    I don't know how sick your mind has to be to come up with, or be amused by, something like this. But Kathie Griffin did, and we see some progressive on twitter defending her, or attacking Barron, who reports say was traumatized when he saw the image.

    Who do liberals on this board think of her "joke"?

    Twenty years of rightwing Hate Radio have brought us to this. Preaching fear, loathing and intolerance 24-7. And now rightwing snowflakes are whining and wringing their hands. You reap what you sow....

    Nobody cares.

    The whole "Barron was traumatized" thing is just an uproariously cynical fabricated "talking point" (spurred from Trump's IMBECILIC mind (although somebody else probably thought of it)) to elicit sympathy.

    The TRUTH of Barron's reaction was more like:

    "Mommy are we FREE now?" (Cue closing credits from Room).

    Trump is an IMBECILE.

    And, outside of a bunch of RW Fever Swamp "defenders" (looking to DEFLECT from the Trump train wreck) nobody cares.

    Trump is truthless, even his cult members know that by now. We can only hope young Barron isn't addicted to television, like his ADD non-reading grand dad...

    To answer the op, yes I was embarrassed. In all fairness Kathy has always gone over the edge. I'll give her points for at least apologizing.

    It was stupid, but I didn't watch it so I don't care.

    No, no, no, no, not possible to blame this on conservatives or on Donald Trump. Forget it.

    Maybe not Trump but certainly conservatives, during the last election I heard people who wanted punishments for Hillary that would have made beheading merciful.

    I have never found most conservatives shy about saying we should kill all liberals and everyone else they don't like. After all, what is the difference between holding one faux severed head and saying we need to kill all the "surplus" humanity, as I have heard seriously suggested on this board more than once?

    Agreed, though it won't matter what we say, the fact that we ever thought anyone in the devil possessed entertainment business was good for anything but burning at the stake condemns us to Perdition right along with them

    I would say if it was one of their, such as Obama they would be up in arms and calling whomever did such a thing all sorts of names along with calling for her firing. Being it was Trump, good laugh and perfectly okay.

    I never liked her, it was stupid, and almost as low-life as Ted Nugent's venom.

    No comedian can possibly compete with our beloved comedian in chief.

    It was in bad taste and poorly thought out.
    Not any more shocking than the images seen at an Alice Cooper show back in the 70's.
