Political Satire has long been a means of expressing opinions about those you don't like or agree with and censorship has just as long been a method of quashing those opinions
You and your ilk have whined about suppression of opinion in countries whose governments you don't support yet here you go objecting to voices against monsters like Trump
The Third Reich would have offered you pair jobs for life.
I ask again - why is it permissible for extremist right-wing satirists like darlin' of the Klan Coulter to propose poisoning opponents and not one satarising the beheading of Trump?
This is the sick double standards of the extremist right gone viral.
It is 'conspiracy theorish' in the extreme to suggest that Griffin was being anything other than satirical and the day you ban satire, you have a fascist state
Please stop talking down to people - you really aren't a bright-enough button on the SS uniform to do that convincingly
