As usual, left wing shallow one-layered thinking fails.
The image does not necessarily mean she is an ISIS sympathizer....Did anybody here say she was supporting them?
Mr. Jones, 58, a former hotel manager with a red face and a white handlebar mustache, argues that as an American Christian he has a right to burn Islam’s sacred book because “it’s full of lies.” And in another era, he might have been easily ignored, as he was last year when he posted a sign at his church declaring “Islam is of the devil.”
But now the global spotlight has shifted. With the debate in New York putting religious tensions front and center, Mr. Jones has suddenly attracted thousands of fans and critics on Facebook, while around the world he is being presented as a symbol of American anti-Islamic sentiment.

. That was intelligence turned stupid while the redneck was stupid continuing.
i dont think so
i think she knew exactly what was going to happen
do you think she thought people were going to flag it as awesome and pat her on the back?
i dont think so
she said her and the photographer were going to have to move to mexico once the pic came out
she knew what the reaction was going to be
maybe it is coming on a little stronger than expected but she knew people were going to be shocked and flip. that was the point

a comic who shocks should be investigated for ties to isis
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."
Be-headings and decapitations stretches back many hundreds of years, if not thousands and was performed by many different types of people for many different reasons.
You are attaching this to ISIS because it is current and fits your political narrative.
How stupid is that reasoning! Of course beheadings go back hundreds of years! That's why in today's world we call these acts BARBARIC when perpetrated by ISIS and other groups that have reverted to times when beheadings were prevalent.
THAT'S why I'm attaching this to ISIS. Get it! "It's what they do!"
Reply to: TinySickTears Would have been cool if his parents told him he might come across an image that is not real and a mean joke.
Did They?
Maybe
Can't miss a chance to play on people's emotions though.

i made a similar argument with caravaggio last night
That's not the same thing in the slightest, nor was her reaction hyperbolic. The kid is 11. It wasn't some random image on the xbox, nor on the tv screen. It was a depiction of his father's decapitated head covered in blood.

Trump family sources tell us Barron was in front of the TV watching a show when the news came on and he saw the bloody, beheaded image. We're told he panicked and screamed, "Mommy, Mommy!"
I don't believe that for one second! Has Barron never played a video game, seem a gory movie or attended a Halloween Haunted House?
I agree that what Kathy Griffin did was in bad taste, but, Melainia's hyperboleic reaction is ridiculous!
