1) You still have access to the picture, so it's not censorship. This is simply consequences, and I'd eat my own left testicle if this wasn't EXACTLY what Kathy intended to do.

2) Maybe I'm too unenlightened, but I don't see how cutting someone's head is art. I don't think if someone were to send you a picture of them holding your bloody severed head you'd call it art.

Well it is STILL ART... There is many BLODDY PIECES OF ART

For example, here u have it:

goya-painting.gif

This piece of art was painted by Goya (A really huge and famous painter)

Art is much MORE THAN  BEAUTIFUL THINGS. And you can find this kind of art on paintings, literature, music, movies, etc.... It may be disgusting for your eyes, but this doesnt mean it is not art...  

Conservative people are the ones who dont let the art have its space. They (conservative) want to dominate everything, cuz they think they are right . Boudelaire ( one of the most important poets ever existed) was almost killed for writing his greatest work: "The flowers of evil", just because he wrote about lesbians.  I do hate people who dont let art be free.

It isn't censored. The picture is available. She will not be arrested for creating it. 

However, there are still consequences of one's actions in the private sector. 

Well, they dont let an artist be an artist and that sucks... Artists should be able to express their work without fear . She had to apologize as if she were the first woman who made a parody of a politician who is a clown.  Trunk said really bad things aboutwomen, and people forgave him just because clowns can be forgiven :ladyhaha:

The fact that art is more censored that ever... You tube, cnn, whats next? If u dont like art, wear an eye condom next time

Showing you holding the gorey decapitated head of your president is art?? 

She went to far. She should pay the consequences. 

Imagine if someone did this to a previous President. Just because you don't like someone doesn't mean you have to go as far as she did. She could've protested in a harmless and more meaningful way.

She's free to be an artist. She is not fearful of her life or of being jailed. She apologized because she went too far. No one made her apologize. 

Yes, Trump has said terrible things about many people and I don't forgive him, along with hundreds of millions of others.

What Kathy did was her right, but it was inappropriate, disrespectful, and violent. I hate Donald Trump, but she went too far and unfortunately has to pay the price. This type of statement is not okay no matter who it is. It also doesn't help the cause because it gives his supporters more ammunition. :smh: 

Its also important to note the video was reminiscent of beheading videos that some American citizens have endured at the hands of terrorists. It was beyond poor taste.

No, it isn't like saying that, unless in your mind there isn't a clear distinction between a member of ISIS holding the decapitated head of a murdered journalist, and photo of Kathy Griffin holding a Donald Trump mask dipped in red corn syrup. One is fake, one is real. You know Lady Gaga didn't actually mass murder everyone in that diner in Telephone right?

 

 

The difference is Gaga is a pop star and those were actors. Trump, like it or not, is the POTUS. lol So its considered a "threat". It was just a stupid thing to do all around, even if it was Hilary, Obama, Bush, whoever.

There can be 99 bottoms in the area but all it takes is 1 top to believe in you.

Gaga is a pop star and those were actors. Kathy Griffin is a comic and that was a rubber mask. The photograph was done by Tyler Shields, who frequently uses shocking images in his art.

CNN acted responsibly by firing her, but this photograph is art. It's probably the most polarizing photograph since Piss Christ.
