Militia nut openly calls for Obama`s assassination on Facebook


The head of the Christian American Patriots Militia has put out an open call on Facebook for the assassination of President Obama.

“We now have authority to shoot Obama, i.e., to kill him,” writes Everest Wilhelmsen on his personal Facebook page.

Wilhelmsen continues: ”His willful violations and alienation of our Constitution, constant disregard for our peaceful protests and corruption of all the three branches of government, (i.e., rogue and illegitiimate government), reveal the dictator that he is…. I would be very surprised, if Obama does not leave Washington DC today (Nov. 19th) …never to return, if he is not dead within the month. ”

Wilhelmsen also has a Facebook page he administers, called Christian American Patriots Militia. The page has 1,389 members.

In addition to simply hating the President, and being convinced that he was born in Kenya and is a Muslim, Wilhelmsen is a supporter of the Tea Party, anti-Obamacare, and very concerned about Benghazi. Oh, and he’s also apparently a big supporter for the 2nd Amendment.

The threat against the President – or call for him to be assassinated – was posted two days ago, on November 19, 2013. Oddly, it has yet to be taken down.http://americablog.com/2013/11/militia-nut-openly-calls-obamas-assassination-facebook.html

He needs to be rendered incapable of harming the President, and that needs to happen now.

We can cry foul individually but would be better heard in concert with one another.

harass and intimidate women and medical providers every day.

The Democratic Administration can't be seen as going after the GOP Base in such a blatant manner so they use their resources to go after legal weed instead so they can provide fresh bodies to the Corporate Prison Industry.
