Plaza Theatre hosting Kathy Griffin in Palm Springs is unacceptable

I am withdrawing any future support from the Plaza Theatre due to management's decision to host the Kathy Griffin residency next year . This booking represents a glaring double standard. In 2017, Griffin posed with a mock, blood-soaked severed head of a sitting U.S. president , crossing the line from satire into graphic, targeted violence. She vocally wished for Donald Trump's death multiple times, including a tweet that he should be given a "syringe with nothing but air inside it." If a comedian depicted graphic violence against a prominent LGBTQ+ icon such as Lady Gaga or Elton John, or the mayor of Palm Springs, or a different political leader, would this institution give them a platform? By hosting her, management appears to signal that graphic political violence and targeted, public death wishes are acceptable if the target belongs to a specific political party. To give her a residency just adds insult to injury, rewarding behavior that would get anyone else permanently blacklisted. As a local resident, I will not subsidize this corporate hypocrisy, which is a shame coming from a musicain who truly loves to support orchestra and symphonies around the world.

See what's in former Antique Galleries owner's new Palm Springs store

(This story was updated to add new information.) There may be no land, or any cattle, but the Palm Springs Land and Cattle Co. sure has a whole lot else to offer curious shoppers. The latest project of former Antique Galleries owner Mike Rivkin , Land and Cattle Co. aims to bring a new approach to vintage stores. From $2,000 handcrafted model cars to $50 Italian Air Force espresso sets, Rivkin hopes to attract a different kind of buyer to his new business at 590 S. Indian Canyon Drive, which will open on Thursday, Nov. 19. "At the end of the day, its stuff that I like and respond well to and I’m hoping there’s enough people out there like me that feel the same way," Rivkin said. Earlier this year, Rivkin decided to close the antique store he'd run for 12 years just off Sunny Dunes Road so he could retire. At the time, he told The Desert Sun he wanted to "drift off into my dotage with a little less to do." Apparently, a "little less" meant starting a new store, with all the headaches that go along with preparing for a grand opening. But Rivkin, who writes
