Poor guy. Must have been a terrible experience for him.

One of the few Indian-American actors to make it big in Hollywood, Penn has said he was inspired to get involved in politics partly by his grandparents, who marched with Mahatma Gandhi in the Indian independence movement.

His grandparents marched with Ghandi, and he ended up working for the anti-Ghandi. Life is funny like that.

Is that the asshat from the “I’m a Mac” commercials on the right (next to the hot girl).

That is Justin Long is the MAC commercials....Penn is not on those...

"What hot girl? "

This one:




Not hired for her brain, presumably.

As per the report at MyFoxDC

FOX 5 has confirmed Kal Penn -- aka Kumar from that "White Castle" movie -- was robbed at gunpoint early Tuesday morning while walking in the 1500 block of F Street NW in Washington D.C.

He also acknowledged it will result in a large pay cut: “There’s not a lot of financial reward in these jobs. But, obviously, the opportunity to serve in a capacity like this is an incredible honor.”

Well, either he doesn't know how to parley the gig, or he knows exactly how to parley the gig!

“Don’t care what his job is now...he does not deserve to be robbed...nobody does. Prayers to him for continued safety”

Stupidity has consequences....Democrats policies usually hurt EVERYONE...I would rather it be an Obama Butt kisser than an innocent family not allowed to own a gun

It was a drug deal gone bad.

Can’t really feel to sorry for him
