    Will stood up, interrupted a whole show, assaulted a man over a joke, went back to his seat, swore at him, got coddled by his Hollywood friends, won an award, made a speech, and got applauded. I can't even fathom that kind of privilege.

      I know right. Anybody else would have been thrown out and arrested immediately. I'm getting another O.J. feeling here. A rich popular guy doing whatever he wants and nobody does anything. Hell, Will got a standing ovation. After this, I don't want to hear Hollywood saying sh*t about anything political, or talking down to anybody because of their 'pro-right' views. They have proven for all time, just how cowardly they really are.

      Look at the producer putting the blame on Chris for why Will wasn't escorted out. I said before just because Chris didn't want Will hauled out in cuffs by LAPD on live TV doesn't mean the Academy shouldn't have escorted Will out by security. Will Packer as a hired individual doesn't see he's going to be the Academy's scapegoat. They are lucky Chris isn't suing the Academy for perpetuating an unsafe working environment. It had to be stressful to remain there while his assailant was comforted in the mist of a breakdown, given an award and praised like a king with that standing ovation.

    I’m a producer. This producer did not do the right thing. He didn’t need chris’s (the victim and his employee - not a friend in this scenario) permission to arrest Will (a guest - not a friend in this scenario). Chris was not in charge of the Oscar’s - he was. The fact that he let this go based on the employee’s feelings to guest relationship showed he’s a weak producer. He showed the world he don’t know how to handle violent issues properly under his command and he can’t separate friends from work. This isn’t a fight in his home between the two of them - this was a slap in front other guests in a place that was not his, in front of tv that broadcasted over the world, which he do not own. His job was to keep all this employees and all his guests mentally and physically safe. He failed.

    The fact that Chris could recover within a few seconds and crack an amazing joke to ease the tension is incredible. Who knows what would've happened had he decided to just walk off stage instead. What a champ.
    On the other hand, Will Smith thinks he can do damage control by calling up Academy board members to apologise before even getting on the phone and apologising to Chris like a man. Relying on a publicist to release a media apology statement instead of doing it himself. Chris Rock is twice the man he is. Pathetic.

If someone hired by the company (employee) is assaulted by someone, the company’s Human Resource department doesn’t ask the employee if they want action taken against the assailant, they just enforce the company’s no-tolerance for violence, harassment, discrimination, etc. policies. An assault against an employee is an assault against the company. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is a highly profitable company. It nets in the neighborhood of $40M-$50M per year. For the 2022 Academy Awards Show, Chris Rock was hired as a Presenter (employee). An employee of the company was assaulted. There is no reasonable excuse why the company didn’t take swift and decisive action and immediately invoke legal action. Hats off the Chris Rock’s professionalism, but the company let him and all who value justice down. At this point the Academy is equally at fault and paramount to accessory to the assault.

    Do not leave the call up to the one who was assaulted, especially minutes after it occurred. If I was Chris I would have said the same thing. As a victim you're thinking of diluting the embarrassment, making people believe you are fine, making others comfortable. These are classic thoughts. Fine, can't press charges. But that took place in the academy's house, streaming to families around the world, witnessing a blatant act of unprovoked violence. Comedy clubs wouldn't let someone do that and stay because it sets a tone for what's permissible - they should have REMOVED him.

Genuinely a respectable thing to do.

    Let also get this straight. The producers of the event can have anyone removed from the event, and should have. Why they would put the weight of that decision on the shoulders of the victim is beyond comprehension. This would have been the moment to do the right thing by the victim and the remaining audience. Lets not mention, the whole world was/is watching...

      What I understood, though, was that Chris didn't want to press charges. I don't know if he was advocating for him to stay, I think that was the producer's interpretation of it all. That's what I understood. But Will Smith behaved like a tantrumming toddler, he got upset, got physical, and still refused to cooperate by voluntarily leaving. They gave in to him like a little kid. Lost a lot of respect for him.

Smith can still act, be nominated and win oscars, he just won´t be able to vote or nominate films as a member of the Academy...
      2 men go to Las Vegas and have a boxing match, and one kills the other or leaves him with brain damage and nothing happens... all legal... on a film a stuntman gets the punches and can even die... all legal... now if there is a robbery and you are attacked, if you fight for your life, and you hurt or kill the robber in self defense YOU go to jail... all legal.. matthew Broderick killed someone in a traffic accident... Woody Allen had p r n photos of soon yi aged 7 at that time... mark wahberg attacked 2 people with a baseball bat... James franco with minors ... Gary Oldman with domestic violence charges that ended in divorce as well as Jonathan Rhys Meyers, David Hasselhof y Michael Fassbender... did anything happen to any of them???

      You're absolutely right --- that whole scene is TOTAL BS!! Most institutions (public & private) function on a very high degree of willful deceit & self-serving hypocrisy.. The so-called "Academy" is no different.. How can anyone actually JUSTIFY giving someone a "prestigious award" after they've slapped the living daylights out of someone on live national television with millions of people watching?? Are you kidding me? The Academy's TOTAL lack of moral responsibility is just as disgusting as Will Smith's behaviour during that horrible, horrible, moment.. Another shining example of the continual social & moral decline that continues to plague America..

    I truly believe that the reason Chris was so calm and “collected” was that he was still in shock. He shouldn’t have even been asked to make the decision to have him arrested or not. You can still be in shock days later, it wasn’t his responsibility to decide what should happen because he wasn’t in the correct head space to make decisions and of course he would want to have everything continue smoothly. But the fact that he was able to be assaulted on stage and no one come to help or stop it, they had a responsibility to HIM to remove him immediately. The security of the facility should have removed him right then and there and then the police could have figured out what to do. But to put that on to Chris isn’t fair or right.
    Let me give an example that is very different.. but could relate to his mindset. I knew a girl in high school that was assaulted by the star football player of our school. Our football team was about to go to the championship. She requested that he not be expelled because at the time, she hadn’t processed what happened and she knew people would be angry and blame her if he were expelled and unable to play in the championship. Even though it would obviously not be her fault, she wanted to brush it off because he was well liked by everyone. This should have never been her responsibility to decide what happened to him, he should have been removed because it’s the right thing to do. And I’m sure now years later she wishes she wouldn’t have said he could stay but that’s because she’s had time to process it.
    I think Chris kind of felt the same way in the moment, like no no just continue the show it’s fine.. don’t kick him out etc. because he knew many people in the audience and the world would have blamed him for that. But it shouldn’t have even been an option for him to have to consider.

    In a few months, perhaps in August, Will Smith does a big interview where he tearfully says he wasn't himself and is now in therapy. After that he directs a movie about women in the Navy Seals and writes a book called "Vessel of Love" (with co-author Vladimir P.). After all, the Smith family motto is "That's how we do it."

      Yes they do need to ask the victim because there is no point in arresting him if it's just going to be dropped afterwards. If the victim won't testify then there is no case. So then resources are being wasted. Paperwork, time, he would be out on his own recognizance in an hour.
