Mike Lee has repeatedly proven he is not a good human being and does not live by the guidelines set out by Christ. He is not somebody who embodies the teachings of the church and he is not somebody who should be allowed to be part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
His repeated bad behavior, malicious comments related to people who have been murdered, and his openly calling for a public execution of man who is currently on trial, thereby biasing the jury pool and making a fair trial unlikely, is too much. He is an embarrassment to the country, to the state, and especially to the LDS church. He needs to be removed and told not to return. Lee needs to be removed from office in disgrace and needs to lose his pension and benefits. Lee needs to be disbarred and banned from public service and most importantly, Lee needs to be excommunicated.
The church needs to act to prevent that man from doing any further harm to the reputation of the church.
Lee is a son of mammon who can no longer be tolerated.
