Kathy Griffin Can’t Be Criminally Prosecuted for What She Did — and That’s Great
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/448158/kathy-griffin-trump-decapitation-no-prosecution

Quote
The picture of Kathy Griffin holding a replica of President Trump’s severed head is disturbing, and it makes sense that people are upset.

What does not make sense, however, is the fact that people are calling for Griffin to be investigated by the Secret Service and/or criminally prosecuted over it.

In order for something like this to qualify as a criminal threat, it has to be a “threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm” that was “knowingly and willfully made” — and no reasonable person could possibly think that this is the case when it comes to Kathy Griffin. I understand if you’re saying you’re upset. I understand if you’re saying that you’re sick of seeing President Trump be slammed by the celebrities who spent eight years gushing over President Obama. Hell, I even understand if you are wondering what our culture is coming to — those are all takes that a reasonable person could have.

First of all, the First Amendment is not absolute. You sound like a leftist moron.

Some of the comments are idiotic.

Taking it down, apologizing and owning it is absolutely the right thing to do. (Ironically, something that Trump and his entire administration are completely incapable of doing.) I'm still a fan. 😘

At least you know how to apologize. The folks that had Obama in a noose were quite proud of it.
What is with bringing up past wrongs. The use Obama effigies is wrong too. However, we are talking about a celebrity doing this vile thing.

Quote
Aaron Newton
You really didn't go too far, and you have nothing to be sorry about. All this bullshit has gotten all of us on edge for so long now we're all ready to explode. Better to express yourself through art (even violent art) than through dangerous actions or harming others the way the other side does.
Talk about an enabler! Just as bad as the aggressor!  :bird:

Were you screaming at all the people with the burning and lynching effigies of Obama?
We are talking about a celebrity here. Those people who burned Obama effigies got arrested.

I'm loving all the triggered Trumpflakes who most probably said nothing when the teabaggers were burning and hanging effigies of President Obama for 8 years.

Thank you for being more mature than our president by apologizing for, what some consider to be a disturbing or offensive message. Art is supposed to be sometimes disturbing and offensive, presidents are not!
:bird:

Quote
Craig Herr-Klepacki
You are a comedian, crossing the line is part of the job. Yes, it was disturbing but owning it is classy. I'm waiting for 8 years of apologies from the right wing. (Crickets)
:yawn:

Quote
Jacob Bowling
It was acceptable when people did similar things when Obama was president. I'm sure you weren't saying anything either. I've been a fan of Kathys for most of my life. She doesn't apologize for anything so when she said sorry, she meant it. Get over it. Go to your safe place it'll be ok.
Here we go again! It is unacceptable and wrong with Obama. GET OVER IT!  :bird:

Fixed.

Kathy Griffin had much more incentive to apologize than some nobodies burning and hanging Obama in effigy (though she is facing repercussions anyway).

Look, I know you losers have been looking for some way to mirror the whole issue of safe spaces back onto us, but it's just not working. The reaction of the right to this incident is not comparable to safe spaces, in which opponents and their views are expressly prohibited.

Complaints and criticisms of the vile image poured in from both liberals and conservatives – among them Chelsea Clinton, Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, Jake Tapper, and Keith Olbermann. President Trump also was among those who complained about the image, saying it upset his 11-year-old son Barron.

Griffin apologized Wednesday. "I sincerely apologize," she said. "I am just now seeing the reaction of these images. I went too far, I made a mistake, and I was wrong."

But Curtis Houck of Media Research Center notes Griffin didn't apologize to the president or his son. In his opinion, it sounded like the entertainer was sorry she got caught.

"This is acceptable rhetoric on the Left," Houck tells OneNewsNow. "CNN and the Jake Tapper show responded and one of their guests, Molly Ball from The Atlantic, tried to argue that this is acceptable discourse on the Left, and saying that this is the Trump family just trying to make themselves victims."

He also argues that CNN is selective in its outrage. Recently on that network Congressman Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) blamed the president for a Montana politician body-slamming a reporter.

Left-Wing Bottom Feeders Are Now Attacking Barron Trump on Twitter

 About a day after a photo went viral depicting comedian Kathy Griffin holding up a fake, severed bloody head of President Donald Trump – a photo that forced her to issue a video apology and got her canned from her New Years Eve gig at CNN – a story emerged claiming that Barron Trump, the president’s 11-year-old son, had seen the photo on TV and panicked, thinking it was actually his dad.

And it took about five seconds for the anti-Trump trolls on Twitter to crawl out from under their bridges and start lobbing insults at the boy. Who, I reiterate, is 11 freaking years old.

