Say what you will about Kathy Griffin. [1]
I find her actions exemplary.
No, seriously, in the sense that this is precisely what we’ve come to expect from moonbats…. Constantly going off the deep end in support of a far leftist political agenda, and then feigning shock and amazement, when they get called on it.
It’s predictable consistently.
The reason it’s gotten to that point is very simple. They get called on it so seldom.
I’ve been arguing for years that going after this nonsense more aggressively is the path we should be taking as a culture.
But I don’t expect it anytime soon.
One more thing. Recently I cited Colin Kaepernick and his inability to get a job in the NFL to be an example of how the culture is more powerful than the government.
I would cite this situation as another such example.
As with Kaepernick, the kind of blowback that she got on this outrage is precisely how it’s supposed to work. Freedom of speech in terms of governmental retribution is a given. Isolation from retribution from society is another matter however. There are consequences for speech. Regardless of whether the government is constitutionally enabled to react. As such, I consider the government governmental reaction to it to be over the top and probably counterproductive, to say nothing of questionable constitutionality.
As for Griffin herself, she just ended her career. And rightly so.
