He lied and said he was shocked about it but at the show he laughed and carried on. Looks like he canceled himself anyway.

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." In a statement on Instagram, external, Black said he was "blindsided" by the comment.His exact words after Kyle said it were 'Thank you'. Yeah, spoken to the person giving the cake.

It sounds better because it wasn't him who said it and he's distanced himself from the extremely bad taste joke. After saying “Thank you”, though. To the person giving the cake.

Comedians just aren't allowed to tell jokes any more.

Comedians just aren't allowed to tell jokes any more. Sometimes a bit of self censorship is advisable.

I never said he should be cancelled at all. I've been paying attention to the MSM enough for the past few years to fully expect left wingers to think shooting Trump would be a courageous act of virtue. He could have ignored or cheered what Kyle said and it wouldn't have been an issue or surprise to most folks.

Well of course people we dislike will usually do the wrong thing for the wrong reason and of course the other side usually have a herd mentality and can't think for themselves.
