There's a huge difference between bucking puritanical social norms around sex and vulgarity, and making light of a situation where an innocent bystander was killed, and a former president and current candidate was shot at. Those things are drastically different and it's honestly crazy to me that people are trying to use JB's prior sophomoric humor as a reason why he should have been okay with what might charitably be called gallows humor
Had he not missed the bystander would be alive.
So.
