And Trump said “Take him out!” His people responded. Only one way to understand his rhetoric at the time.But because he is now POTUS, his minions refuse to remember the attacks on Obama, because Obama brought it on himself by being a secret Muslim.Of course, being a secret Russian operative is different, because Obama!
The racists are certainly angry, and CNN overreaction will spite only them. In reality, most people are only angry it was only an effigy she was holding up.
Trump has proposed that millions lose healthcare due to Medicaid slashes and may die ultimately, because of this. But sure, let’s focus on being offended because a comic tastelessly mocked trump.
I agree completely with DTROUTMAN—I hardly think a child who has borne the name “Barron” was traumatized by seeing a very fake beheading of the bully who fathered him!
Does anyone really think Donny let Barron see Kathy’s link, it was hours after it appeared before I read about it and some time after that that I saw it.
Where are all the snow flakes who were supporting free speech last week when college students didn’t want to hear right-wing agitators? Isn’t this free speech? Worthy of defending even if we disagree? The right wing would fight you if this was done to Obama and you questioned it. Now they are outraged!
I hope when Trump loses his head it isn’t Kathy Griffin that has to do it.
I don’t care for Kathy Griffin’s style of “humor,” but she owes no one an apology for this photo. For 8 years, “conservatives” insisted they had a 1st Amendment right to hang Obama in effigy on their front lawns. In that same manner, Kathy Griffin has the 1st Amendment right to pose with a fake bloody Trump head. “Conservatives” make the argument that the freedom of speech includes being able to be offensive. So if you find this photo offensive, shut up and deal with it.
“Conservatives” also never lived up to the family values they said they believed in with their treatment of obama. Jesus would have had nothing to do with these folks, many of whom claim to be followers of Christ. So no, we aren’t forgetting their nonsense under obama.
I always thought the term “comedian” used to describe her was a reach. Thought that way back when she was on Seinfeld for a few arcs.
This was planned all along. She knew people were going to get ticked off. She’ll be back “on top” of whatever pile of excrement she wants in a brief time.

It was stupid and way over the top, but think of the hundreds of times we saw folks lynching Obama in effigy.

Makes partisan politics look like a serious mental condition rather than a means to benefit we the people.

Her Mean Girl shtick got old years ago. It was a desperate attempt for attention; ironically, will put her back on the D !ist.

Ted Nugent was defended by Trump after Nugent suggested Obama’s head should be chopped off.

Yes, trump defended nugent for his disgusting comments about obama and this was at a time when the obama girls were 7 and 9 years old.

Waiting for an apology from those who posted Hillary in crosshairs memes. But yes, Kathy Griffin was over the top, and not in a good way.
