MURDEROUS: New Hampshire Libertarians appear to endorse presidential assassinations [View all]

Libertarians are by definition a selfish bunch — but the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire (where the state motto of “Live Free or Die” is emblazoned on every license plate) can now add wishful murderous thinking to the list of extremely unattractive qualities that they possess.

That’s a conclusion supported by a post that someone in the New Hampshire Libertarian Party’s social media department decided was completely appropriate to distribute on Twitter on this Presidents’ Day of 2023.

The tweet proclaims their party’s utter lack of respect for the office of the presidency in this country and then goes on to demonstrate actual complete contempt for our system of government by appearing to endorse the removal of anyone holding the presidency via assassination.

It’s difficult to interpret their post any other way, given the fact that these New Hampshire Libertarians illustrated their statement that they “can at least respect the way some of them ended” with photos of the four American presidents whose lives were ended by an assassin’s bullet.
