Professor’s Painting of a Decapitated Donald Trump Displayed as Artistic Expression

What do you get when you send out political opinion masquerading as contemporary ‘Art’?

A painting, depicting a decapitated President Donald Trump, riding full-bore on a pale horse supposedly stressing the importance of “protecting even objectionable artistic expression”. That’s what!

And when does “political opnion” become a threat or a call to violence?

Turnabout is fair play.
We just need some talented artists to DEMAND NEA funding for a series of painting showing Obama/Hillary/Moochelle being defiled or harmed, then let the lawsuits commence when they are turned down or denied public showing.

I’m sure they would have reacted the same way if it had been Obama’s head.

Howard Dean checked in on Ann Coulter, saying her “hate speech” isn’t covered under the 1st Amendment (you gotta love it when a liberal MD politician tries to pass himself off as someone who knows anything at all about the constitution). Wonder how he feels about this?
