Rock’s special angered thought leaders and influencers on the left, who called it "shocking," with some even arguing that he deserved to be slapped live on air in front of millions of people.

"thought leaders"

Now there's a clue. baaaaaaaaaaaaa! baaaaaaaaaa!

Tell all the sheep what to think because unless someone does so, they're, well, thoughtless. NPCs shuffling about aimlessly

Guess they’re the ones that will lead the Two Minutes of Hate each day.

I don't think it's one of his better efforts and was too long but like the fact it is pissing off the usual suspects.
There seem to be a number of the more moderate liberals that are finally coming out with well deserved criticism of the real loons on their side.

The Will Smith stuff.

And since you don't seem to know it, SIGforum has black members. Think before you post. How many times have I said this to you?

You’ve been more than fair to me para and most courteous Yes, I know we have black forum members and I hope these members understand how much crap is being shoved our way about being tolerant and understanding on deaf ears when I see the murders, rapes, robberies, cities, neighborhoods destroyed.

I’m having health, anger issues and open my yap before thinking. If punishment is needed, I’ll take it with no ill feelings. I’m responsible for my own doing. Thanks para.

Still not the best part. Completely omitted the Emancipation jokes which were the best of the entire show.

I don't need explanations as to why you're condemning every single person of a particular race. It doesn't matter why you're doing it. You just have to avoid doing it, and the fact that you tell me that you know we have black members but you said this anyway is screwed up.

After you compose a post and before you hit the 'Post Now' button, I want you to stop and read what you've typed out, and then carefully consider what you are saying in that post. I am telling you- you need to actually do this each and every time.

SAGE advice there!!! Not only for this forum, but for ANYTHING posted on the Al Gore Interwebs. I can't tell you how many times I've written a lengthy post/retort/snarky comment, read through it SEVERAL times, and subsequently clicked delete/cancel/what-have-you. Probably saved faced with that technique on more than two or three occasions.

Thank you fellas.

Sounds like he tore up Will And Jada Smith as well.

It’s increasingly clear to me that stand-up “comedy” outrages liberals.

Humor was the first casualty of wokeness.

Well damn, I've clicked by this show many times as I've got to really be in the mood to spend and hour or so watching stand-up. But now, it's at the top of my list.

The comments are great because I can easily visualize their sad little liberal faces with furrowed brow.

Yep, probably got as many deleted posts as I do posts LOL.....

The end part where Rock verbally eviscerated the Smiths was a totally worthy reward for sitting through a very unspectacular middle part of the set.

Chris Rock's new comedy special outrages liberals on Twitter: 'Shocking,' ‘Turned my whole TV off’

Turned off your whole TV, huh? Wow, that's something. Usually when I turn off my TV, I just turn off part of it, so you must have been really, really mad.

They were probably mad enough to get out their fully semi-automatic rifle, if they had one!

I watched it live and enjoyed it. Not his best stuff by far, but moderately entertaining.

Wasn’t Chris Rock who did a video about how to act during a police encounter, traffic stop,to avoid issues? I liked this video about Megan and the slap issues, in law comments,etc.

I watched it and it was hilarious. Talked about lots of people besides Will Smith.

If someone is going to keep score for who he used as material or offended, the list is long and includes his own family. He used Harry Markle too.

Seriously funny stuff.

Liberals use to say, "Stick and stones..." but now they can't even do that. JFK's famous line asked for people to think of things they can do for the country and today? "Gimme."

Liberals are triggered just by the fact there are others out there who aren't them.

The older I get the more I like Sasquatch's idea of avoiding people. People are problems.

Yes and it was very funny!

My wife and I just watched it. It had its funny moments, but, he has done much funnier material.

Re: The bit about Will Smith and his wife: It appeared to me Rock is pretty pissed/bitter over that incident.
