Kathy Griffin is feeling the heat from her decision to do a controversial photo shoot where she was shown with a mock beheaded bloody bust of U.S. President Donald Trump. Griffin immediately apologized about "going too far" and has since been the victim of endless harassment and death threats. A few days ago, we had a good laugh when Gwar said ( http://www.metalinjection.net/politic... were mad at her too… but because Kathy was trying to steal their bit.
But there was no laughing at a press conference held yesterday where Griffin was flanked by attorney Lisa Bloom. During Bloom's intro of Griffin, she mentioned how unfairly Griffin is being treated, even after apologizing. Then, Bloom attempted to throw some metal bands under the bus:
"Many male artists have created far more disturbing imagery. A Marilyn Manson music video shows him beheading a Trump figure. The band Municipal Waste has an image of Trump with a bloody gunshot to his head on a band t-shirt. The band G-W-A-R has violent images like this of president after president for years. They're all just considered bad boys. Unlike these male artists, Kathy apologized. Unlike these male artists, Kathy has endured the most powerful man in America and his family using their family to target her and her employees, after she apologized." Via MetalInjection
So what are your thoughts? Personally i don't think its right to depict that kind of shit about any president, it is one thing to disagree and talk shit about what you think they do wrong but going to these extremes... I don't know man. I am way to paranoid for that type of shit myself.
