If he's self aware to realize that his anger sometimes causes some serious things, then that's when you make sure you don't put yourself in situations where it could be set off, and you take your butt to therapy or practice anger management techniques. I have mental health issues. I do a plethora of things to make sure that either A: I won't be in situations that can cause problems (mainly for me, as my issues don't affect most other people, but could if I was pushed enough) or B: If I can't avoid/change those situations, I constantly practice different mitigation tactics so that it doesn't spiral should something trigger one of my issues. I also practice self-awareness and mental check in's to see how I'm doing, like if I'm suddenly tired even though I've slept enough, that's a sign that something isn't regulating well or I'm running out of energy. Now, I think society should be more aware and also give a lot better options for people with mental health issues, anything from personality disorders or emotional dysregulation, but it is up to someone else to take those tools and steps to mitigate whatever they deal with.

While you may have the best intentions at heart, it would be very pertinent to understand that people who fly off the handle like this are often aggressive normally. When someone immediately makes a threat like this, it’s better to simply let that person be handled by the police and then move on. You shouldn’t try to placate unstable people. They are unstable for a reason. If they could easily see sense, they wouldn’t be openly threatening you on social media.

​@@MrTheQuestioner In my experience, if you come across someone that you know shouldn't have kids, they will have more than the average household.

[@BabyandToddlerHarmoniousHaven]

who hates Drew? Honestly. Such a likeable man and his wife is a gem!!! So glad it didn't escalate past that. And with this video up, maybe the young man now has new perspective on life, drops the drugs and selling drugs and takes his family to see drew and get through all of the jokes. I wish I could interact with you guys like that and have brunch lol. I just cant see myself going to that length to do it. Love from Africa.

[@dvonart]

People hate on him for the dumbest shit . Someone was offended that he didn't give his "fans" updates on his dogs passing and removed the videos. That's no one's business except drews

[@courtnirose516]

17:19 SUPER icky is more like it!! This whole situation! And for the record, your joke was spot on and perfect!!

[@Crismodin]

That guy is scary, like others have said, narcissist, stay away from him - block him - keep him away from you.

[@ghostsuru8429]

I hope the police tag this guy as "overly aggressive." Or blacklisted in the books. This way, if he shows up again in another confrontation, they know what he's about.

[@nickf2657]

Not just a narcissist...he's legitimately dangerous.

[@bullmooseathletics]

My fiancée took me to one of your shows at the Helium in Indy last year. It was awesome! You told the joke that was in this video and yeah, it killed. This guy's motivation FROM THE BEGINNING was finding a way to make himself famous. The ice in the cup was a red herring and was just his date's way of expressing her discomfort at him filming the whole time. Oh and at the end of the show, we got to share some experiences with you, since I have ADHD and she has deal with my problems lol.

[@Bastikovski99]

They are stupid and self-obsessed

[@janog.5170]

some people are not intelligent enough to understand humour. Especially those who had 0 problems in life. Why? Because humour origins comes from suffering. It's a tool we started to use to transfer something tragic into something funny, to make our lifes easier. This guy everyone can tell was prolly a school bully, and used to intimidate or threaten others to impress girls. If i was policeman i would take a closer look at his life, because 60% he done some pretty shady stuff

[@lawlietriver8869]

It seems pretty obvious from the information given that this dude was simply using your fame to grift. He never took offense, his only motive was money and self promotion. If he was white he would simply have found a different angle and actively chosen to be "offended" by something different.

[@janog.5170]

I hope this guy who made threats reads the comment section and realise how everyone thinks he is pathethic and subhuman af because of his behavior.

[@user-fc5zj6mh2c]

Your wife is diplomatic, as a wife I'd have handled that dude very differently. Good for her for not being like me.

[@kiwiguy72]

It was pretty clear right from his first messages that he wasn't in his right mind, that amount of aggression, anger and threats of violence is not a normal reaction to a misunderstanding. Your wife is truly amazing in the way that she de-escaslated by making a phone call to him, personally, I would have been way too scared to engage further.

[@carolineben-ari2798]

For real. She was an absolute rockstar.

[@sadespain01]

It is a normal response to severe trauma though. That's what I was thinking before he mentioned drugs.

[@dannyboy4929]

The only thing she did wrong was try to set up brunch. He was just threatening to take drews life, so she sets up brunch judt bcuz he was calm on the phone. So, they go to brunch and bam dude beats drew to a bloody pulp or kills him... i mean jeez smh, maybe its bcuz i grew up in Detroit and i know lifes not all rainbows and roses, and i know when ppl are behaving like this they can easily end your life just bcuz they were simply annoyed...

[@sara.3042]

@@dannyboy4929 For real. Drew's wife looks like the type of woman I'd be friends with because she seems awesome! Still, I think it is unwise to try to meet up with someone who is that unhinged with anger, making threats, etc. Call me paranoid, but no way in hell would I be calling, speaking with, or meeting up with that guy when he clearly has mental health and drug issues. Hell no!

[@dannyboy4929]

@@sara.3042 100% When I was 19 I had an actual friend who thought I was lying to him about taking his cigarette, he wasn't no where near this unhinged... he turned around and fuckn stabbed me in the stomach. Like a year later a grown man was stealing CANDY BARS in a gas station, I had a friend that simply said "aw man you shouldn't be stealing" the guy pulled out a razor blade and slit my friends throat, killed him. That's why I was in absolute aw at the ignorance from her to set up brunch with the very man who is threatening to kill her husband. Like tbh I think she seems cool and funny as hell, but I feel like she is just ignorant to the real world dangers. (When I use the word ignorant it's not aninsult, i use it exactly how its defined lol i love drews wife, she's not an ignorant person, just ignorant to this specific thing)

​@@heyaerichow is this relevant to anything?

[@veggiesarefruits]

I'm sure he's had several "talks" with law enforcement, given that he's shouted threats of violence in public, recorded himself inciting violence and posted it online, attempted to extort someone in writing, and admitted to consuming and selling drugs over the phone. Not the smartest criminal, although most criminals tend to be pretty stupid.

[@marieharman3864]

My husband and I were at a later show that same weekend and heard the joke in question. My husband (who is a police officer) and I both thought it was a great joke. We laughed so hard. It was not a racist joke. If anything, it was making fun of the police. Keep up the great work, Drew, and we hope to see you back in Indy soon!

[@ghostsuru8429]

Drew's been getting more and more people who seem confused about the target of the joke he makes. Comedy might very well be dead in 2024.

[@ivyhearst3554]

I understand you're trying to be supportive, but I hope you understand that saying a police officer found a police brutality joke funny is not the most helpful.

[@marieharman3864]

​@@ivyhearst3554did you hear the entire joke, or are you going based on what little was posted here? Were you there in the audience hearing it first hand? It's not anyone's place to judge what someone else finds funny. It's healthy to laugh at yourself and the chaotic world we live in. Not all police are corrupt, and those who aren't don't like those who are any more than anyone else. Drew also made jokes about people who use wheelchairs. I'm a wheelchair user, so does that mean I shouldn't laugh at him making fun of my disability? The disability jokes were also hilarious and true, so yes, I laughed at those too! Lighten up and learn to laugh a little. It's called comedy for a reason. It's a joke!

WTF.... the joke is actually the opposite to racist. I could totally see a black comedian doing this joke. Im pretty sure he went to the show expecting to find something he could use to make a feud and gain views. Now, police has a recorded confession of him using AND SELLING illegal drugs, and also a confession of extortion. I really hope they went after this guy.
