Comedian Kevin Hart told The Breakfast Club on Tuesday that he totally gets why controversial comic Tony Hinchcliffe told a questionable George Floyd joke during the live Roast of Kevin Hart on Netflix that has since received major backlash.Hinchcliffe, of Kill Tony podcast fame, said during his set, “The Black community is so proud of you right now. George Floyd is looking up at us all, laughing so hard he can’t breathe.”Floyd was a Black man who was killed by white police officers in Minneapolis who knelt on his back and neck until he suffocated. Floyd’s last words were, “I can’t breathe.”
To think, Hart's roast had a Charlie Kirk joke, some Jewish jokes, white comedians going at each other and they even ripped on Kevin's dead parents. But leave it to the usual race-baiters to pretend like they've never seen a comedy roast before and get all bent out of shape over a George Floyd joke. It's a shame that Kevb even has to defend himself. But good for him to stand on business, not apologize and make it clear that he did nothing wrong.
