Violence is unacceptable

Immaculately dressed in a three-piece dapper suit and a white shirt, Will looked every inch the much-loved debonair celebrity. In an event that was telecast live and held the world spellbound, millions failed to parse what was going on as they beheld Will aggressively prancing towards Chris Rock and unleashing a powerful slap that could have easily sent Goliath teetering.

Though it is a fact that violence normally begets violence, and no self-respecting man would passively watch another man humiliate his wife, the visibly stunned Chris stuck to the moral high ground and restrained himself from responding in kind. Once he had performed the deed to his satisfaction, Will turned around, flashed a subtle, almost imperceptible smile, and walked back to his front-row seat, from which he shouted sulphurous expletives spewed from his foul orifice. Will willingly and recklessly disrupted a high-profile ceremony.
