Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.
He appeared to reply: “Don’t miss Trump next time.”
Gass also split with his agent following the incident.
Tbf, the odds of getting shot in America are still pretty low too, it’s about 12k/350mil/yr, whatever the math is on that. It is possible though however unlikely, so maybe that answers your “targets on their back while touring aus blah blah gun control” question. Evidentially, it is indeed possible to be shotbin Australia.
Low, in absolute terms. Relatively, its incredibly high.
Like 40 times higher. As I mentioned, it is possible they could be hit by a meteor, but even more unlikely. By your logic, the realaroce risk is nor important, so we could just as easily say that’s the reason for the cancelation.
Nobody said it was impossible to get shot in Australia. It just doesn’t make sense in context to be a reason to cancel shows in Australia.
Well the main difference is I don’t think it’s possible for meteors to target famous people for political reasons, where it is entirely possible for humans of any nationality to do so, and since there are guns and people do get shot in aus, the chance is greater than 0%, and seemingly this was enough for JB.
Frankly if you know it’s possible why feign incredulity?
