McCain-Palin Supporter on Obama: "Kill him" (Just happened today)

[Shakespeare]

They're still at it.

Multiple TPM Readers are flagging this blood-curdling moment at a Sarah Palin rally in Pennsylvania today, courtesy of the Times-Tribune:

Chris Hackett addressed the increasingly feisty crowd as they await the arrival of Gov. Palin.

Each time the Republican candidate for the seat in the 10th Congressional District mentioned Barack Obama the crowd booed loudly.

One man screamed "kill him!"

No word on whether Hackett, who was -- ahem -- warming up the crowd for Palin, suggested that this isn't really considered acceptable political rhetoric.

3. Exactly!

I don't care who it is, and I don't care who's rally it happens at, that stuff is totally unacceptable, AND illegal.

That person needs to be locked up now!
