You may be right.

In addition to acting in an extreme and outrageous manner, the actor must act with intent or recklessness. In other words, the actor must intend to cause severe emotional distress or know that severe emotional distress is likely to occur. The actor can also become liable for intentional infliction if they behave with deliberate disregard to the high possibility that severe emotional distress will occur.

More like 1 hr...remember that is all Paris Hilton did for multiple DUI’s? Takes that long just to book the preps.

Child ABUSE whether it is mental or physical is deserving of at least in this case 1 yr in prison and a $10 million fine. Any more and sentence is longer. She is not dealing with Mooch...she is dealing with a Tigress Mama who will bring the WRATH of not only public opinion as a Mom, but the SS, IRS, Dept of Children’s Services for Child abuse on her.

This is the same IDIOT that said JESUS SUCKS when she won an award. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t3xkWJteNQ

I hope someone shoves a mike in Sen. Franken’s face and asks him to comment on Griffin’s targeting of Barron Trump.

The tort of intentional infliction of emotional distress has four elements: (1) the defendant must act intentionally or recklessly; (2) the defendant’s conduct must be extreme and outrageous; and (3) the conduct must be the cause (4) of severe emotional distress.

Franken walks back defense of event with Kathy Griffin
6/01/17

Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) on Thursday walked back his previous defense of a joint appearance with Kathy Griffin planned for an upcoming event, encouraging her not to attend.

Franken said he faced backlash for keeping the planned appearance after Griffin posed with…

“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,” Franken said Thursday, according to Politico.

The change of plans comes a day after Franken said during a town hall discussion Wednesday that he still planned on making a joint appearance with Griffin at the event because she had asked for forgiveness.

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

Sure sounds like intent to me, and there are at least two victims, the child and his mother.

Leave Melania in a room alone with that witch for three minutes.

Remember what she did to the Palins. Carousing around with Bristol’s ex. It was intentional and premeditated then and it’s intentional and premeditated now.

Would a lobotomy help her? Probably not.

Since she made her intentions to inflict harm on Barron in 2016 and then carried through with it in 2017, that constitutes premeditation.
Charge the harpie with child abuse and lock her up.

Sarah Palin would run off a grizzly bear with a willow switch to protect her kids from these snakes, but the FLOTUS has a team of lawyers.
Griffin may get her cracked *** handed to her.

Her adverb problem is the least of her problems compared to the rest of her spiel.

In context these statements not only expose her to countless millions in liability and criminal charges, but she is also in violation of the Geneva Conventions.

Her intent to target Barron makes her actions a literal war crime: “children shall be the object of special respect and shall be protected against any form of indecent assault.”

Seriously, when was the last time you saw real comedy? Stephen Wright was funny...this stuff today is like the news...it isn’t news, it’s politics...same with comedy. I turn it off as quickly as I can. Resting my eyes these days just listening to Pandira. Makes for a happier day.
