Florida politician running for office calls for execution of President Obama

A Florida man running for a seat in the state legislature is standing behind a Tweet where he wrote 'It's time to arrest the President and 'hang him high.'

Josh Black says he did not expect all the attention he got over his Tweet. He's says he's Tweeted negatively about the President before and he's not backing down on his opinions.

'I know that we don't use hanging as a method of execution here in the U.S. anymore, so be it. Whatever method is applicable for the situation, I just want justice to be served,' said the candidate.

Black says he was having a Twitter conversation with others who oppose many of the President's actions.

In regards to deadly drone strikes against US citizens in the middle east, Black wrote, 'I'm past impeachment. It's time to arrest and hang him high.'

His tweet, where Black agreed with someone who said the president should be 'hung high,' came from anger over a 2011 drone strike that killed Anwar al-Awalki, an American-born al Qaeda planner in Yemen.

Al-Awlaki's son died soon after in a strike officials later admitted was a mistake.

'When you say something you got to own it. And I said what I said, and I'm gonna own it,' Black said.

Despite of all the negative attention, he is still continuing his campaign for the State House as a Republican candidate.

Keep in mind that every Rep and Senator of both collectivist parties know he’s a complete fraud, but they didn’t raise their voices to oppose his win of the POTUS spot. On the contrary, they welcomed him in!

So what do you do with them?

“So what do you do with them?”

They are guilty of the greater sin against the people in my opinion by not upholding their oaths.

RINOs first!

Charles at his trial, by Edward Bower, 1649. He let his beard and hair grow long because Parliament had dismissed his barber, and he refused to let anyone else near him with a razor.

An ironic fear of razors.

1649 was 140 years before the invention of the National Razor over across the Channel.

I thought he would get the attention of the Secret Service and he did.

Nope. I said the same thing on FR in 2000 about Bill Clinton. I was warned by other FReepers that the SS would soon be around and they showed me examples of two other FReepers who had been visited by them. I doubled down and started directing my posts directly to the SS saying they should call ahead about 20 minutes so I could put coffee on and tell them where to get the best donuts in town. I also mentioned that any SS agent who spent an hour with me could no longer be trusted on a detail with Bubba or Algore.

No visit. It's not illegal to say that the due process result of a trial for treason is hanging.

Obungler has given material aid ajd assistance to Al Qaeda.
That meets the black letter legal definition of treason. Hanging

I have to wonder just how bad a POTUS has to get in order for him to be removed from office?

I see nothing in that quoted sentence that says execution. Hanging may merely refer to a fencepost wedgie, which -- while uncomfortable -- is more a mocking thing than something involving death or serious harm.

The article is a complete and total lie. He never called outright for this. He agreed to the sentiments of a tweet that included the phrase, but essentially he advocated that the president broke the law and committed treason, which is true.
