Chris Rock Rips Jussie Smollett at NAACP Image Awards: ‘What the Hell was He Thinking’
Breitbart ^ | March 31, 2019 | Ben Kew

Posted on 03/31/2019 9:17:34 AM PDT by be-baw

Chris Rock slammed actor Jussie Smollett at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) Image Awards on Saturday, declaring that the embattled Empire star had lost his respect.

...

“They said no Jussie Smollett jokes,” Chris Rock said. “I know. What a waste of light skin. You know what I could do with that light skin? That curly hair? My career would be out of here. F****** running Hollywood.”

...

“What the hell was he thinking?” Rock warned. “From now on, you’re Jessie from now on. You don’t even get the ‘U’ no more. That ‘U’ was respect. You don’t get no respect from me.”

Well he was thinking that he was going to help is friend Kamala with her anti-lynching bill by staging a fake lynching and blaming it on us, and that he was going to get away with it because he knows all the right Democrats.

And that’s what happened.

You probably don’t even know who he is or have seen him do stand up once.

But you sound like a positive thinking and fun guy :)

Chris rock isnt perfect but he goes against the grain often.

Chris Rock’s perspective is likely that Smollett’s error was thinking that he could get “justice” in Racisss AmeriKKKa. Chris Rock can be hilarious, but he always supports his tribe against all others; principles be damned. Rock would have been fine with it if Smollett had managed to get away with the hoax.

"You don’t get no respect from me."

A Double negative equals a positive, which means, when translated from Ebonics into English, "you do get respect from me."

Actually i do...many of his past stand ups made fun of white men...i have two interracial kids and my wife is black...i give bo creds to anyone who divides races at the expense of one race or the other. Look up his previous acts. Blind squirrel found a nut.

Naacp needs to be disbanded as a hate organization.

“A Double negative equals a positive, which means, when translated from Ebonics into English, “you do get respect from me.””

A literal translation, you’re right. But Ebonics often doesn’t translate literally into English as is the case with most languages, if you really want to understand what was meant.

I believe he meant “Jesse [sic] gets no respect from me.

Rock is right for the wrong reasons. He still has to inject a little “white people bad” into his rant.

That’s actually a really good video.

Not just funny, but common sense.

“what was he thinking, getting caught so easily?” is probably his outraged thought.

So they wanted to censor Chris Rock? Good for him for speaking out.

Yes, and here’s what Chris has to say about “his people!” He correctly analyzes the problem.
