The Tea Party Race Problem #I_LOST_COUNT

This is a guy who needs a serious visit from the Secret Service. From The Examiner, via Crooks and Liars:

California libertarian and Tea Party darling Jules Manson is caught calling for the assassination of President Barack Obama and his children. On Sunday, many Facebook users were greeted by the shocking spectacle of a California libertarian and Ron Paul supporter by the name of Jules Manson advocating for the assassination of President Barack Obama. Manson, a failed politician, recently ran for and lost a seat on the City of Carson’s City Council last March. The following is the text of Manson’s racist, treasonous

“Assassinate the (expletive deleted by examiner editors) n****r and his monkey children”

I saw this last night and was getting ready to post on it today. I then noticed the actual article from the Examiner is gone, giving you an “access denied error”. The Examiner runs the same software I do, Drupal, An access denied error means the article is there, but just not published any longer. If it was deleted you would be given a 404 error. The actual screen grab of Manson’s Facebook post is still available here though.

To further prove this is true, Manson has posted a public…ummm I guess apology?

Once you have taken the position that anyone should be imprisoned for careless emotionally driven remarks that had no real substance, you deserve what your government has become. All I can really say is to be careful what you wish for because setting such a precedence can come back to bite you. I have felt deeply regretful and apologized for my past mistakes. Can you do the same?

OK – maybe not an apology, but more of a “how dare you call for my arrest!” Well threatning the President of the United States is a Class D felony under federal statute, which it has been for decades. You can’t yell fire in a crowded theater and you can’t say you want to kill the President (and throwing in his daughters shows the absolute scum this guy is) . Add in the racist comment and we might even have a race/hate crime here.

It should also be noted that this guy is a huge Ron Paul supporter. I expect Ron Paul to come out and distance himself from such dangerous rhetoric, but I got a funny feeling he won’t.
