Colbert Is No Different From The Taliban Or ISIS. This Is NOT Funny, It Is Despicable, Hateful and Sick.

The left’s wild inability to control its id with regard to President Trump has now 
crossed the line into actual violent imagery. We’ve already seen an Irish
 magazine consider whether assassinating Trump was moral; we’ve seen
 a British journalist tut-tutting that Trump’s killing couldn’t come fast
 enough; the American press has suggested that Trump is thisclose to
 committing acts of violence against journalists.
Now, CBS broadcast a skit from The Late Show With Stephen Colbert  
in which Trump senior policy advisor Stephen Miller’s head appeared 
on a pike.

Yes, really.
The sketch had Miller showing up on The Big Bang TheoryThe Walking Dead,
 being threatened with a baseball bat; Stranger Things; and Game of Thrones,
 with his head on a pike.
That last reference is a throwback to 2012, when HBO slapped George W.
 Bush’s head on a pike.
HBO was forced to apologize for using Bush’s head on the show, with the
 company calling the action an “inadvertent, careless mistake.”
But this was no mistake. This was clearly designed to underscore the notion
that violence against Trump administration figures is now decent fodder for
comedy. The New York Times tweeted as much:



White House adviser Stephen Miller became Public Enemy No. 1 with a few late-night hosts on Monday http://nyti.ms/2lL9Oy4 
That sketch followed on Saturday Night Live throwing Kellyanne Conway out
of a window and watching her break on the sidewalk several stories below,
 before being reanimated as some sort of creepy zombie.
Imagine if Valerie Jarrett’s head had appeared on a spike in a right-wing
 parody, or if Jen Psaki had been thrown out of a window in some comedy
 video from the right. The outrage would have been deafening. But when it’s
Trump people, it’s just funny.
Then the left claims to be shocked by an increase in violent language and
imagery – and behavior – as the social fabric breaks down. But with each
 day, they’re breaking down the fabric themselves more and more.
