TAMPA - About 200 people walked out of Amy Schumer's comedy show at the Amalie Arena in Tampa Sunday when she mocked Donald Trump as, among other things, an "orange, sexual-assaulting, fake- college-starting monster." (Read Jay Cridlin's review of the show).
Loud booing from a vocal, but small minority of the arena crowd started about halfway through the show, when Schumer's raunchy humor veered into more topical matters, including gun control and the presidential election. She has been a vocal advocate for stricter gun laws since a man opened fire during a showing of her movie Train Wreck last year, killing two young women, Mayci Breaux and Jillian Johnson, in Louisiana, and was an early Hillary Clinton supporter,
She made it clear she doesn't understand how people can support Trump. At one point, she asked for a Trump supporter - preferably one with sleeves, she told security personnel - to join her up on stage to explain their enthusiasm for Trump. One fellow did, but he said he was voting for Trump mainly because he doesn't trust Clinton. When some audience members booed, the actor/comedian invited them to leave and also asked security to remove anyone booing.
"I don't want to hear that. We wanted to have a good night without distractions with the politics," said Bryon Infinger.
"It's a bit much," echoed his wife, Chrissy Infinger.
They both said everybody has a right to their opinion but thought Schumer went on too long.
"The show became political. I definitely didn't come to hear this," said Ryan Atwood.

I no longer patronize one, and Mrs WBill no longer patronizes the other. I'll let you figure out which is which. :-)
Big f'n deal. A pissant peddling pisswater. I wouldn't drink anything "brewed" by Anheuser-Busch if it was the only adult beverage offered.
Thank you!!!
Care to join me in letting Anheuser Busch know your opinion of their spokesperson, Amy Schemer?

Amy Schumer considers herself a comedian. Well Amy, your brand of comedy is about as funny as an empty CARE package on Christmas morning.
Yes, I knew that dirt bag Chuck is her uncle.
If this bitch ever gets run over by a drunk driving illegal alien, is it OK to laugh?
“She has been a vocal advocate for stricter gun laws since a man opened fire during a showing of her movie Train Wreck last year...”
The most exciting thing to ever happen during an Amy Schumer movie.
Why any Trump supporter would pay good money to see this talentless fugly a$$hole is beyond me.
“Why would any Trump fans have gone in the first place?”
Good question. New Fox news channel viewers, former liberals mugged by a left-wing skank and raunchy broad pretending to be a comic?
Like Maher, she’s one of the worst, truly despicable. Deplorable even.
What Trump fans would be dumb enough to go to an Amy Schumer event? Did they think they were going to hear her sing, “All about that bass?”
I’ve never seen them with subtitles, and frankly, you’d miss out on a lot with the voice-overs, there are certain things that Koreans do when they speak that really spice things up, and they’d get lost in the translation.
Ooops, I meant I never saw them without subtitles.
“Chuck and Amy Schumer are not, I believe, as closely related as uncle and niece. Think they are second cousins or second cousins, once removed.”

Found this article, also trying to get the relation - I believe the latest story from Amy Schemer,is that she’s a distant cousin just as you say, (she’s a real piece of work according to the original interview), and you are correct.
Hard to see why Schumer would find sexual assault objectionable - it’s usually the kind of thing she jokes about.....
Not a big patron of either but NOT ONE DOLLAR MORE!
They showed poor taste and judgement to go there in the first place.
Yours is a story that made me COL (chuckle out loud). Great job. I wish I could have been there to experience your hilariously outlandish behavior but your writing is so good, it was almost like I was there.
When I grow up I want to be like you.
Of course.
