#DavidCarrollWasRight/ Oscar Night Smackdown

When I heard about the fiasco this morning between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the Oscar Awards last night, late YouTuber David Carroll came to mind immediately. I thought to myself that he would have a ball with this because it lines up with things he said in his commentary concerning “Black” men. I won’t go too much into his commentary because I will be all night writing this post, however, I will pinpoint some of his analysis to go with the breakdown of what happened last night.

Before I begin, for those of you who don’t know what went down last night, Chris Rock made a joke towards Jada Pinkett-Smith, the wife of Will Smith. The joke was that she could be casted as G.I. Jane if they were to make a sequel, in reference to Jada’s shorn hair. Come to find out she’s suffering from a condition (alopecia) that causes hair loss, which I had no idea. Some women go through these phases where they shave their heads, so initially I thought that was a style she was sporting.

Will, who appeared to be laughing was apparently just laughing it off. He then walked on stage and slapped the taste of Chris Rock’s mouth, sat down and said: “Keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth.” Looking at it from another angle, this also reminds me of when I say some things are disrespectful, regardless of the intent, even if you say it jokingly.

I saw where someone was hoping that this was staged, and judging from Chris Rock’s position when Will walked up there, and reaction after Will slapped him — more on that later — I can understand why one would wonder or at least hope that it was staged, but knowing Negroes like I do, especially when it’s punani involved, I doubt that seriously.

Although some would view this as commendable, I thought this was troubling, and this is where I make my David Carroll references. He often said in his videos that “Black” men are dumb — well, “Black” people in general, but mainly “Black” men. As much I wanted to disagree with him on that, I see the things these Negroes do, and it’s clear that for the most part, he was right.

You know, if his wife was what they call a “ride or die,” someone who was faithful and supportive of him, etc., I would find what he did understandable, although he could’ve dealt with Chris Rock (physically or verbally) after the show, however, at least I could say she was worthy of his reaction to the joke — which I will agree was insensitive after I learned about her condition — but this woman? Are you serious?

Over the past few years, this woman, in my opinion, has publicly humiliated, emasculated, and castrated him, and first of all, he’s still married to her. Secondly, despite the jacked up way she’s treated him, he still calls himself defending her honor.

This brings me back to David Carroll. Often, he would mention that the majority of these Negro women don’t give a fuck about Negro men, stating that not only is she not your team, but she was never on your team. Yet, these Negro men will still find themselves defending and protecting the honor of someone who doesn’t give a fuck about them — in this case, Will Smith.

Another thing David pointed out was a lot of “Black” women applaud and cheer on this type of buffoonery from “Black” men, as evidenced with this one quoted as saying “It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”

Another thing I found disturbing was why Chris Rock didn’t try to defend himself. He stood his goofy ass up there and said, “Oh lord, Will Smith just slapped the mess out of me.” Not a direct quote, but that’s pretty much what he said. Once you put your hands on somebody, male or female, you’re fair game, and that’s something I will mention when I address the “A man should not put his hands on a woman under no circumstances” nonsense. Actually, he could press charges if he wanted to because technically, that was assault. He assaulted him in front of millions…and millions of people.

I also wondered if Steve Harvey or D.L. Hughley would’ve made that joke, would Will have walked up there and did what he did? I’m sure he probably would’ve verbally addressed them, but I don’t think he would’ve walked on stage and slapped them — not without a fight, anyway.

He later apologized to Chris Rock and the audience, basically quoting Deborah Cox — in reference to her 1999 hit, Nobody’s Supposed to be Here — by saying, “Love can make you do some crazy things.” How does that work when, from what I can see, you don’t get that love back?

Another thing it reminded me of is watching people and being aware of your surroundings. No one has absolute awareness but being alert as you possibly can. Not being paranoid, but being aware, alert, and ready for any and everything because you never know when someone will try to pull a Will Smith.
