Dave Chappelle: 2nd Amendment 'Is Just in Case the First Doesn't Work Out'

The most dangerous comedian in America is clearly a big fan of the Constitution.

This is gonna piss off the liberals.

Dave Chappelle recently won the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center in D.C. and his acceptance speech contradicted everything the Democrats have recently told us about free speech and gun rights.

Eric Boehm reports:

In what he said was an unscripted acceptance speech on Sunday night, comedian Dave Chappelle continued his recent campaign against cancel culture—while openly defying a smoking ban and defending the right to bear arms too.
Chappelle was fêted on Sunday night in Washington, D.C., as this year's recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, a lifetime achievement award bestowed annually by the Kennedy Center. Known for his irreverent and boundary-pushing sketch comedy show and standup routines, Chappelle has never shied away from an opportunity to eviscerate political correctness for laughs. Sunday's event was no different, according to media reports.

Is this guy awesome or what?!

But wait, it gets better!

"It's the best part of the First Amendment to me that I'm able to express myself this way and make a viable living doing it," Chappelle told NPR prior to going on stage Sunday night.
On stage, he reportedly lit up a cigarette—"What are they gonna do? Kick me out before I get the prize?" he said, according to USA Today—and took aim at the same woke scolds who were targets during his recent Netflix standup special. He faced backlash for joking about, among other things, LGBTQ people (whom Chappelle referred to as "the alphabet people"), Michael Jackson's accusers, and people who dig through old tweets in an effort to hurt comedians' lives and careers over off-color jokes.
