Oscars Observes Moment Of Silence For Undocumented Murderer Tragically Called ‘Illegal’
The Babylon Bee ^ | March 10, 2024

The Oscars ceremonies were paused this evening for attendants to observe a moment of silence for the undocumented murder José Antonio Ibarra, who was tragically referred to as "illegal" by President Biden earlier this week.

"No one is illegal," said a tearful Jimmy Kimmel as the murderer's picture was displayed. "Let us all take a moment to honor the undocumented, as we reflect on the pain and anguish it caused this man to hear himself described as an 'illegal'. It is a pain no vicious murderer should ever have to experience."

The Oscars attendees solemnly stood and looked into the eyes of the man who bludgeoned a young woman to death, considering the deep wound a hurtful word like "illegal" must have wrought. Though President Biden had already apologized for using the despicable term to describe the killer, the Academy felt a moment of silence was needed to help bring true healing.

Don’t be too hard on yourself.

It’s the rare talent of the skilled satirist that’s on display here.

BB is really killing it these days.

Satire, not satire. Maybe not really at the Oscars but it’s how liberals are acting right now.

I watched Hoosiers, one of the best movies ever made.

Then I came here and saw what Cena did:

Why would anyone be surprised Hollywood who helped cheat us of the last election by constantly propagandizing the public would show nudity on a prime time show for a general audience.
They are morally corrupt. Cena should spend a week in jail for indecent exposure and the FCC should fine the Oscar’s for a 100 million dollars.

IMO

Sadly, most of us weren’t sure whether or not it was satire.

I had no trouble believing this was true before I saw it was the Bee.

Got me until I hit the line “No one is illegal,” said a tearful Jimmy Kimmel.... That is past tense [...]

Actually, that is the Present Simple Tense.

We commonly use the present simple to refer to the past when we want to make events sound as if they are happening now. For example, news headlines are commonly written in the present simple.

Class dismissed!

Regards,