I painstakingly dug out a few examples of the left-wing cesspool for your disgust. Here's Ken Jennings, who's apparently famous for winning a bunch of rounds of Jeopardy! and having 254k Twitter followers...

    Barron Trump saw a very long necktie on a heap of expired deli meat in a dumpster. He thought it was his dad & his little heart is breaking

Here’s a now-deleted tweet from Fandango editor Peter Hall, proving that nothing on the internet ever truly goes away:

Dem Sen. Al Franken Doubles Down, Stands By Decision To Host Event With Trump Mock Beheader Kathy Griffin – UPDATE: Franken Reverses Course, Cancels Event

 Dem Sen. Al Franken Doubles Down, Stands By Decision To Host Event With Trump Mock Beheader Kathy Griffin – UPDATE: Franken Reverses Course, Cancels Event…

“She begged for forgiveness.”

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgnxmggMlJI[/youtube]

UPDATE:  Griffin goes under the bus.

Via WFB:

    Sen. Al Franken (D., Minn.) has canceled an appearance by comedian Kathy Griffin alongside him following her gruesome photographs and video depicting a decapitated President Trump.

    He announced Thursday that he believes Griffin should not attend the senator’s book event on July 7 in California, according to Politico.

    “I believe what Kathy Griffin did was inappropriate and not something that should be be anywhere in our national discourse. I consider her a friend and I’m glad she realized she crossed the line and apologized,” Franken said on Thursday night.

    “After hearing from many Minnesotans who were rightfully offended, I’ve come to the conclusion that it would be best for her not to participate in the event we had previously scheduled. I understand why Minnesotans were upset by this, and I take that very seriously.”

Crazy Jim Carrey Defends Kathy Griffin For Disgusting Trump Photo



It’s the job of the comedian to cross the line at all times,” he told Entertainment Tonight Wednesday at the Los Angeles premiere of I’m Dying Up Here, the new series he’s producing for Showtime. “That line is not real and if you step out into that spotlight and you’re doing the crazy things that (Trump) is doing, we’re the last line of defense. The comedians are the last voice of truth in this whole thing.”


Some may think what Carrey said next crosses that line.

“I had a dream the other night that I was playing golf with Donald Trump,” the 55-year-old comedian volunteered. “I was standing beside him with a club in my hand and I was considering my options when I suddenly woke up.”

Targeting Trump – Kathy Griffin in 2016: “my edge is that I’ll go direct for Barron.”

Posted on June 2, 2017

Against the backdrop of Kathy Griffin producing a video where she decapitated President Donald Trump; and yesterday hiring attorney Lisa Bloom to conduct a press conference scheduled for today, it is worth noting an interview Ms. Griffin gave to Vulture Media at the Equality Now Gala in December of 2016:

    […] “So I’m happy to deliver beat down to Donald Trump — and also to Barron. You know a lot of comics are going to go hard for Donald, my edge is that I’ll go direct for Barron. I’m going to get in ahead of the game.”  (link)

Kathy Griffin Will Hold Press Conference To Complain About ‘Bullying’ From Trump Family

Kathy Griffin is holding a press conference on Friday to complain about the “bullying from the Trump family that she has endured” following the release of a photo spread showing the comedian holding up a bloodied head of President Trump.

Lisa Bloom, the daughter of famed feminist litigator Gloria Allred and Griffin’s newly hired lawyer, made the shocking announcement on Twitter.



Griffin has already suffered financially from the photo spread. CNN dropped her as a host for its New Years Eve broadcast. Squatty Potty, a company that sells toilet stools, also dumped Griffin.

Kathy Griffin Complains About Being Under Federal Investigation For Donald Trump Beheading Photo
http://www.gossipcop.com/kathy-griffin-federal-investigation-donald-trump-photo-tmz-tweet-harvey-levin/

Quote
Kathy Griffin is under federal investigation for the controversial photo of herself with a bloody head meant to look like Donald Trump. And she seems none too happy about it.

On Twitter on Tuesday, Griffin wrote, “Q the botz & death threats, (I don’t give a f anymore [middle finger emoji]) but @tmz & @HarveyLevinTMZ may u never b under fed investigation like I am now.” She then deleted it and sent a similar message, saying, “Hey, (I don’t give a F anymore) [middle finger emoji] but @TMZ & Harvey Levin may u NEVER b under fed investigation like I am now.”

The tweets were in response to an article from ThinkProgress about TMZ’s allegedly close ties to Trump. The story claims the site’s founder and top editor, Harvey Levin, is pushing a pro-Trump narrative across all of the outlet’s platforms, including its “TMZ Live” television show, and killing stories that make the president look badly. It was TMZ that first published Griffin’s beheading picture last month, breaking the news of the gruesome decapitation photo shoot on its website.
