Why are people going so nuts about Kathy Griffin doing to same thing Marilyn Manson did 6 months ago?

Question

http://www.thedailybeast.com/marilyn-mansons-shocking-trump-video
It is obviously out of line and a disgusting thing to do, but what do you expect from leftists? Yes, I know there were some fringe idiots that depicted killing Obama 8 years ago but it was never anyone working for a major news network or a famous musician like Ted Nugent, but if a conservative was going to do something that batshit crazy make no mistake it would have been Ted Nugent. I think Manson is a talented musician but I have never cared for his onstage antics. I think the crazy $hit detracts from his music, which i actually enjoy. Kathy Griffin was just a leftist carrying on in he normal leftist activities, I don't understand why people are so offended that she was behaving like her normal self.

The same people had nothing to say when Obama was burned in effigy, hung in effigy, or compared to a monkey.

Instantly what came to mind is can you imagine what would happen if this were done to Obam by a prominent person. Howls of racism, riots in the streets, demands of arrest and conviction for inciting violence. All of this could be expected.

It's really pathetic how far you baizuo are going to try and rationalize what Griffin did, particularly after she herself apologized. You just really can't bear being held responsible for anything, can you?

Trump is the king of hypocrites. He was OK with Ted Nugent, who like Griffin is also an entertainer, threatening/joking about killing President Obama. He even invited him to the white house. Now he and his followers are outraged when one jokes about killing him.
