I don't think the discussion should be about removing awards at all. Especially not retroactively. If someone was JUST jailed for murder yeah of course, make them ineligible Spacey has loads of accounts of misconduct and claims that haven't been litigated fully about attempted assault. It's complicated. To me this one was very simple. Security escorts him either out of the building completely or right up the back out of view and he simply isn't allowed on stage to accept an award. A further complication for the academy is the fairly valid angle that black performers and producers weren't getting adequate recognition where will and Jada literally boycotted in 2016. It would have ironic sting if his awful conduct here led to him being disqualified from an award when he and Jada boycotted due literally not enough people of colour being in contention for awards

16:32 Jesus, talking about white guilt... Jada is as privileged as it gets. She's beautiful, talented, rich, famous, possibly entitled, and now we learned she's insecure about her looks because of her condition, and Will knows it best, that's why he acted the way he acted. Simple as that. You can't just talk about Chris' and Will's behaviors like it was the same level. Chris made a joke. There are good jokes, there are bad jokes, there are hurtful jokes but these are jokes. Seriously, to be honest, it wasn't even in the top of the worst or most offensive ones from the Oscars. It was just meh, and Jeda rolling eyes would be good enough reaction. You can react to a bad joke. Either you suck it up, or joke back, or laugh, or even talk shit back - it's entirely your choice. What you can't do is to smack the shit out of people. Period. There's no defending this.

My theory: Will Smith has been dealing with the public humiliation regarding his marriage for quite some time. He was at least containing any negative reflex to the joke until Jada - the source of that humiliation - gave him that dagger look, and he finally snapped. Chris Rock was just the unwitting catalyst /target when he snapped.

There is no law about "punching up" or "punching down". And it isn't even quantifiable or accurate. So sick of that trope. Jada Smith is one of the richest people in the world. Comedy is funny because it has some truth to it, and is often something we are too scared to say. There is no up down or sideways.

Agree wholehearted with Kareem's sentiment on this matter. As I've stated before Will Smith perpetuates the stereotype of the angry black man that can't control his emotions and causing violence on another black man: NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is expressing his own feelings on the matter, penning a blog post arguing Smith's actions are a “blow to men, women, the entertainment industry and the Black community.” “With a single petulant blow, he advocated violence, diminished women, insulted the entertainment industry, and perpetuated stereotypes about the Black community,” Abdul-Jabbar writes of Smith, echoing the opinion expressed on Monday by Today host Craig Melvin that it was "troubling on so many levels" for men of color.

He should have still gotten the award though for the same reasons that you mention. He shouldn't have been able to accept it at the awards though. He had just complemented Will saying that he should win the award and there is a parallel from the previous joke.

Couple things are going on here. First, growing up in an abusive household brings up unresolved issues. Second, with Jada’s Red table talk she emasculated him and in turn the whole world then emasculated him with meme, videos, and commentary. He blew up like a uncontrollable rocket. Still does not make it right. But, him and Jada need to sit their extremely rich and privileged butts on some therapist couch.

Agreed on all points. The joke was pretty crap, his relationship is far more crap, he seems to think faux chivalry will impress his wife when it will do the opposite probably

The only reason for Will Smith’s actions at the Oscar’s is he knew he’d get away with it. Chris Rock is physically smaller than he. Chris Rock doesn’t have anywhere near as much money or as high a standing in Hollywood as Will Smith. So “Big Willie” went on the stage to assault someone who, on many different levels, couldn’t really fight back. A big guy slapping a not quite as large one.

A lot of comments are pretty stupid. We are learn as kids not to hit others. Just because his wife was pissed about the joke does negate that rule, nor claiming you are defending your family. The two were at an award show where the comedians make jokes often slightly mean jokes on the celebrate audience this is a known fact.

Sorry, but Will overreacted HARD! Chris Rock made a JOKE! Even if it was in poor taste, ESPECIALLY THEN, it was simply that… a joke! It doesn’t warrant being assaulted for. Have you not heard ANY of his standup?? Like come on buddy. Lost quite a bit of respect for Will over this.

