Republican: Obama should be hanged

'Execution is the appropriate punishment for traitors'

Joshua Black, 31-year-old Republican candidate for Florida House District 68

A GOP candidate for the Florida House of Representatives is under fire from his own party and said he’s been visited by the Secret Service after he tweeted Monday that President Obama should be hanged for treason.
Joshua Black, 31-year-old Republican candidate for Florida House District 68, quoted a tweeter, saying “I’m past impeachment. It’s time to arrest and hang him high.” Black added, “agreed.”
Chris Latvala, a Republican candidate for House District 67, shot back: “You aren’t seriously calling for the killing of Obama are you? I know you are crazy but good heavens. U R an embarrassment.”
Black then replied, “Execution is the appropriate punishment for traitors. Don’t you have a race? Don’t you have a primary? #MindYourOwnBusiness?”



Latvala responded, “I make it my business when so called GOP candidates become an embarrassment to my beloved party. You need to go take your medicine #TinFoilHat #Crazy.”
Black later expounded on his comments – even going so far as quoting Jesus – in a Facebook posting, saying:
“To everyone who was offended that I said that the POTUS should be hanged for treason. This is the man who droned al-Awlaki on ‘suspicion of terrorism’ – not proof – and later killed his 15-year-old son for nothing more than being his son. …
“This would be exactly what the president has done to others, and, as Jesus said, ‘the measure ye mete, it shall be meted to you again.’ I make no apologies for saying that the president is not above the People. If ordinary Americans should be executed for treason, so should he.
“So, don’t stop at impeachment. Remove him. Try him before a jury (the very right that he arbitrarily denied to al-Awlaki and his 15-year-old son), and, upon his sure convictions, execute him. Thus has he done, thus it should be done to him.”

Black said he doesn’t worry that the U.S. Secret Service will visit him, and the agents reportedly showed up on his doorstep Tuesday afternoon.
He told WND, “As I have been explaining all day, too many times we stop pursuing justice against #criminalpoliticians after they leave office. Not this time. We need to send a firm and clear message that no government official is above the law. That’s the purpose of my statement.”
GOP State chair Lenny Curry tweeted that Black’s comments were, “Deplorable. Despicable. Hateful.” He added, “He should go home and stay home.”
Local GOP chairman Michael Guju blasted Black’s comments: “It is impossible to accept this statement. This is wholly unacceptable and unduly provocative.”
Black resigned from the Pinellas County Republican Executive Committee at Guju’s request.
According to WTSP-TV 10, Curry, Latvala and Florida Gov. Rick Scott have called for Black to drop out of the Florida House District 68 race.
But Black said he won’t leave the Republican Party or the race: “I do not take orders from the governor. I’m staying in the race.”

You can bet most liberal/leftist media sources will very conveniently leave out the fact the guy is black, when they report this story. Or perhaps they'll brand him him as being "white african-american", like they declared George Z to be "white hispanic".

Florida Republican Calls Obama a Traitor – Liberals Whine and Moan

By Onan Coca / 23 January 2014

One Florida Republican candidate for the State House is learning a hard lesson – people don’t like to hear honesty.
Joshua Black, a GOP State House candidate and an African-American, has caused much weeping and gnashing of teeth with a recent tweet.

"@civilwarcometh: @BrandonMArms @RedNationRising I'm past impeachment. It's time to arrest and hang him high. http://t.co/Li1e0fzCLi" Agreed

Needless to say, his agreement with a tweet suggesting President Obama be arrested and hanged, caused an uproar. At this point many politicians would pull the plug, call their <acronym title="Google Page Ranking">PR</acronym> consultant and begin issuing many apologies. However, I think we may be learning that Joshua Black doesn’t care so much about politics as he does about our country. Instead of backtracking and apologizing, Mr. Black doubled down.

@ChrisLatvala Execution is the appropriate punishment for traitors. #BenedictArnold #ReadAmericanHistory #criminalpoliticians

And then he tripled down.

@RedNationRising @BrandonMArms @civilwarcometh The execution should come after a lawful conviction, by both the Senate and a jury.

Wow.
Maybe it was impolitic for Mr. Black to go straight to the execution phase of the trial, but it is the logical outcome of all of those people who believe that President Obama has committed treason. Why? Because death is the punishment for treason.
For those of you wondering if Mr. Black has had to deal with the Secret Service yet – yes, he has. The Secret Service interviewed him and determined that he was no threat to the President. Mr. Black wasn’t calling for assassination, he was calling for a lawful arrest, trial and judgement.

@LardomD Never called for lynching. Obama did that to al-Awaki and his teenage son already. #injustice

Later Mr. Black took to Facebook to explain his thinking on the subject and why he wouldn’t be apologizing.



I know this may be dangerous… but I like the intestinal fortitude that Mr. Black has shown. If you read through his Facebook page or his Twitter feed you will see that the man is an ardent supporter of liberty and conservatism. He knows why he believes what he believes, and he is very willing (and able) to defend those beliefs. We need more men like Joshua Black, and it’s my opinion that we should be defending and supporting him now. We can’t let good men like him be chased out of the public arena simply because he was honest and chose not to use the weasel words that other politicians would have chosen.
Stand strong, Mr. Black, there are many others standing with you.
