As you recall, comedian Kathy Griffin was virtually destroyed for posting an image of herself holding a decapitated head of Donald Trump. But Paul Gosar hasn’t even been reprimanded by his peers in the Republican party, with the sole exception so far of Adam Kinzinger. Everybody else is doing the see no evil, hear no evil monkey routine, and looking for a corner to hide in.
This begs the obvious question, is the rule of law applicable to all Americans, or only some and who exactly is exempt? And then there’s this, which seems to be adding insult to injury.
I guess it’s all a big joke to the Arizona congressman. It was not funny when Griffin did it. Not a tall, a tall.
I mean, when Senator Kathy Griffin held up a replica of trump's bloody head the entire political establishment of both parties spent days condemning her. At least I think she's a senator, given the amount of coverage she got. https://t.co/mOumqmbt1w

Oh, I forgot to mention, interrogated under oath at the conclusion of the weeks long investigation in which the Feds informed me and my attorneys they were considering charging me with a crime of “conspiracy to assassinate the president of the United States.”
But Gosar…— Kathy Griffin (@kathygriffin) November 9, 2021
Does anybody see this in Paul Gosar’s future? Seriously?
Congresscritters are given a lot more leeway than they should be given.
The law is just a gun held by the rich to the heads of the poor. Ministers & religious folks who don’t live up to their reported faiths are used daily by unbelievers as a reason they don’t believe. However, no church, temple, or mosque comes to your house with guns on hips. The law does. Every rule ever made by any system of government protects the property & values of those who have the power by deadly force or the threat of deadly force. Fact. Hey Christians, by the way Jesus was legally executed as a criminal. Fact. Leeway???? U betcha.
