While There may be power in forgiveness, there is even more power in lobbing a Molotov cocktail through someone's dining room window.
Jim NortonApologies; our cultural obsession with them isn't about actually being offended, or simply needing to hear, โI'm sorry.โ It's not really about right or wrong. It's about wanting to throw a rock in the dark and hear something break.
Jim NortonI appreciate that the New York Daily News will show dead bodies but blur the cover of a French parody magazine. Just out of respect, right guys?
Jim NortonIt just seems like right now weโre in a place where people are being witch-hunted for expressing an opinion. Even if itโs a lousy opinion or a shitty opinion, and comics I donโt think can ever fall into the trap of any groups that want to censor what a person says or thinks or punish a person for expressing what they think. Anything you say about a social issue is going to offend half the country. I donโt care how nicely you say it, I donโt care how well you construct the joke, simply by stating the opinion, you are for something and anti something else.
