Oh I see… so if an actor streaks on stage and refuses to leave then the academy would just toss up their hands and say “oh well?”

BS.

Will Smith can go jump off a cliff for all I care. He should take the entire audience of the academy award with him as he goes over the edge. He’s ghetto scum and he’s shown it to the entire planet. He diminished the audience as well as black people by acting out on his thug instincts and being a pathetic candy ass cuck who could whore out his wife but couldn’t bear a silly joke.

"Mr. Smith's actions at the 94th Oscars were a deeply shocking, traumatic event to witness in-person and on television

Former PA Treasurer Bud Dywer's televised suicide....now THAT was traumatic.

This was mere slapstick.

Looks like the Academy made a half-assed attempt to do the right thing and eject Smith, but was too gutless to follow through. And Will Smith really is the smug, arrogant guy he portrays in most of his films. Cock of the walk.

What if it was a white guy who slapped Rock?

He would have been forced to leave the country.

It was “wasis” to ask him to leave. He was just doing a black supremacy thing.

Why wasn’t Rock wearing a mask? Would’ve helped.

So not only did he commit an assault and battery, he was technically trespassing when the Academy handed him an award. I would have thrown it at his feet and smashed it.

So they just went ahead and handed one of their dumb trophies to a guy who committed an assault on live TV and then refused to leave?

I need a new scorecard. Mine is wrecked from all the erasing, correcting and modifying. I suppose it’s a faux pas to ask for a clean one . . .

If Will Smith likes to slap comedians, I dare him to slap Joe Rogan.

It showed in the way he swaggered and smirked after he battered a man on live TV.

I believe everything I see on television, especially by actors at the Oscars.

Entire episode reeks of staged.
