    I am sick and tired of seeing the same picture of Kathy Griffin holding you-know-what.
    Even conservative media (lagely supporters of the President) post the visual all the time. I have to block it from my field of vision.

    It's gross and disgusting. When it is featured all over the media it causes a desensitization to a filthy act.
    Sin follows this course. The more it's done --the more numbness.

    But in her *ahem* emotional presser she said that she just wanted to make people laugh...

    Suck it up Butter Cup. Yeah now you get a bird's eye view of sin...that's what a Cristian is supposed to do, speak out against it. Rest assured she is paying for it here on Earth. Wonder if she will one day repent of her filthy life?

    I saw her on ABC news and she was crying and shaking like the proverbial leaf saying that she had been destroyed.

    The rest of us spell it as Christian.
    I will not rest assured that that will be the case. Losing some gigs is not paying for it on earth.
    She will be given a hero's status before long and be welcomed back into the loony and violent left.

    The Day of Judgement is where I can rest assured --not some earthly "justice."

    Yep. People are just being mean to her.

    By the way, my wife was talking about this tonight. She said the word of the day is "beheaded," as in "Kathy Griffin beheaded to the unemployment office..."

    Yes,I have a split reaction as well.

    I am torn apart inside when I see a woman cry but then I heard my inner-child say:

    Kathy, Kathy, Kathy, why such a foolish thing that you knew would come back to destroy your career?

    Yep, gross and disgusting and precisely Kathy's intent to portray, with the hope that some would find her gross and disgusting images would be received with laughter, as some laugh at her gross and disgusting stand up speech.

    Oops, it backfired.

    And since our news networks are 24-7 so that everyone can have an opportunity to hear what "they" decide is "news"....AND
    then talk for weeks about what "they" decide is controversial and will keep people tuned into "their" station to listen to "opinions" of others (because we all know individuals are not capable of thinking for themselves....har, har).... YEP.... expect to see over and over and over, the "controversial" images of the topic at hand.

    Fortunate for us, we have election to use the ON or OFF switch, to invite the media IN or KEEP them OUT of our homes.

    The women is crude... sometimes it gets a laugh...other times you bomb. But that thing she did with the severed head was in extremely bad taste. What was she thinking?

    You mean woman.
    Is that your criteria -- if a crude line gets a laugh or chuckle? Godless people can laugh at anything --that should not be a Christian's measuring stick.

    Do you live in the real world? Seriously, how clean & righteous do you think Trump is? He is a guy who cheats on his Wives, brags to other men that he moves on other married women......LOL & some plastic head with paint upsets you? And don't tell me that's false news. Now Brother, who is the bigger scum bag?

    I think he lost his "Christian measuring stick" when Trump was elected.

    She seems to think the definition of humor is being vulgar and shocking. :(

    I didn't exactly have a split reaction. She brought this all on herself and has been declaring that Trump is a bully? Perhaps she's just downright crazy...

    Yet we're still talking about her. She's been irrelevant for years and this was a desperate attempt to make her meaningful. It will make her a hero to 1 percent, about the number of folks who think the Third Reich or Stalin's Spviet Union were good things.

    It doesn't upset you. But to decent-minded people it represents moral depravity which is being more and more accepted in our society -- case in point --you.
    Who are the competitors --you and K.G.?
