Updated: Secret Service investigates Baldasaro for saying Clinton should face firing squad
Londonderry lawmaker, Trump vets co-chair, doubles down on controversial remarks in WMUR interview
UPDATED 6:47 PM EDT Jul 20, 2016
The fallout from Republican state Rep. Al Baldasaros remarks that Hillary Clinton should be put in the firing line and shot for treason came quickly on Wednesday, with the most serious reaction coming from the U.S. Secret Service.

Wednesday, Baldasaro, told WMUR.com:
Im a military man first, and anyone who takes information about our CIA or Secret Service and people at our embassy and puts it out on a server where anyone can grab it, putting Americans in danger to be killed, should be held accountable.
As far as Im concerned, it is treason and the penalty for treason is the firing squad or maybe its the electric chair now, Baldasaro said.
Baldasaro is well-known in New Hampshire for his blunt style, both during the presidential campaign and at times when speaking on the floor of the New Hampshire House. The national media has come to know Baldasaro during the campaign.

OP
Sounds as though he will go down ranting. Maybe he can bunk with the Bundy clan in fed lockup. nt

Wow...this person is completely unhinged. But I would still consider the statement political speech

Highly irresponsible rhetoric, but nowhere near the legal definition of incitement.

husband of another NH state rep. that's as crazy as Baldasaro. DeLemus is currently in the Federal can (and probably mating) with the Bundy inbreds.

Al Baldasaro is not taking his medication, someone needs to give him a horse tranquilizer.

Not a true threat that should be prosecuted.
