The radio station has officially terminated the contract of Joe Walsh following our persistent efforts. Thank you for maintaining your focus on this outcome until the employer finally took action. Please remain diligent in monitoring local media for any similar instances of harmful rhetoric.

In the wake of the Dallas shooting, former Illinois Rep. Joe Walsh tweeted these words: "This is now war. Watch out Obama. Watch out Black Lives Matter punks." Mr. Walsh has his own syndicated radio show. With a threat against our Commander in Chief, a case could be made for his arrest. At the very least, the combination of threats and hate speech should never come from a man with the power of a microphone. Let's hold Joe Walsh accountable and demand that he be removed from his job immediately.

It's bad enough Joe Walsh calls the President a traitor and that he hates America. This isn't the first veiled threat he's made against Obama. He needs to be relieved of his job.
Please do not keep this man on the air. Here is why: Threatening is a class E felony under U.S. Code Title 18, Section 871 #LockHimUp #JoeWalsh #BLM
In almost any country in the world, Walsh's statements would be treasonous and he would be arrested. There are certainly some unbalanced people who will heed his call to "war."
Threatening the President is not 'free speech' it is a crime. He should no longer be on the air to incite people to violence.
It is unacceptable for anyone, let alone a former elected representative, to incite violence and to threaten the POTUS and an entire race of human beings simply because he has a microphone and hate in his blood.
This is unacceptable behavior.
GET HIM FIRED. NOW. LITERALLY OUTRAGOUS.