If you ask me, I think the true assault was Will Smith winning over Andrew Garfield.

"When they go low, we go high" is supposed to be the mantra.

As a Will Smith fan, I was very disappointed with his behavior. Getting angry is something I understand, especially since it’s making fun of a medical condition that Jada has. I have that same condition. And the best of people get angry sometimes. But physical assault is like 10 steps over the line. Smith lost his mind there and it’s very unlike him to do so since he’s always been someone very mindful of his public image and persona. It ruined the biggest moment of his career and god knows what ramifications it will have now. And I actually do think he was a deserving winner because he was brilliant in King Richard. But he tarnished his win. It definitely was very ugly and I hope Smith apologized to Rock personally because that is simply not done.

Agree!

Best thing to do, ban him from attending for 5 years and ban him from ever presenting an award or winning any kind of life time award. Seems fair enough to then keep the award.

Chris Rock acted professional

PETA would get offended about the chicken joke lol.

Y’all missing a very important point . Jada has a condition that causes her to loose her hair. She had it sense 2018 I believe and wasn’t comfortable in coming out about it . She recently just came out about it . That’s why she rolled her eyess

Men that go bald from stress, anxiety, and pattern baldness have been getting made fun of forever. Where’s the equality?

Remember when they gave Roman Polanski an Oscar and then gave him a standing ovation? When they didn’t allow Hattie McDaniel to sit with fellow nominees? Because racism? Relax with the worst Oscar moment takes

These takes on Will have been ridiculous. The dude has been America's sweet heart for decades but some half ass slap has the pitch forks out? People claim this generation is soft and are more offended about this situation than Chris Rock himself who probably is laughing his ass off about the entire thing.

they're so mad their precious oscar night was ruined by ...a slap? they turn on black actors fast around these parts.

Slapping chris rock is worse than awarding a Roman polanski an award while he is in the mist of a petofylia(misspelled on purpose) scandal and than giving him a standing ovation

good take and good luck to all Comedians in the future making gigs across the country near YOU.

I feel really bad for Chris Rock. Will's behavior was appalling and has consequences for so many people in a bad way. This wasn't a small moment of rage. Like Rob said, this was a long walk and such a despicable thing to do.

Doesn't even matter that it was said by a comedian. Assult is asssult.

I think what pissed Will Smith was not only Jada's reaction but also the reaction of everyone in the theater (Ohhhh!) and Chris Rock endind saying "What? That was a nice one" like he was saying "I could go way worse than that, bro". In that moment he standed up and went to the stage.

Rock's just doing his job. Ricky Gervais for instance would be far more critical.

It really troubles me that Kris (as a self-identified comedian) feels that comedians should be on trial for jokes, and have to explain why they think their jokes are funny. Yeah, that sounds like a real fun time at the comedy club. That sounds like living in a fascist nightmare, and I don't understand why anyone, especially a comedian, would want to live in that world. A comedian is free to say whatever they please, and the audience is free to interpret it however they wish, and if they dislike it, they can leave. That's freedom of expression and freedom of speech. That's non-negotiable. This wishy-washy attitude society is starting to have, where if you are offended enough, you're allowed to do whatever you want, is frightening and cancerous. Ruining the show for everyone because you have a problem with it is so entitled and foolish, and hitting someone is obviously so beyond the realm of acceptable behaviour. The fact that anyone is trying to insinuate that Chris Rock had it coming is too depressing for words. The only thing that this entire incident showed to me is that we clearly do not care enough about free speech/expression as a society, and it's going to bite us in the ass, regardless of how righteous some people think they are.

So now all Jada Pinkett jokes are off limits?? Will Smith is going to be too busy to do anymore acting. He going to be traveling the world slapping folk...getting that pimp hand strong...slapping folks for ever saying a Jada Pinkett joke
