Talk Radio Host Calls for Violence Against Immigrants
The SuperTalk 99.7WTN radio host suggested to a "boisterous" crowd of nearly 1,000 in Franklin, Tennessee that one way to solve the immigration problem is to pick up a gun and "shoot" undocumented immigrants.

When Phil Valentine yelled, 'Shoot him', the crowd actually cheered. Listen here.

'Sharing the stage' with the hate-talk jock were State Senator Bill Ketron (R-Murfreesboro), State Representative Tom DuBois (R–Columbia), and State Representative Glen Casada (R–College Grove).

Minutemen co-founder Jim Gilchrist and Valentine's longtime co-conspirator, US Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn were scheduled to appear but failed to show.

3. How about violence against employers hiring illegals?
Oh... Never mind, that would be the beginning of some sort of Revolution, and we can't have that.
