn't just go away and there are repercussions?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

18. It appears his employer United Airlines is taking his comments pretty seriously

[cstanleytech]

24. Uh huh question is are they appalled enough to fire him or just give him a stern

talking to and making him go to his room without his Nintendo?

[yurbud]

44. "This is your captain speaking. The stewardesses tell me a passenger has been caught smoking in..."

the restroom. If you're tired of playing videogames or watching movies on your laptop, you can look up to the front galley and enjoy our in flight hanging. And remember, there is no smoking anywhere on the plane on domestic flights. We thank you for choosing United Airlines for your travel needs today."

[PSPS]

20. Is this what, under other circumstances, would be referred to as a "radicalized individual?"

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

23. I bet this is someone who shouts for "due process" on other issues. nt

[red dog 1]

25. K&R...Thanks for posting

Criminal charges should be filed against this dangerous asshole!

[mwooldri]

26. If we're using that standard..

Then we need to chop his balls for Biblical Adultery. Of course I'm joking but that kind of remark is just begging for a visit from the Secret Service.

[no_hypocrisy]

29. Karl Rove would be standing in front of her at the scaffold

if that's the justification for conviction and execution without due process.

[Marthe48]

32. Michael, you ignorant jerk

it is 'hanged' not hung. Now Folk off!

[Jopin Klobe]

33. " ...calling Friday for Clinton to be executed on the National Mall ..." ...

... I thought you klowns didn't follow "Sharia Law" ...

... oh, and it's illegal to call for the death of a Presidential Nominee ...

... idiots ...

[RandiFan1290]

37. They post this stuff all over Facebook and other sites

FB and the media just ignore it.

[NeoConsSuck]

38. United Suspends Pilot Who Called for Hanging Hillary Clinton

At least there is *some* good news today:

[AgadorSparticus]

39. Good. A start anyways. He needs to be fired.

[cosmicone]

40. I wonder if he is a member of another "progressive" site

[yurbud]

42. How does he feel about president who ordered torture & lied to start war that killed over a million?
