CROWD GOES TO WAR OVER PALESTINE

My friend booked me to headline at a wealthy, members-only secret club in San Francisco. Out of respect for him, I couldn’t turn it in to a total sh** show, I had to do my job. But I also had to speak my mind, and well...let’s just say those two things were in conflict, until they weren’t.

[@erinmac4750]

​@@HaleyMary That's pretty funny. Fwiw I laughed. 😸 Too many people need to get over themselves. We need to be able to deal with tough topics in comedy, and the arts for that matter. It's a way to deal with, process, and get insight into situations, hopefully building empathy and releasing tension. I keep thinking of Mel Brooks, one of my all time favorites. I'm guessing that the PC police and the maga crew would be in a competition if he was doing some of his stuff today. Or, I think about In Living Color. Yeah, they used a lot of uncomfortable stereotypes, but it wasn't out of hate, and often the characters made you reflect on why those stereotypes existed. Again, I'm guessing that the two extremes of posturing would be raising a ruckus over some of their work. BTW are you hitting the Sacramento area anytime? I love stand-up.

That was a very good analysis Always as a youngester was afraid of being a radical myself as a devouted Muslim , then the more i grewup n reading into Islam the more i realised that knowing the truth (from my point of view) n adhering to it doesn't make the Other in the wrong but infact the more devouted Muslims were in their history the more they embraced others opinions n civilisations without compromising their own n that was really genius ; And I'm not speaking about "takkia" or whatever bs some haters claim , that was in the peak of the Islamic civilisations. We don't think that we are superior to nonmuslims ; we feel blessed to be Muslims n always afraid for this to be taken away, because it can, we don't think that only we can enter the Gardens n we don't think that all other people should be Muslims or forced to be because God told us that he did create us as diverses n we should get to know n learn about each others.

When will all this ignorance, misunderstanding and hatred end? In my worst nightmares it will never end, but I hope I'm wrong. I hope love and justice will eventually prevail. Remember itt is within our possibilities.

Completely dumbfounded by how well you handled that!!! Bless you!!

[@MohammedL]

Respect ... no other word. Its not easy to bring back the crowd with crazy hecklers like that!

[@carloa2500]

Free free Palestine 🇵🇸

Total missed opportunity when you were pointing out that the majority of the crowd thought you were funny. Haha. I would have said something along the lines of, “Do you see how a majority could want something, and it not be respected due to a minority who decide to occupy the land the way you’re occupying my show?” Haha. But less wordy. Hahaha

[@hatajusic3568]

Bravo Sammy!! Let the haters hate, never keep talking about Palestine 🇵🇸❤️🫶🏼🇵🇸❤️🫶🏼

Sammy: hats down to you. You are just beyond bravery to stand up against bigotry in the most talented demonstration of resilience and courageously gain the respect of every true American 🫡. The real America to which it stands is proud of you for standing up to your convictions.

You are so brave. First, you had a fan in me. Now you have a worshipper.
