Kathy Griffin - "I beg for your forgiveness"

[Chris_Michael]

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cn.../kathy-griffin-trump-tyler-shields/index.html

So comedy is a place where you can cross all the lines and be as offensive as you want to be. Kathy Griffin decided to photoshop herself holding Donald Trump's decapitated head. Now, she's apologizing profusely.

I'm not sure where I stand on this. Free speech is free speech, and I'm sure Liberals here applaud her for this... even though if it were a conservative holding Obama's head or Clinton's head, there would be backlash.

I dunno. I think the worst part about it is that it is obviously targeting somebody personally. If it were a random head with no personal identity, I think I would just chalk it up to her being a crazy bitch.

Hmm... Free speech, I guess. I dunno.

What do you think? Free speech on this one?

No, Chris, As you have shown, you can cross all lines and be offense by posting your reactionary political crap to a porn discussion board.

 

[phrodeau]

Apparently all the rules changed in 2013.

For the last 24 hours, I've seen people saying "IF a conservative were to have threatened Obama or Clinton" as if Ted Nugent is not a person who exists in reality.

 

[flanneland]

I never found her all that funny really.

I do it for your entertainment.

Actually the rules don't apply to liberals. In the cases mentioned above there were consequences and investigations. I find it more offensive that people call her a comedian. Of course liberals here an elsewhere can't even see why it might be wrong. Griffin is already on the "D" list because there isn't a "Q" list.

A lot of effort on your part with nothing but a yawn and one line (without reading your rant) on my part. Sounds good to me.

Oh look someone trying to poke the liberals.

You can make fun of liberals all you like - but it is you that demonstrates the axe to grind. And that's on you bud.

Who the fuck cares what she does or doesn't do. We had people hanging Obama effigies in trees, "unpleasant" caricatures of Clinton/Pelosi et al... who gives three figs.

 

[sr71plt]

For the record, I think Kathy Griffin has always been a comedian "too far" and hope this latest "not funny" sinks her.

 

[Wrong Element]

She's been let go from CNN, which has had her on New Year's Eve for the last ten or so unfunny years.


So if we're keeping track,

Showing a likeness of a beheaded Trump: Bad. Very very bad.

Calling on "Second Amendment people" to deal with Hillary, saying John McCain isn't a hero, grabbing 'em by the pussy, picking fights with beauty queens and the parents of war casualties, making fun of the disabled: still perfectly OK.

That's 100% on CNN, not free speech. They're a business first and a free speech supporter second.

Just to be clear, I never said I had a problem with her doing it. I'm a little iffy on targeting somebody personally but that's why I asked opinions. I didn't say, "I'm right."

The same goes for whoever targetted Obama, Hillary, or anybody else with expressions that were violent.

Keep in mind, I saw this all throughout the day yesterday and only questioned it when she came out with such a drastic apology. As far as her being a comedian, I've never really heard her work. So I dunno.

Anyway, it was just a thought.

Not with me. But someone else being a dumb cluck over what Trump gets away with doesn't mean I have to condone similar crap from the other side.

 

[phrodeau]

Funny how all of those piñatas didn't cause any hysteria during Cinco de Mayo.

 

[urguyscott]

I agree that she has never been funny. She was shacked up with the executive of one network and that is how she got on TV. But the leftist on here don't seem to think she did anything wrong and get "upset" if someone says what if she showed Obama hanging from a tree or Hillary being stoned to death? Wouldn't that have been just as wrong? Of course if would have and they would yell and cry, but they have a double standard so they see nothing wrong in what she did. Poor girl is being 'bullied" by the terrible Americans for her stupid cruel mindless evil pro ISIS photo. To her mind the chopping off of heads of those who do not follow the Soros or Terrorist line is quite all right. And if you call her on her being a mindless, selfish pro terrorist bitch than you are a bully. But that's the left for you.

Maybe we should give her something shinny like a new ax and that will take some of the sting of being "bullied" by the terrible people of this country. Thank goodness she has that corrupt lying lawyer to defend her. Thank goodness she has leftist on here to come to her side in this terrible situation, not of her making, that she is in.

