man, I still can't believe Amy Schumer said that joke out loud to other people. -- (edited)

the slap really upset me...but here's a joke about someone recently shot to death by a famous actor

Responses:

It really does appear that Baldwin is getting away with it though. -- nm - Qale Apr 5, 07:53 11
- What, exactly, is there for him to “get away with”? It was a tragic accident. -- nm - znufrii Apr 5, 07:55 10
  - There was a lot of evidence from what I understand of set negligence. Surely there should be some kind of responsibility/blame/accountability assigned -- nm - Qale Apr 5, 08:05 9
    - There will be when the civil suits get settled. That won't likely happen until the full investigation is complete. - Will Hunting Apr 5, 08:42
    - yes - but not to him as an actor. Actors aren't the ones in charge of safety. You wouldn't say an actor that was killed in a stunt set up by someone else committed suicide. Baldwin didn't murder anyone. -- nm* - Andie Apr 5, 08:33 1
      - I admit I've watched way too much L&O so was kind of thinking there'd be some kind of manslaughter case drawn up. Plea deal. End credits. -- nm - Qale Apr 5, 08:37
    - He isn't guilty of anything from pulling the trigger, IMO. But as a producer, yes, a bit of responsibility there. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 5, 08:12 1
      - That’s ultimately between him and his insurers, I’m guessing. - znufrii Apr 5, 08:41
    - agreed -- nm - mud Apr 5, 08:07 3
      - I'm not saying he should go to jail. But I see where the joke was germinated as the comparative reactions have been pretty huge. - Qale Apr 5, 08:11 2
        
        the only thing that's funny about her is her thinking that after stinking up the night of the show it was a good idea to say .. - mud Apr 5, 08:15 1
        
        I honestly thought they hired that trio to host was to troll people. -- nm - Qale Apr 5, 08:38
If you’re going to make that type of joke, you better have it nailed down and have the thickest skin about other stuff - Will Hunting Apr 5, 07:42
I am in the camp of "anything can be a joke" ... but there's some subjects where it had better be the funniest fucking joke ever - Reagen Apr 5, 07:38
yeah, that was a joke that should never have been said in public. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 07:26 2
- Devil's advocate in me wants to suggest that a comedy club isn't truly public as it has gated entry. Nightclubs like to use that same idea... - Qale Apr 5, 08:08 1
  - did it get posted on the internet because people heard it in a setting that really anyone could go to? That's public. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 08:34
It wasn't funny and the facts were wrong. I've never seen a meta-anti-joke before, but maybe it's the first. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 5, 07:21
