holding the severed head of President Donald Trump, reports Campus Reform.
The work, created by Assistant Professor of Painting Thomas Chung, is being presented as part of a month-long faculty art exhibition in the university’s fine arts gallery, reports KTUU.
“It’s an image of the actor who plays Captain America, and two eagles are sort of screaming into his ears, and he’s holding the severed head of Trump, and there’s a young Hillary Clinton clinging to his leg,” Chung said to describe his painting, according to Campus Reform. “I was reminded of those 80’s rock posters, where there’s a woman in tattered clothes clinging to a strong male hero’s leg.”
Assistant professor Thomas Chung created the painting, KTTU-TV reported, and he says that he “spent days just weeping” after Trump was elected president. The assistant professor describes himself as a social artist who normally doesn’t deal in politics, but Trump’s election “bled into that.”

Imagine if this was done to Obama! The rodeo clown - who traditionally had a mask of prior presidents

and continued the tradition with Obama was destroyed, shamed and fired.
This guy screams freedom of expression, but when taxpayers money is involved art should be restricted to common values underpinning a country. Remember piss Jesus. As a Christian I found that disgusting.
This clown gets a free pass because he hates Trump. Welcome to America.

That just reminded me of what is wrong on this board. Some people can't see the difference between taxpayer funded stupidity and one or two nut jobs.
This was done by a college professor. I can't recall any - college professors doing that to Obama

Umm, in his capacity as an artist - not as a professor

What about the awful anti-Obama paintings done by one Jon McNaughton (no starving artist he, I'll bet conservatives lapped up those ugly things as fast as he could paint them).
Come on, art is personal expression, let's just leave it at that, or do you want to compare the one he did of Obama (a constitutional scholar) burning the constitution, OR the one where Jesus wrote the constitution? Ick.

I live in Alaska but Anchorage is not like the rest of us. It is filled with liberals who moved here from the lower 48, for college or whatever reason. This wannabe Maplethorpe does not reflect our values.

I guess if you are a conservative constitutionalist your opinion is not welcome, but if you are a left-wing Marxist, then you can pretty much say anything you want.

I'm working on a Photoshopped version of the same painting with Thomas Chung's head substituted for Trump. I think it's time to turn the tables on these people.

who the president is. I agree that it is not funny, but I do see it as freedom of speech. I usually don't think that type of art is ever funny. I think are should be beautiful or thought provoking, but not just nasty!

of art, you don't have to look at it much less post it for others to see.
I have seen distasteful art using many political figures and other people in history. They have the right to create their art and I have a right not to look at it or show it to others.
This is both infuriating and shameful. I just read where a Florida High School - student had to remove her cross
[ In Reply To ..]
necklace and participate in LGBT activities.
Parents told Liberty Counsel that at least three students were not allowed to wear their cross necklaces. Math teacher Lora Jane Riedas claimed they were “gang symbols.” When one student asked why, Riedas told her she was disrespectful and she must take her necklace off. The necklace held a crucifix less than an inch long. The student felt she was forced to deny her faith.
Riedas is a member of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network’s Leadership Institute. She engages in blatant LGBT political activism in her classroom. Her classroom is decorated with LGBT insignia and rainbows. She decorated students’ notebooks in rainbow stickers without their permission. She singled out one student for several false “misbehavior” claims after the student removed the sticker from her notebook.
Riedas has plans to promote GLSEN’s “Day of Silence” Friday. GLSEN’s guide requires students to take part in political activism. Liberty Counsel stated that students can either “’go along to get along’ or risk being ‘outed’ as disagreeing with the teacher.” Students are encouraged to support the LGBT agenda and Day of Silence by not speaking. Those who speak will be required to answer class questions.
More taxpayer funded activism. This is not a teacher. This is a bully.
Sounds like some girls need to stand up - Principal had not been notified

Typical conservative move. All hurt, so they hire an attorney instead of taking it to the administration. And...who knows...maybe they grab hold of their crosses and make gang threats. Have you seen the cross-like bling gangs wear?
MSM does something similar and call it "news." - Earlier this month, the NYT
[ In Reply To ..]
ran an expose on Fox News host Bill O’Reilly’s alleged history of sexual harassment. The article resurrected settled disputes and ran unverified information.
Recently, the NYT posted an op-ed from Marwan Barghouti. They said Barghouti is “a Palestinian leader and parliamentarian.” It failed to mention he is a convicted terrorist who is imprisoned on five counts of murder and has orchestrated the killings of hundreds of Israelis.
This is another symptom of a backward and biased media. They run unverified information, but leave out relevant facts too.

Let's take rodeo clown.
1. Called school and requested that principal, acting as Obama clown, be disciplined and/or removed.
So, call university and ask he be disciplined or removed.
2. School did nothing. Rodeo banned him for life. Hey! That's your capitalism at work. Missouri State Fair (a struggling business) banned him.
3. Obama clown was RACIST. We have legislation protecting against discrimination on basis of RACE.
4. I don't think in its artsy form this could be taken as a credible threat. Guess SS could investigate?? Probably did
5. It REALLY bothers me that you followers think that a pledge of respect is needed (smacks of N. Korea) and can be ENFORCED, on the basis of honoring your dictator. If you don't like it...speak to the problem...find a phone number...letter to editor...march/protest....IMO...in this case show your ignorance.
When this is done to the left they call it "racist" - Try drawing a picture of a Muslim

with a decapitated head and see if they call it "art" and "freedom"
No, they call it hate speech. Hypocrites!
Logic 101 - Definition of hate speech
[ In Reply To ..]
Hate speech, outside the law, is speech that attacks a person or group on the basis of attributes such as gender, ethnic origin, religion, race, disability, or sexual orientation.
How does this art work fit into this definition?
Define "hate." Liberal answer: Anything I disagree - with.
