Just watched the whole video and probably one of the worst things I’ve seen in a while.... basically condoning and rationalizing police officers all over the US being murdered. It has already been viewed millions of times and if any of those viewers have thought about murdering a police officer this let them know that it’s ok. Innocent people will be killed because of what he said on this video.

It just comes down to facts vs feelings
One side has stories about how they feel
The other side presenting facts that are largely ignored and classified as racist.
Your side on this issue will depend on what you choose to value. Facts or feelings?

Chappelle blasts bullshite no matter who is propagating it. Sometimes your beliefs may be in the line of fire, sometimes not - but you can be pretty sure that Dave's going to have a way to offend EVERYBODY but make them laugh regardless, which is what makes him so great. I haven't seen it yet but just relax and watch the GOAT be the GOAT.
frick, format your long posts better. Learn how to use a paragraph, please.

At the end of the show, he says if this peaceful protest doesn't work out, then it's the last peaceful one and the next will be shooting.

Civilian on civilian murder is obviously shitty, but 100% guaranteed if caught they will face consequences. Cops can and frequently do get away with murder. Not really hard math.

Well yea.
What do you think is going to happen after every celebrity and Fortune 500 company validate a FALSE NARRATIVE?
A false narrative by definition can’t be fixed. So it’s going to look like the problem, which doesn’t exist (cops killing black people), isn’t getting fixed because of racism.
That’s when the shooting starts
Should have ended this false narrative a long time ago.

You are an odd one to be talking about facts, you posted a made-up fake story and never bothered to correct it. You don't care about facts at all.

The tree of liberty blah blah blah, insinuating violence may be needed to accomplish ones desired political ends is very common on both sides of the aisles these days

I don’t guess we did, because after every person was killed he gave examples of innocent police officers being murdered. He followed it up at the very end with saying if something doesn’t happen, it should lead to more. Did anybody watch the video, good grief.

Let's control the variables and see if you have a point.
Black person killed by black citizen...national outrage? No.
Black person killed by black cop...national outrage? No.
Black person killed by white citizen...national outrage? Maybe.
Black person killed by white cop...national outrage? Yes.

Do you think he is wrong?
IF another EGREGIOUS death like the Floyd death happens they may mobilize, he set it up by telling the stories of a California shooter and the Dallas and BR police shooters. All 3 were cops and all 3 had military backgrounds.
In ZERO way do I condone it and I don't believe he did either. It was more of an I don;t condone but understand message.
The man is Richard Pryor 2.0. And appears to only smoke cigarettes like a train and weed, but is not free basing cocaine, We should have him around for a while longer.

I'd say he does.
In so far as it went, yes, it was common sense. He tells a partial story, selecting facts that paint a vivid picture that supports his point of view. Example:
He goes through a litany of law enforcement killings (perhaps murders) of black men. It makes it seem as though black men are being hunted for being black. What he doesn't supply is two similar litanies of white men being killed by law enforcement (these are more numerous) or white people being murdered by black people (these are far more numerous).
The show is compelling because Dave Chappelle is a marvelous entertainer. He has some valid points. If you believe, as I do, that the headwinds of racism are about the third most important factor holding black people back, then you'll have to suspend that skepticism when you watch this. It's not comedy, but it's very good.

He said personally stop watching his stuff...not try to ruin the guys life and livelihood. If you can’t understand the difference that’s in you.

Supporting people’s right to protest isn’t supporting rioting and looting. They are different things.
He closed his show with a threat, and it could be viewed as an endorsement, of gun violence in support of the riots.

He was attacked because he was stalking Martin.
Martin was profiled by Zimmerman to be a likely thug. Zimmerman was correct. What Zimmerman was doing was legal. Martin broke the law when he attacked. Zimmerman clearly shot him in self defense.
Subsequently disclosed facts about Zimmerman show him to be crappy individual, just as the facts show Martin to be a crappy individual.

Because there was a man on top of him beating him.
