Comedian Kathy Griffin has apologized for a photo of herself holding what appears to be a bloody, decapitated fake head of President Trump, despite sweeping bi-partisan disapproval of the image.
The photo, taken by celebrity photographer Tyler Shields, was posted by Griffin and Shields Tuesday to their social media accounts.
"I caption this 'there was blood coming out of his eyes, blood coming out of his ... wherever,'" Griffin tweeted, referring to an exchange between Donald Trump and former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly during the primary season.
But in an attempt to appease those who were offended by the image, the controversial comedienne then tweeted, "OBVIOUSLY, I do not condone ANY violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I'm merely mocking the Mocker in Chief."

But the image caught the attention of the U.S. Secret Service. Although the federal law enforcement agency does not directly cite the image in any of its tweets, in response to Twitter users tweeting the image at its account, the Secret Service tweeted Tuesday afternoon, "On it! @SecretService has a robust protective intelligence division that monitors open source reporting & social media to evaluate threats."
And an hour later, the agency tweeted, "Threats made against @SecretService protectees receive the highest priority of all of our investigations. #ProtectionNeverRests."

Apology not accepted. Go directly to jail.
Ditto
She is sorry she had to apologize. Thats all.
Yep. She’d behead all 61 million Trump voters if she could.
The Left always overplay their hands.
This. Why aren’t these waste-of-oxygen liberals in jail for the threats they’ve made to the President? If somebody had done this to O’dungheap, they would have been drawn and quartered.
“Do you think anybody would notice if I did this?”
That's Matt, who could no longer stand her.
Her wiki profile says nothing about any kind of college degree.
She needs to be prosecuted for inciting violence against the President.
Not a single casino or club should employ this disgusting excuse for a woman. Every person who supports her employment is casting a vote in favor of this hateful picture.
she should never work again
Does she think that liberals are in the majority in this country and she can slam Trump without any recourse to her actions?
For heaven’s sake she’s apologizing because there was a backlash-———she’s not sorry.
Anyone who does what she did must have the IQ of a flea.

Some cartoonist should do a cartoon of her drawing mohammad. Set the muzzies up to take care of our problems for once.
Yep and the sooner the better. Don't even allow her out on bail while waiting for years to go to court.
Lock her up
Exactly. Translation: “I’m sorry all you meanies are yelling at me.”
