She was grabbed by Donald Trump. How in the world did she let that happen. I was very disturbed by Kathy Griffin’s action. Not because she posted the beheaded picture of Donald Trump as shown above on the left of the image – Many expressed their feelings in similar fashion towards Obama as shown in the image above, picture on the right – Nope. I am very disappointed, annoyed even by the fact she caved in to pressure of criticism and issued a heartfelt apology. In one instance, I was most annoyed by her tears.
No one can deny that her choice of expressing disgust for Trump (and his administration) was not the most elegant way to convey a message; that was nevertheless her right to do so; in fact, that’s exactly what freedom of expression, freedom of speech means. To be able to express yourself, however despicable your expression might be, without any fear of reprisal, retaliation or persecution.
