John Oliver utilized his position section on Sunday’s Recently Tonight to refer to the “hard crackdown” on university student in the USA resisting the Israel-Hamas battle.
He presented clips coming from an online Fox News document at Columbia Educational institution in Nyc.
“Police swarmed campuses in numbers so extreme; this student summed it up pretty well,” he pointed out.
The clip started along with a reporter talking to a trainee activist,“What do you think about the NYPD moving in?”
Answered the trainee:“It’s insane. We have a right to protest. We have a right. Look at that. That’s fucking crazy.”
The reporter therefore inquired:“What are you gonna do if you get arrested?”
The trainee responded:“I can’t really do much.”
The reporter mashed on:“Will you go with the police if they make an arrest?”
Shruged off the trainee:“I guess so.”
Reduce to Oliver:“Did that reporter just ask, ‘Are you going to go with the police if they arrest you?’ Kudos to that student for giving the calmest possible answer to what might be the dumbest question ever asked on TV. ‘If the guys with guns put you in handcuffs and drag you to the jail, will you go with them?’ ‘Yeah, I guess so.’”
He proceeded:“Also thoughts and prayers to the loved ones of the one boomer who was killed by hearing that student say ‘fuck’ on Fox News. Somewhere, a family’s writing [his] obituary. ‘Paul John Roberts passed away in his home when his eyeballs, heart and butthole exploded. At the same time, he’s survived by his wife and three adult children, who no longer speak to him.’”
By the way, Sunday evening’s incident denoted the 300th payment of Recently Tonight. The series kept in mind the landmark along with a photo of a pie covered along with candlesticks reviewing “300” by the end of the position credit histories.
