Kristin Tate: Kathy Griffin Is Just The Tip Of The Liberal Violence Iceberg
Newz Sentinel ^ | 5-31-2017 | Kristin Tatee

Posted on 05/31/2017 8:32:50 PM PDT by blam

One of the pillars of democracy erodes before our eyes. The ability to disagree with the politically different disintegrates under red and black flags, and hooded rioters obscuring their faces. It’s not Donald Trump’s secret police. It’s not something out of a dystopian novel. It’s the very real culture of permissive violence exploding from today’s left. Bit by bit, this sort of behavior becomes quickly normalized (in the parlance du jour) and escalated.

While there’s generally been blackout coverage of these “mostly peaceful” riots in the legacy media, every once in awhile something breaks through. Such is the case with the ever desperate Kathy Griffin’s latest sickening stunt. Griffin, who most people aren’t exactly sure why she is famous, posed for photos featuring the decapitated head of President Trump. Intended for an audience eager for more and more radical action, Griffin jumped over a big red line. Even CNN had to ask: did she commit a felony?

Her too little, too late apology simply said she went “too far” rather than understanding the underlying crassness and danger her precedent sets. Griffin, who must appear on almost everyone’s “Top 10 Annoying Noncriminal People” (although the latter may change) list, traded vulgar coarseness for attention to a dying career. She said she asked the photographer to “take down the image” — as if that’s possible in the age of the internet. The only thing genuine in her drab statement was that it “wasn’t funny.” Understatement of the year.

The real underlying question is why Griffin thought that such an odious action was acceptable in the first place. In the echo chamber of the modern left wing, it’s obvious. Where is the swift condemnation of the stunt by this “comedian?” Whataboutisms abounded, said one Twitter commentator with 217 followers —

Remember Griffith is the same evil mouthed women who stated the below about Jesus......Normally I wouldn't post such on FR but it's important to understand clearly the evil and filth we are up against and let it be seen and heard for just what and who they are....

I was confusing Kathie Lee Gifford

That's like confusing Moochelle with her immediate predecessor or successor as First Lady, in terms of grace, style and class.

I’ve never heard or read that full quote, only the very last part. I pity that woman. I have enough to answer for when I meet the good Lord someday; I cannot imagine trying to explain that statement to Him. THERE is a woman in need of serious prayer. (Sheesh, I’m going to have a hard time praying for her and not calling her a piece of crap. I’m so disgusted with her right now!)

She's got friends like the following and we need to expose them here on FR.....Here's an exchange that took place between this childrens author and Trumps son....Donald Jr.

"Children’s Author" Mocked Barron Trump for being upset over Kathy Griffin Stunt....."Ken Jennings" who is cruel, sick and twisted and thought it funny to trash and mock an 11-year-old child.

Ken Jennings‏Verified account @KenJennings 11h11 hours ago

..."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"......

Donald Trump Jr. did not sit still for it and struck back...as follows....

Donald Trump Jr.‏Verified account @DonaldJTrumpJr Donald Trump Jr. Retweeted Ken Jennings

..."It takes a real man to pick on an 11 year old. Yet another low from the left, but they will rationalize this away with their usual excuses.".....

Jen Kennings replied.....

Ken Jennings Retweeted Donald Trump Jr.

....."I will kill as many white rhinos as it takes to prove my masculinity to Donald Trump Jr."......

Jennings obviously is an attention whore... has no clue that he will never be ‘masculine’... it seem ‘obvious’ why he would write books directed at children, easy prey..

She’s been devoured by the filth she’s ‘willingly’ in and continues with.......which is why her apology was no apology at all.

...as mentioned before.... When you make an apology for something that’s an accident or error that is one thing..but when you make a conscious decision, planned photo shoot and carried out as she did for effect.... the word sorry is difinitly meaningless.

I hate the evil that comes out of her mouth and she willingly does so....

Oh, you KNOW she had that “apology” written out and rehearsed before the photo was ever released. You’re right that it was no apology at all. Phony words. NOT accepted!

Makes one wonder what his interest in children might be since he had no problem making fun of the Presidents son knowing full well Presidents kids are off limits....

Looks like plenty of FReepers and like-minded FRiends have already hit Amazon, lol. His book ratings are tanking. I don’t know what they were before (mostly five-star, I’ll bet), but there are tons of one-star reviews dated 5/31 (and now mine, dated 6/1). He has quite a few books...I’ll have to add more reviews when I have more time tomorrow.

What a little beta creep.

I bet the brokers of the AT&T Time Warner deal forced CNN's hand.

President Trump’s nominee to run the Department of Justice’s antitrust division said that vertical mergers, such as the proposed AT&T-Time Warner deal, can “raise competitive concerns.”

Bush was a liberal ‘target’... a Pinata for them to whack when they needed to gin-up some bucks for this or that. Yes, he wasn’t particularly conservative, but he served a purpose for liberals.
