It the wimpy way. If he had of punched Donnie, at least I may have had a a tinny, tiny bit of respect for him.

I will say this, Will Smith will have to face whatever consequences come from this, but, I understand why he did what he did and if I were his wife, I would appreciate him more from it.

I have said many times that I live under a roof where the two Americas play out their journey. And I see something that truly surprises me. There are fraternities out there that inspire some real cruelty among its members. They call it pranking. And some frat boys grow up with a mean streak, while others learn to laugh off the abuses and, sometimes, offensive jokes. But when that shit encroaches into the household and a man doesn't know where to draw the line to protect their family, sorry.

Will Smith got up to slap Chris Rock in the face because he knew he had seconds before Jada did it, instead.

Chris Rock, ridicule sometimes is very effective... that punch reminded me of the way things were
straightened out in the 50's... We have come a long way.
