THE OSCARS INCIDENT
- Vinnie's favorite movie of the year was "King Richard."
- He doesn't watch the Oscars, but he's seen clips and memes of the incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock.
- It is in part so crazy because Will Smith is such a prolific actor.
- This violent response makes you wonder -- what is going on with
him, and what happened to decorum?
- There's also concern about precedent -- comedians often cross
lines and we can't try to censor them.
- There were infinitely better ways Will Smith could have handled this.
- There's also concern about precedent -- comedians often cross
lines and we can't try to censor them.
- His acceptance speech also seemed pretty crazy.
- "Love makes you do crazy things" is no excuse for violence.
Ever.
- And while his apologies were a step in the right direction, he did not apologize to Chris Rock.
- "Love makes you do crazy things" is no excuse for violence.
Ever.
- That said, this was a bad joke.
- But these people are role models, and Will Smith must do better.
