Express doubt that the situation will help reduce tensions between two opposing sides. Criticize a certain group of people for not taking responsibility and making excuses.
Good comment!  I wonder if this situation will help two combative ends of the spectrum to tone it down a few notches.  Unfortunately, I doubt it.  Irrespective of the fact that Kathy Griffin has since apologized, certain other zealous segments of the population never seem to be willing to admit their own culpability.  We see it here in the comments right now... with certain commentators bleating on about how this action is okay because so-and-so did something similar several years ago.  Pathetic!
