Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.
He appeared to reply: “Don’t miss Trump next time.”
Gass also split with his agent following the incident.
I guess trump is the only one allowed to make disrespectful comments about other people that almost die and it is just ok.
No, it’s not okay. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Criticizing the language Trump uses but then praising Kyle would be hypocrisy.
I don’t think he’s saying either are okay, just pointing out the double standard. That’s how I read it anyway.
So you don’t think it’s ok for trump to make disrespectful comments about other people that almost die? Hmmmm
So you have no reading comprehension? Hmmmm
Bet you can’t explain to me how I’m wrong about his comment lol
Explain to me how he didnt imply that it’s not ok for trump to do it.
Or maybe you’re the one with terrible reading comprehension?
The comment is criticizing the fact that Trump can seemingly say and do whatever he wants and gets away with it. While if anyone else does it they’re called out on it.
So you think the implication of the original post was “everyone should be able to make disrespectful comments about people that almost die and it’s ok”?
Or is the implication “it’s not ok for people to make disrespectful comments about people that almost die”?
This isn’t complicated, those are the only two interpretations of the original comment. Only one of them is a realistic interpretation, and it - along with a lot of comments in this thread - are overtly hypocritical.
Don’t think I’ll win over you or the hypocrite-hivemind, and I don’t particularly care. Later.
Cool overdramatic story, bro
Uhhh what lol
Explaining how reading works = overdramatic
Is English your native language?
Look man, you’re obviously trying way too hard to argue with someone. It’s not going to be with me, I couldn’t care less what you think.
Brush up on your English lessons and chill the fuck out.
It’s clearly not yours.
