Wrap: Republican Representative Warren Love posted on Facebookthat statue defacers should be ‘hung from a tall tree with a long rope.’
House Minority Leader Gail McCann Beatty said Love has‘forfeited the right to hold elected office.’
“As House members, we have to hold ourselves to a higherstandard and his comments were absolutely out of line.”
Republican leadership referred the issue to the House Ethicscommittee.
