This guy is brilliant and really funny. I like the way he thinks. Here's the quote lifted from his acceptance speech. "The First Amendment is first for a reason. The Second is just in case the first one doesn’t work out." So true.

That’s great coming from a guy that says he doesn’t even like guns.

He owns several guns. As long as he supports second amendment rights his personal preferences are not my concern. Check out his Netflix specials. He is good.

I’ve followed Dave for years. His last special when he discussed hating guns but owns them anyway is what I’m referring to and I applaud him for his support.

Thanks Para. Looks like so far they have the footage of his speech locked down.

I remember when Dave put this video out; shortly after, Comedy Central paid him his money.

This runs about 20 minutes but I really believe is worth the watch…

Dave attacked on stage.

People losing their G.D. mind.

Stories and video seem to show that he got his ass beat while/after being dragged off stage.

It's a real story.



Chappelle, I guess jokingly, said it was a "trans man". Chris Rock was there also.
