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.
My “argument” was “they totally could get shot outside the US.”
Yes, gun control is not no guns.
Seems you agree that it is possible to be shot outside the US. Your argument isn’t holding water.
Its possible to be hit by a meteorite. We were talking risk, not possibility. At least I was. The chance of being shot for anyone in Australia is extremely low. The chance of being shot is high in America, relative to most other countries and all other developed countries. Its not even close.
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.
