If Smith should be charged with anything, it should be for slapping like a bitch. If you're gonna slap a man (which is already pathetic) in defense of your wife, you need to hit him with some palm. Make him feel it. Rock hardly flinched. I could see why people thought initially it might've been a joke. If someone told me to slap them in the face as a joke, I'd slap exactly as hard as Smith did.

I've noticed the change in human behavior where this will becoming more of a norm. People running on to ball fields or wanting to do something drastic for their IG.

Edit: I just watched that. I've always thought Lady Gaga was a talented and good person. The class she showed for this was amazing. First Tony Bennett and now Liza. Good for her.
I honestly have mixed feelings when they trot out an aging star who may or may not fully understand what is going on. Gaga handled it with grace and love, which is great. Liza seemed to be enjoying herself, but at first seemed confused. then out of the blue started reading the teleprompter, so I was somewhat relieved at that point.

Chris Rock should have busted a cap in his ass. Too bad it wasn’t broadcast from Flo Rida where he could have claimed that he feared for his life and stood his ground. Now that would have made for an Oscar presentation to talk about.
Speaking of comedy clubs and celebrities, did anyone catch the dude who approached Mike Tyson at a comedy club, Mike was sitting front row, and the guy just keeps saying, “all I need is a go with you Mike, c’mon, Mike, make me,” and when security tries to get him away, he pulls a gun, everyone backs off and scrambles, Mike just sits there and eventually they hug and the guy bails out an exit? Then the comic tries to make a joke but can’t really fathom what just happened. Seems to me the guy wanted a swing from Mike so he could do something back and be IG famous. Fucked up.

I’m not an Amy Schumer fan, but her “did I miss anything?” bit saved the tone of the show. It’s a shame that Will Smith’s actions took the attention off Questlove’s speech though.
There is no excuse for what Smith did. The violence and intent should not be ignored and, at the very least, he should have apologised to Rock in his speech. You could say that it was a bad taste joke, but Smith was laughing at it until he saw the look on his wife’s face. If any of the 3 female hosts had made that joke, he wouldn’t have done anything.
I really hope he isn’t invited back next year to present an award.

If Burt Ward or Chris O'Donnel would have made the joke, he might have not either.
It could have been something brewing between him and Chris Rock. They are not strangers to each other. Or Chris Rock joking about them.
Just saying, widening the scope a little from this female vs male" thing.
Still weird he wasn't immediately removed from the show. I can not see it as a possibility of him staying on if it was here in Sweden.
You guys don’t have stars this big over there though. And if ya did, hopefully you wouldn’t treat them like deities as our society does. Forget slapping him like Smith did. Jack Nicholson could’ve shot Rock dead and still stuck around to receive some sort of lifetime achievement award.
the media has been pointing out the "history" between Smith and Rock. when Rock hosted in 2016, he made fun of the Smiths' boycott of the Oscars over Smith not being nominated for (whatever movie it was). Rock said Jada boycotting the Oscars is like Rock boycotting Rhianna's panties: I wasn't invited!
that was pretty funny. But really? trying to say this constitutes "history" between them? stupid.

Smith should get banned from the Oscars for the next 5 years. Some say take his award away; disagree. not a natural consequence. one has nothing to do with the other.
Smith may have inadvertently made Rock's stock rise a ton. How many people WON'T tune into his next special? Whichever streaming service picks it up will likely have to pay BIG.
