Just look at the comment section in this leftist rag about the same story. They are demented.

A metaphor for not repealing Obama care.

Shakespeare wrote most of his plays during the reign of Elizabeth I... a tyrant who controlled every detail she could of her peoples lives. She was especially hard on Catholics. There are researchers of Shakespeare who believe that he was a secret Catholic. So assassinations in his plays are fraught with danger for the author and the cast.

Sheaffer pointed out that the play ends with Marc Anthony celebrating Brutus for his bravery, saving the Romans from Caesar’s rule. “The message it sent was that if you don’t support the president, it’s ok to assassinate him.”

I wonder if this correctly states what Scheaffer actually said. I've see the play several times and have read it. Antony's oration started out calling Brutus and the other conspirators "honorable men" but, once Antony had his audience with him, turned into a scathing denunciation of Brutus and the conspirators. Indeed it incited a bloody revolt against the conspirators, a revolt that became a civil war that resulted in the deaths of all the conspirators, something that's depicted in the original play.

If Antony's oration is so edited as to turn it around into actual praise for Brutus and the conspirators and the end of the play is left off, then it's real incitement for the assassination of President Trump, something the SS MUST INVESTIGATE.

Marc Antony saying Brutus is an honorable man isn’t exactly saying he’s honorable. That’s a great speech. And I don’t think Caesar is the bad guy.

If it had been an Obama likeness, they’d all be in jail.

Let’s put these people in jail.

Liberals are mired in a sewer of hate they cannot escape from.

And always have been. One thing to remember about Julius Caesar is that in Roman terms he was on the left. And the guys who led the conspiracy - Brutus, Cassius, Decimus, were all on the progressive side of Roman politics.

Basically, Caesar, a leftist thug, assumed more power than his supporters were comfortable with so his guys had the Casca brothers whack him. Italian history really hasn't changed much from Plutarch to Puzo. In fact, if you read Puzo, Plutarch makes more sense. :o)

(((Corey Stoll))). Enough said. Just as irritating IRL as he is on screen.

Looks like “The Strain” is ending at the right time. I don’t need to watch leftists and their political dysentery.

The most important insight here is that the people who do this, whether Kathy Griffin or these actors or others, are normalizing the act of killing the President, which is horrifying. They are putting that idea out in the mass consciousness, and each time they do, there will be less shock and horror. This is dangerous. There have been enough attempts on his life already. I will do my part and increase my prayers for our President. This behavior has to stop.

Obviously, they did not have the balls to do this a year ago when Obama was President.

They should have been applauded with a shower of flying rotten tomatoes.

Funny how the “pen and a phone” guy was perfectly fine, but the pro Constitution and Law and Order guy is a Tyrant.
