Slapgate I thought it was staged until I heard Rock's response after the cussing. He got flustered. This is why it is good that I watch Kojak--who knew how important hair or the lack there of would become? L.A. Reinstitutes Mask Mandate To Protect People From Getting Slapped By Will Smith LOS ANGELES, CA—Following a dangerous upward trend of getting slapped by Will Smith, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has reinstituted a mask mandate to protect against further occurrences of getting slapped by Will Smith. “CDC data proves conclusively and without a fiber of doubt that mask mandates offer significant protection from Will Smith, in the event you are near him and say something remotely funny,” said Director of Public Health, Dr. Barbara Ferrer. “However, for the safety of others, we also ask that all citizens practice social distancing of at least one mile from Will Smith.” When asked if she believed mask mandates would protect against Will Smith in the event someone made reference—humorous or not—about his wife Jada brazenly sleeping with other men in the name of an “open marriage,” Dr. Ferrer referred to data indicating that only harmless jokes about a non-lethal, slightly embarrassing health condition would trigger a Will Smith incident. The health director then added that, in order to prevent those around him from getting slapped, Will Smith should also wear a mask. LOLOLOL. Well we should follow CDC guidelines

Smith was definitely wrong here. Everyone has got the right to offend. Everyone has got the right to be offended. But no-one ever has the right to resort to 'violence'. He should have gone to Rock after the show and tell him the truth. Solve it with dignity and honor. Now he looks like a petty street thug. I’m inclined to agree with most posts here… however… as a fellow head shaver surely you must agree that a world where people who mock bald people get smacked is quite appealing. I’d like Will Smith with me the next time I get a Lex Luthor joke. Neo Nazis are now calling for Smith's protection

Ill just copy and paste what I said yesterday from another forum:
I guess I can understand Smith's pov but c'mon he's meant to be a joker himself too...
Maybe there's more to just this joke? Some other crap we dont know about or it could just have been a bad night for Will
I can respect a guy who defends his wife but still...
This could be expensive for Will too...
He may not be invited to other award shows. Also Chris can still go to the police

Also it's rather cringey with reactions that Will Smith is meant to be some kind of role model..
ahh violence happens every day but let's blame Will Smith for all future wrongdoings against comedians...

Multiple news outlets reporting it, including Tickpix who I guess is where you go to get the tickets. Slight correction tho… “We sold more tickets to see Chris Rock overnight than we did in the past month combined.“ Is what they quoted.

I actually did a quick search and yeah I’m seeing a lot of reports of spiked sales. Only in Twitterverse am I seeing “but people are offended” type comments. Heyyy. If everybody wants to live in a sterile world where it’s a crime to be offended, let me know, because I want to move. If you can’t take being a little offended in stride you need to toughen up a little. That’s my policy ;-)

I feel it often acts as an echo chamber for many people in order to not believe they are as alone as they feel. I post there ever day.

And the joke is not that funny or offensive. It's was a total softball pitch. Rock was on his game to realize that at the moment.
Smith ruined the moment he'd worked his whole life for over G.I. Jane. It is a 25-year-old movie rooted in female empowerment and famous for Demi Moore calling it her "proudest professional achievement."
This clearly wasn't about the joke. My guess is that Smith was just angry at Rock for frequently targeting the Smith family in his routines.

My guess is that Smith was just angry at Rock for frequently targeting the Smith family in his routines. I suspect that had something to do with it as well. He was just plainly in the wrong for what in the end was a fairly tame joke. And it happened on what was to be the most important night of his career (and probably the remainder of such). I don't think he should have the Oscar rescinded from him. But perhaps being barred from awards shows for a set amount of time. Also, therapy.

We need more positive representation!

If she was sensitive about it she could have put on a wig like Telly Savalas did in the last Kojak I watched.
What this showed though was how boring these movies are.
King Richard, The Eyes of Tammy Faye...
No one wants these stories.
Why are they wasting money on this crap? And I bet the money for these things is being funneled from taxpayers. There's no way a profit is coming from these things.
They were memory-holed even before the Slappening.

Amy Schumer Horrified To Learn You Can Now Get Slapped For Bad Jokes
LOS ANGELES, CA—After an eventful Oscars ceremony in which Will Smith assaulted Chris Rock over a quip about his wife's hair, comedienne Amy Schumer became horrified by the realization you can now get slapped in the face for telling a bad joke.
"Wait, we can get slapped for this now?" she said wide-eyed. "Bad, poor-taste jokes about female body parts are all I know. Does that mean a psycho Hollywood star can slap me and just walk away and still get an award? Oh no! I have to get out of here!"
According to sources, Schumer will be in hiding for several months until she can come up with material unlikely to get her slapped. "I have to get back to the basics," she said. "What is a joke? Can anyone tell me?"
With the comedy world having been put on notice, many comedians are deciding to avoid telling jokes to roomfuls of mentally ill narcissists for the time being.

I want next year to be completely dry and drab, no humor, no emotion…nothing. Over correct and ruin the whole damn thing.
Totally boring. Just as life intended.

The next time any comedian makes a joke about death, I'm going to slap them into the next life.

So earlier it was reported that Will Smith was asked to leave the ceremony by an Academy rep. But according to a TMZ report (take with a grain of salt) this is actually not true.
