Dave Chappelle ‘upset’ armed attacker isn’t facing felony charge: lawyer

NYP– Dave Chappelle is “upset” his alleged armed attacker wasn’t hit with a felony charge after attacking him while holding a weapon on-stage at the Hollywood Bowl, his lawyer told The Post on Friday.

“It’s a travesty of justice that DA [George] Gascòn is refusing to prosecute this case as a felony,” the comic’s attorney Gabriel Colwell said. “The City Attorney, who filed the case, is doing his job but DA Gascón should also do his job and charge this as a felony.”

The 48-year-old comedian’s lawyer called on the DA to reconsider the charges, shortly after Isaiah Lee, 23, pleaded not guilty to four misdemeanor counts over the caught-on-camera attack on Chappelle during his Tuesday show.

“This was a violent assault that was perpetrated on an unsuspecting entertainer while he was giving a show in front of  thousands of people at the historic Hollywood Bowl,” Colwell, a partner at Squire Patton Boggs, said.

“The idea that [Lee] had a deadly weapon on him — one that was a replica of a handgun that had a knife — that is a violent assault.” read more

  1. On the other hand, letting his well known and easily identifiable attacker loose on the streets might wind up being it’s own solution.

  2. C’mon Dave, it’s California. You know that black criminal liberal fags get special treatment under the law. That guy qualifies as a social victim. BLM bro.

  3. Justice is determined by who wins the Intersectionality Derby in shitholes where the population prefers to be ruled rather than represented. You should know that Dave.

    …you think YOU’RE upset, think of all the people who got beaten, raped, and killed in last year’s Government sanctioned brownshirt riots, their cities and businesses burnt and their property destroyed RIGHT IN FRONT OF POLICE who were told to stand down so their picked pillagers could pillage and never, ever be brought to earthly justice.

    ONE felony getting ignored by a Democrat prosecutor?

    *scoff*

    They ignore ALL of them, thousands, maybe MILLIONS, as long as its their chosen destroyers doing it, you’re just late to the game…

  5. Chappelle is not liberal enough to warrant a felony charge against his attacker. If the blade not being open (on a switchblade) is a relief from felony charges, then a gun without a bullet in the chamber is too?

  6. Why does his lawyer think it’s pertinent that the attack happened while on stage, performing an act, at the Hollywood Bowl? If it happened in a dark alley, no charges, but if it happens on stage during a performance, charges should follow? Isn’t attacking someone, especially while possessing weapons a crime regardless of where the crime happens?

    Also curious if this is going to further Redpill some folks?

  7. “ Why does his lawyer think it’s pertinent that the attack happened while on stage, performing an act, at the Hollywood Bowl?”

    Because in his mind the progressive movement’s foot soldiers attacked a member of The Party. The Party is all about us against them and “us” includes politicians, big media, big pharma, academia, Hollywood and the media. The only exceptions are people who don’t support The Party’s agenda lock, stock and barrel. If they “cancel” you, or you opt out then you are fair game.

    It’s not rocket surgery to figure it out.

  8. Come on Silky Johnson, give your attacker a break. I know how you feel about folks from your Pan troglodyte clan. Give your buddy a break, he’s going to turn his life around and become a doktor.

  9. Chappelle is a very sharp guy. He’s going to quickly figure out the shitty political dynamic behind Gascon’s refusal to enforce the law against a violent faggot craptivist, and Chappelle will rhetorically barbecue everyone involved and who agrees with this bullshit lawlessness.
