http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/t ... gy-outrageBut this was a well known celebrity who's an outspoken liberal and CNN employee holding a bloody decapitated head ala ISIS for a professional video/photo shoot intended for global distribution.
What past incident is a true equivalency to that?
To me personally it's not as much of an outrage, as facepalming at liberals continuing to make "this is how bananas liberals are" demonstrations. How's about something dignified and sane looking just once for a change?
Celebrities stick their foot in their mouth all the time,she just stuck hers in further.As in all the way to her butt hole.Remember when Gilbert Godfrey lost his Aflac job when he made a dark humor comment about the tsunami in Japan?Celebs like attention,and she got more than she bargained for.
Disgusting as it it,it's still free speech.
Trump should have been aware from the past Obama incidents and get over it.Presidents get unsavory attention,it's just a fact.
People and the media also have a right to bash the president,they wouldn't attack Trump so much if he didn't give them the fuel to work with.
I'm just saying I think that effigy deal went beyond any Obama ones in its scope. And while I am unwilling to watch all 30 whatever minutes of that video, it sounded to me like it was being justified and things will be taken to the next level. I doubt anyone ever did a half hour press conference on an Obama effigy or that they had their lawyer making a speech for them. I don't think Gilbert Godfrey did anything like that.
I mean is she supposed to receive hero status now? As a matter of fact I think that's what her lawyer said using some kind of wordplay. As for fuel, they take every little thing and blow it completely out of proportion, so it all just comes out as nonsense. I'm not upset over it, I just think it's all going to blow up in their faces eventually, if it hasn't already.
I mean I would think the idea would be to turn those who voted for Trump (including the electors) against him, but I think all it's been doing is turning Trump voters much further against them to a huge degree. And I think they are just going to continue making it worse for themselves.
