Tenacious D thing a real dick move from Jack Black imo, just throwing your bandmate to the wolves. Gig here also got last-minute cancelled and people ended up out of pocket etc.
It should be pointed out that Ralph Babet is a complete lunatic from a fringe party (basically our Trump party, I’d say, Senator Babet is their only MP) and Sandilands is a shock jock for whom controversy is a meal ticket. The general reaction here has been bemusement.
There were initial reports the secret service said he was injured by a shard of glass. These came from an unnamed source via TMZ and I haven’t seen any corroboration. There’s also a picture of a prompter that might show a damaged corner. People also say his ear would have been torn off by a bullet but I’d like to see a mythbusters on that.
Right. They do show him crawling forward, though. And all the witness accounts say he was moving forward. So I don’t think there’s any chance he climbed the AC unit on the front of the building. And I don’t see any other AC units that make sense, although it could be hidden somewhere.
Cool, good find. Agreed it looks precarious, but not impossible. There’s definitely something on top of it in the skynews video.
If the counter snipers behind Trump were the ones that got the kid that’s even more impressive. The had to turn 45 degrees and pick up the target through tree cover it looks like.
The decision to end the Tenacious tour seems not unreasonable to me. If your band is up there calling for political violence it’s not hard to see where that might lead.
Which would be true if they were calling for political violence, they weren’t, they made a joke that pissed off some conservatives. Fucking snowflakes can’t take a joke.
Other people’s unreasonable or violent behaviors dont justify responding in kind. At least not in the way I want to engage with the world. … but yeah i agree they shouldnt be surprised
