There are idiots who don't see their own behavior as harassment. Hitting was taking it too far, yet I can understand the frustration that led to it. It happened at 10:30pm according to the account, and a tired fighter is not going to be a patient fighter.

I think Mike should have to write a letter of apology.

"I'm sorry I did not hit you harder."

I wonder if they’ll ban him from The Oscars.
He deserves to catch a break.

Helpful lesson in boundaries. I wish the best for Tyson.

Mr. Tyson expresses himself with his fists.
He is an artist.
A thing of beauty.

I saw that earlier. What kind of idiot do you have to be to harass a professional fighter who is known for biting a guy's ear off? I mean, really. It should be legal for Mike to kick his ass.

Wait, so Tyson beating a guy bloody and raw because he was annoying him is okay, but Smith simply slapping Chris Rock for insulting his wife is too far? I think there’s an equivalency miscalculation…

Well Chris Rock told a joke, the guy on the plane was constantly bothering or taunting Tysons directly behind his head. Then again, my initial reaction to the Oscars was I didn't blame Smith for defending his wife after a joke about her health.

No, Chris Rock Insulted his wife. That’s not a joke and it’s a problem with our society that we think it is.

A joke can also be an insult. I bet Phibes has a witty comment to add here about most comedy being insulting to him.

Oh, come off it. He made a joke about her hair. People make jokes about me losing my hair all the freaking time. If these dickheads didn't think they were God's freaking gift to humanity maybe they'd learn to take a joke, even when they didn't find it particularly funny.
Ricky Gervais said he wouldn't have made the joke about her hair. He'd have made it about her boyfriend.
And if Will Smith was surprised that Chris Rock made a joke about his family during the Oscar's speech, then he's dumber than he looks.

I suppose an insult is in the eye of the beholder, but a comparison can be clever and funny while being flattering. I was listening to a conversation with Ricky Gervais recently and I agree with his take that the comparison was not intended to be insulting. Demi Moore was considered beautiful and fierce with that hair in that movie.

Clearly, Will Smith has some issues.
That was a pretty mild joke. I'm pretty sure there was more going on in Will Smith's head than "I must defend my wife against this vile calumny!"

I think it was mostly that he had to defend himself from his wife.

Yeah, we all saw what happened. He laughed, got the evil eye from psycho-queen, and then suddenly decided to be outraged.

Nope. I thought that was OK too. I understand why he did it.
