Professor Calls For Republicans To Be 'Lined Up And Shot' Over AHCA Vote
Campus Reform is reporting that John Griffin, a professor from the Art Institute of Washington, called for Republicans to be "lined up and shot" for voting to pass the American Health Care Act (AHCA) in the House of Representatives.
One might think it was hyperbolic — not so, according to Griffin (image courtesy of Campus Reform):
"They should be lined up and shot. That's not hyperbole; blood is on their hands."

A simple point made long is often a cover — and this was long. Griffin apologized for his "language," but nowhere in his amended Facebook post is an apology for saying House Republicans should be "lined up and shot." He could have easily said: "I don't really believe Republicans should be killed. I apologize for that as well." He didn't — which is very telling.
