Perhaps that's the problem. Everyone is so thin-skinned any more that we get outraged over everything.
i really dont believe a lot of this outrage is real
i just dont
no facts to back it up.
just a feeling
im sure most think it is in bad taste. i feel that way cause i think was in bad taste and it takes a lot for me to feel that way
but all the screams of having her arrested and investigated for ties to terrorists....

As Paris Hilton would say,
"Beheadings are so HOT!"
The apologists on this thread make my stomach turn. I guess beheadings are cool and trendy, as long as there's enough collective hate to justify it's promotion.

Ya, the ISIS comparisons are simply absurd.
Political hyperbole and fake outrage for the sake of partisanship.
No they're not. They are spot on. It reminds me of a Geico commercial: "That's what they do."

You interjected yourself when someone asked me why I hadn't condemned Kathy Griffin, and I said that I was too busy defending free speech.
I don't see how your comment, that I had plenty of time to condemn her in your thread, deserves any more attention than what I've already given you. I see this issue as a cheap publicity stunt on the Trump's part, using Barron Trump's wittle feelings as an excuse to garner support for their agenda to silence free speech.

it must be family tradition then cause it seems super weird to me that a 20 year old would call his mom mommy
what works for your family works though

Well Yo-Landi, I have read this thread and I don't recall anyone calling for her to be arrested or even that she did not have the right to do it. I've only read that people feel it was in bad taste and that it is deplorable. Also that it mimics a very real threat occurring in the world today.

Also, what normal 11 year old watches news.

So you say it´s the fault of this 11 year old boy because he can´t tell the difference between a real beheading and not? Do you think in that situation one would get closer to the TV to check out if his father really was beheaded?
Not every 11 year old kid is allowed to watch gory movies or play SAW games alike by their parents.
I doubt it happened. Everything in the story makes me believe it's a piece of "news" placed there to pull on people's heart strings in a certain direction, namely Trumps.
I mean, there isn't any named source for this actually happening, outside of "Trump family sources tell us.."
Why is that ok here? Especially when you take into account the relationship between Levine and Trump..

Odd that people accept unnamed source as truth this time.
