Jack Black axes tour over bandmate's Trump comment
Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment on stage about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
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.
You're viewing part of a thread.
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
