Comedian Christopher Titus Says If Sarah Palin Elected President He Will "Hang out on Grassy Knoll all the Time...Loaded & Ready"

Did comedian Christopher Titus threaten to assassinate Sarah Palin if she wins general elections by saying if 'she gets elected president, I am going to hang out on the grassy knoll all the time... loaded and ready.'

Did comedian Christopher Titus call for Sarah Palin's assassination if she was elected president of the United States? He is quoted as saying, 'If she gets elected president, I am going to hang out on the grassy knoll all the time... loaded and ready.' Wow, that sounds like something we have heard from the fringe on the right about then-candidate Barack Obama presidency. All my readers know I can't stand Sarah Palin, but I certainly wouldn't call for her death.

UPDATE#1: Christopher Titus issued an apology of sorts on his Facebook page, though he still took "shots" at Sarah Palin:

While sitting in a comedy club with another comedian doing a podcast after listening to Sarah Palin’s stupid comments about Paul Revere–something we all learned about in the first grade– I popped off. More than anything, I made a joke about a horrible tragedy that befell a great President. To the Kennedy family, my heartfelt apologies. To Ms. Palin’s family, this would infuriate me if it were said about my family. Apologies to you as well.

The comment was based on the fact that America has set the bar so low with what we accept as a possible leader. Just imagine Sarah Palin sitting in a negotiation with Putin, Ahmadinejad or Hu Jin Tao. Let’s all take a deep breath, and stop the death threats. Apologies all around.
Comedy club, comedian, bad joke. Common sense would tell anyone that I was not actually threatening to kill anyone.

I wish this many people had gotten fired up in May when Insight Youth Project held a comedy show to raise money to get homeless teens off the streets. It was like pulling teeth to get people to buy tickets, and a lot of seats sat empty while Dana Carvey, Kevin Nealon and Billy Gardell performed.
