I was reading through the various threads on the Election board. I didn’t see too much wrong with his posts. They were a little repetitive, and I didn’t really agree with much off it, but there wasn’t really anything too crazy.

But then there was this:

> [@Handicapping the 2012 GOP presidential nomination](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/handicapping-the-2012-gop-presidential-nomination/571160/615):
>
> I see that people did see a decline, of people burning our flag in contempt, etc. Of Iran taking hostages and there still being Iranians alive afterwards.

I thought I just misunderstood, but then I kept reading and I guess I understood perfectly. His response to 53 Americans being held hostage in Iran? **Kill them all.** Every man , woman and child. Tens of millions of people.

That’s full on sociopath right there.
