...In front of 1,500 people at the event, Depp decided to use their captive attention to spew hatred for our president and promote assassination.
“I think he needs help and there are a lot of wonderful dark, dark places he could go,” Depp said. Since the crowd immediately responded with cheers, the actor was encouraged to continue with his disparaging remarks, and it only got worse.
“It is just a question – I’m not insinuating anything. By the way, this is going to be in the press. It will be horrible. I like that you are all a part of it,” he said, according to The Guardian.
“When was the last time an actor assassinated a president?” he asked in reference to the death of Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth in 1865. “I want to qualify, I am not an actor. I lie for a living. However, it has been a while and maybe it is time,” he added...
Well it's official I will never see a movie acted, directed or produced by this scum bag Johnny Depp.
You are dead to me.
Good riddance.
Not as good-looking.
Too bad, I usually enjoy watching his movies.
He’s been dead to me for well over a decade.
Nah. Boothe killed Lincoln at the height of his career. Depp is a beat-up looking has-been at this point.
What makes the Guardian think Depp even knew about John Wilkes Booth? He was saying it like he meant it has never happened.
May he meet the same end ...
Not that Johnny will realize how stupid he sounds, but John Wilkes Booth assassinated the president who freed the slaves because Booth was a Southern partisan and did not want the abolition of slavery.
Great analogy there, Depp (or is that Dope?).
Just suppose some conservative actor had said the exact same thing about 0bama. Where do you suppose he’d be right now?
Johnny Depp is the male Scarlett Johanssen.
And no I do not care if I misspelled her name.
Depp is aware that things did not end well for Booth, isn't he?
Depp always seemed sinister to me. I never liked him. He’s not even a very good actor.
(Maybe he’s more like John Wilkes Booth than we thought.)
He and Montag both must go to prison. If a conservative were to have said what these men have said, they would have been prosecuted and jailed. This stuff has to stop NOW.
It appears Johnny Depped in it.
Let’s break his leg, set his house on fire and shoot him in the neck when he comes out.
I agree with you.
The jerk wanted attention and he got it, he won’t like a lot of it.
Two months ago this dumb bastard was in Arkansas decrying the pending executions of child killers, murderers, etc. As far as I’ m concerned they could have strapped him to a gurney and ran him through the mill right behind those thugs.
I’ve never liked the arrogant little ba$tard.
Federal troops hunted down John Wilkes Booth and shot and killed him.
The same thing can happen to Johnny Dip $hit for all I care.
Sick the feds after him.
The comparison falls short. More than a century and one-half later, people still recognize Booth’s name.
