Accused Dave Chappelle attacker Isaiah Lee reveals why he tackled comedian
NY Post ^ | May 22, 2022 | By Marjorie Hernandez

The Los Angeles man accused of attacking Dave Chappelle said he was “triggered” by the comedian’s jokes about the LGBTQ community and homelessness — as he insisted he never wanted to harm the funnyman.

In an exclusive jailhouse interview, Isaiah Lee told The Post that Chappelle should be more “sensitive” when it comes to the jokes he cracks.

“I identify as bisexual … and I wanted him to know what he said was triggering,” Lee said Saturday at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles, dressed in brown jail garb and sporting a sling on his broken right arm.

He said his breaking point came when another comedian in the show’s lineup made a crude joke about pedophilia — which Lee said dredged up memories of his own molestation as a teen.

Yeah!! He should be mocking, ridiculing and slandering Christians instead! No one ever persecutes or slanders them!

Then don’t go to a show where the comedian is known to talk about such things. I also heard Chappelle is gay so doubly weak argument on this guy’s part.

So he’s gay and was molested as a kid.

Sounds like the anti-grooming people are spot on.

Triggered? What a joke. It is both amazing and sad how the Left has perverted our language.

Anyway, some comedians just might start to censor themselves after such an incident. But I think Chappelle will not. The guy really is a freedom fighter.

Chapelle is the ONLY famous person in the country who can get away with pointing out all the hypocrisy with the LGBT crap. Anyone sticking it to these deviants deserves our ongoing support.

Dave Chappelle is married to a Asian woman of Thai decent and has two or three kids.

That’s exactly the way it’s supposed to work. But unfortunately, the times have changed.

Old-school liberal: What you are saying offends me. So I will not listen to it.
Modern liberal: What you are saying offends me. So no one must listen to it.

Just because youve been triggered doesnt mean you get to assault people.

Triggered? He/it/she/they/whatever doesn’t know how to walk out or change the channel?

Well that’s a relief; I’ve been waiting to hear your self-righteous motivation. Now I can get on with my life.

Dave Chapelle is not actually gay. He won an award and joked that he was gay and couldn’t wait to see what it would do for his career.

The kids today are taught that if they do not like something then they can say it is not their fault if they acted out and bused violent because someone else triggered their response.

I say beat their ass and let them know they triggered our response.

Yea, but, I’ve heard he might have had in the past or maybe currently been involved in the other direction. I think he may have talked about(?), but the info was out there.
