On a related note, in an act of reconciliation to Chris Rock, Will Smith has arranged for Chris to costar in a Alec Baldwin western shoot.

I think you are both wrong.

A week or two.

the slap left no mark

Don't want to get into an argument, but watch the slap again in high def. My wife and I noticed that Chris Rock was favoring his left cheek when he tried to smile. His face was even before the slap, but afterward his smile was lopsided, kind of like a sneer but not under his control.

Not necessarily.

Sony and Netflix may not have known anything about it.

Second, perhaps it was planned, and how everyone involved thought it would be received, were waaaay off on how it actually was received.

I don’t now think it was faked. But it could have been and it just went sideways, at least on Will.

“women of America are sick of wimpy men”.

Amen, and agreed, brother!! FFS, I’m sick of wimpy men. Almost every morning whilst trying to enjoy my coffee, and a cigarette (regardless of channel), I’m “forced” to suffer through an HIV PSA from “Alphonso” whom appears to have a twisted piece of feces on his skull cap. The cultural rot that has occurred in this nation over the last couple of decades will cost us dearly in the future (I know I’m preaching to the choir). Will Smith will be just fine, and his contracts will return when the corporations in question realize which “cash cow” they sent “out to pasture”, and the whining, crying, faceless morons on social media find their next shiny object/Squirrel to focus on. Do I think what he did was right?.....not in that situation. However, I do believe his loss of contracts from Netflix, Sony, Etc. is (as usual) nothing more than virtue signaling, and projection from the usual subjects.

Violent assault is a crime that should be prosecuted. You don't need to ask anyone's permission before arresting and charging the perp.

“Imagine the howls if the Shaft remake woulda had somebody like Keanu Reeves or Bradley Cooper in the lead role”.

That’s actually a damn good idea and it opens up a whole lot of paths for mischief.

Imagine the remake of “Roots” with the lead role played by .....

No kidding? and NO I am not familiar.

So if you were to commit a crime against someone, and they refused to press charges, but a witness wants to, they can’t either?

gentlemen of free republic.. I will tell you a secret. Despite what some of you may think, women of America are sick of wimpy men who don't have the courage to defend their honor in public.

By ”defend their honor” do you mean letting other men sleep with their wife while they sit by and watch?
Is that what you think women want?
What's macho or manly about that?
How is all the violence working out for the very high murder rate young black men and women in the big Dem run cities? So you think next time you go watch a stand up comedian, you can just get up and go slap the comedian because you don't like his jokes?

Willie needs to hire Jussie’s “lawyer” to get him out of this mess.

That was the LAPD comment on the incident. They were aware of the incident. They were ready and able to arrest Will Smith IF Chris Rock pressed charges. He did not. So they did not. That’s all I know (from their spokesperson).

But it still leaves the Pfizer/alopecia conspiracy theory intact. 🙂

Well, I thought everyone was forcing me to believe it was fake! You know, where you get up in front of hundreds of millions worldwide - live even - and assault and battery someone and then march back to your seat and at the top of your lungs scream - not once - but twice - to keep my wife's name out of your f**king mouth. Followed by a deathly silence in the auditorium and then a clearly rattled Chris Rock, stammers some and then continues on with the show.

These same people want me to believe in Q, too. By the way, they think they know who Q is/was. They believe it was the first two guys that started Q and they live in South Africa, I think. Bagster's crushed.

Get back to me when you have a relevant question or are prepared to actually answer the very relevant questions I asked you.
