    You'd be a brave man (or woman) to step to Whoopi.

    Will Smith broke down when he attacked Chris Rock - I would suggest that the tears were part of the recognition that he'd done something wrong and partly due to the adrenalin wearing off. He lost control, fcked up and was beginning to realise that.

    Btw, my wife would murder me if I did something as stupid as Will Smith did.

    He makes his name with gutter comedy generally doesn't he? Attacking and diminishing others for a cheap laugh always seems a bit easy as well as tasteless. Compare with someone like the late Sean Lock who could be sharp an acerbic, but clever. Git like when Gervais hosts, all it is is digs and ugly jokes on people. People lap it up because people are cruel.

    I do feel bad for Will Smith, he clearly loves his wife very much, but she seemed to have gaslighted him in to accepting an open marriage.

    His Oscar acceptance speech looked like he was having a mental breakdown.

    It almost felt like he hit Rock to prove to the world he is still a man. Rather than a mentally broken pussy whipped cuckold.

    You are aware that the Oscars recognise achievements in the film industry, don't you?

    Ah well at least we now know which part of the Bible is redundant for you:

    What is the meaning of Matthew 5 39?
    This is the second verse of the antithesis on the command: "eye for an eye". In one of the most famous verses in the New Testament, Jesus here rejects revenge and retaliation, instead telling his followers to turn the other cheek.
    The bit in the bible about your views being unimportant is certainly not redundant. You and your little vendetta.

    He should have replied with a cutting remark not an upper cut.

    Rock is a bit of an animal with people's feelings and as warty said he was out of order attacking her illness.
