5 pages?!?!

Gotdamn yall need some consistency in your lives.

"I prefer war heroes with two eyes."

I like it. Superior to SNL's joke imo.

 

[snakedafunky]

I am wondering how many innocent people that guy has killed in America's oil wars?
But its probably easier to talk about the joke than asking real questions.

Ask any democrat if they think that Alec Baldwin would be a better president than Trump and then come make that statement.

Well I don't think that you set the bar particularly high here.

Alec Baldwin could do as good or better job than Trump as President.

But I'm sure you could ad-lib a lot of celebrities and the sentence still works.

I'd even say this one too,

Alec Baldwin pretending to be Donald Trump could do as good or better job than Donald Trump as President.

War room is addictive lol. But yes it’s time to go ..

 

[n...not crazy]

I'm not triggered by SNL and pretty much EVERY late night show. Just bored.

 

[sangreporsangre]

SNL = Still Not Laughing. Do people still watch this crap?

 

[bobgeese]

Could you please name five people who "speak for the left"?

I’ll just leave this here,

 

[Fawlty]

Getting hypocritically fired up about a mildly edgy bad joke? Seems like a waste of brain space.

And no, the cast of a late night comedy show should not be held to the same standards for decorum as the POTUS. People should not require instruction on this.

Good change that SEAL outlives Pete Davidson though.

 

[HereticBD]

I'm offended at how terrible the "joke" was.

So after the almost universal lambasting of General Kelly(who is in the service and a gold star father) among other service members, is the left finally deciding it’s ok to disrespect veterans?

Pete Davidson is not funny but I expect someone to come in here and defend this trash.

Complaining about a bad joke a SATIRE show makes? Where was this outrage when the President is shitting on POW’s?

I think it was about societies double standard reactions to both, what you said is obvious

I like Piers Morgan when he is in England. He actually is fairly conservative.

It was the double ‘whatever’ that did it for me.

With two simple sneering words, comedian Pete Davidson reduced an American war hero’s battlefield wounds to a casual, grotesquely dismissive punchline on Saturday Night Live.

Davidson, best known for his recently terminated engagement with pop superstar Ariana Grande, smirked as he said it, like a naughty schoolboy.

‘This guy is kinda cool, Dan Crenshaw,’ he said, referring to the Republican candidate for Texas’ 2nd Congressional District in tomorrow’s midterm elections.

Crenshaw’s photo appeared on screen, showing him in an eye patch that he has worn since his right eye was blown to pieces while fighting for his country.
Michael Che, Davidson’s co-host on SNL’s regular ‘Weekend Update’ segment, sighed loudly ‘Oh come on man,’ – perhaps sensing, or more likely knowing, something very inappropriate was about to happen.

‘You may be surprised to hear he’s a congressional candidate from Texas, and not a hit man in a porno movie,’ Davidson continued.

Then, as the audience laughed and his co-host guffawed, he mocked: ‘I’m sorry, I know he lost his eye in war or whatever…’

Pause.

‘Whatever.’

His double ‘whatever’ hung in the air like a defiant, repugnant two fingers to Crenshaw and his military service and gallantry.

Social media instantly erupted into howls of indignant fury.

Usually when it does that over a tasteless joke, I find myself racing to tell everyone to stop being an over-offended snowflake and calm down.

But on this occasion, I shared the outrage; Davidson’s comments crossed a basic line of human decency.

It didn't exist. Thats sort of the point in all of this but everyone is missing it. We only care when the other side does it.
Half of us think its retarded that Megan Kelly got canned for saying its ok to dress up in a Whitney Houston costume, while wondering why this shithead nobody gets a pass for mocking injured vets.

Kelly's comments didn't hurt anyone and neither did this nonsense, honestly. But where it our sense of balance?

 

[zebby23]

Lol at new low... I like people who weren’t captured. I think that is still the low

Oh, also grab em by the pussy. Just start kissing them, you can do whatever you want.

Oh' and don't forget, "I've witnessed girls being drugged and gang raped, and didn't do anything."

 

[EradiatedHaggis]

No one seems to be talking about the most shocking part of all this.

CNN was actually defending the Republican/Veteran and attacking SNL.

 

[DeepCover]

I really don’t think it’s a huge deal. Few things are ever off limits at SNL, or comedy in general. I personally didn’t like it or think it was funny, but it’s just not a huge deal in the grand scheme.

I’m most amused by the media jumping all over this like they have. I love watching liberals eat their own, or at least attempt to.

One is a joke on a late night comedy show that is full of edgy humor. The other was a sincere conversation on a daytime talkshow. I didn't think Megyn Kelly should have been fired for that comment, but it is obviously a completely different genre of entertainment.