I wonder if we turned her over to the ISIS hatchet men and said here do with her as you would any American who falls into your hands if she will be so much happier?

I say we all show her our support in this terrible time and give her a picture signed by every American of her with her head cut off. She will get a good laugh from it I'm sure.

I believe, the entire thing was contrived....and put her on the front page, good or bad. Now, she is going to have to wait to see the backlash. She lost CNN NY's eve.,.........I'd like more details on that. Maybe she was out the door anyway. But I am surprised Kathy Griffin dumped by Squatty Potty, that seems like a perfect match. Maybe it's better to dump her and get THAT publicity, rather than keep her and deal with the negaitive pub or boycott?

Yes, you do show your own inhuman tendency to use a violent solution for every problem. It fits you like a size S condom.

 

[THECPKID]

I think "the line" was crossed, that's good

 

[Tigersman]

Griffin didn't photoshop anything. A photographer came up with the bright idea for the picture. With the way things are going for Trump, his head just may look exactly like the picture by year's end. Congress may draw blood.

HA i say, i'll believe that last part about congress when i see it. I mean if congress couldn't boot out a philandering sob like Bill Clinton what makes you think they'll boot out a guy like Donald Trump? If they do well that will be a political firestorm like no other.

And another thing while i do believe most comedians don't have a filter between their mouth and brain sometimes let's give Kathy Griffin a little slack. Because it sounds like to me the photographer is an overly charming bastard and what do you want to bet he's been behind other "shocking" pictures?

 

[urguyscott]

No, Chris, As you have shown, you can cross all lines and be offense by posting your reactionary political crap to a porn discussion board.

But she is not a comic. Only reason she ever got on air is that at one time she was shacking up with a station executive. And she is the one who brought this topic up. Have you ever seen one of her acts? Terrible. I saw her booed off the stage once.

The fact you see nothing wrong with what she did or what any of the lowlife on TV and the media do when they promote violence, riots, and death is that you are in the same class. You learn nothing from history.

You do know that what she did is against the law? (by the way the gal who played the operator on the old Laugh In show told all the comics when Obama was first elected that they should not make jokes or say anything against him. But you give permission for all of us Americans who can't stand the commie and the progressive fascist Clinton, a follower of the Nazi Soros, to call them names, threaten their lives, and talk the people into a hanging mob?)

She knew what she was doing and did it for her 15 minutes in the light, because her career is near bottom. Like all the late night so called comics who are nothing but political left wing or far right wing puppets without any talent, she is just a sign of the times that is slowly sinking into the quick sand. Like Clinton and Obama history will forget them and the uneducated fools who would sell themselves and their families into slavery as just a bad foot note to history.

You call yourself a leftist or far right progressive, but you want to live in this country with its terrible Constitution and laws. North Korea or Cuba or smog land China and Russia or Syria are more in your taste of governments. But I dare you to insult their leaders and not be fed to the dogs. Prove us wrong. Go there and steal a poster or speak out against their leaders. And ask your next of kin to let us know what happened. And take that foul mouth bitch with you.

 

[nowisthetime]

Like I have always said, right wing men always love to dish bullshit but when it's flung back at them, they cry like little thin-skinned pansy fairies. Oh don't let the trashing be from a woman or a person of color, oooo weee!

Let's not even get to the eight years of garbage thrown at an honorable and classy man like President Obama.

Good grief, conservabots are ANNOYING. Again you pigs didn't say anything about pictures of Obama being lynched. How do you think his daughters felt about that?


Every insult thrown at orange dumpster is deserved. He is not a nice person. This is the same man who has said he would KILL the families of terrorists and that Mexican immigrants are rapists and murderers. I have no respect for him. He was selected NOT elected.

He is the President of Conservabots only since that's who he only cares about...lies, he only cares about himself and conservabots are too stupid to see that.

Kathy is a comedian and comedians say and do outrageous things.

It must be sad to live in your twisted racist head. I'm sorry you're so delusional. Get help please. Nothing you typed above has any bearing to the reality of the world the rest of us live in.
Have a good weekend anyway.
