SNL IS

From Yahoo:
"Dakota Johnson’s ‘SNL’ ISIS spoof stirs outrage online"

A “Saturday Night Live” commercial spoof is stirring outrage online over its depiction of a female high school graduate who leaves her family to join the Islamic State militant group also known as ISIS. The ad, starring “SNL” host and “50 Shades of Grey” star Dakota Johnson is a spoof of the Toyota commercial that portrays an Army-bound daughter being dropped off at the airport by her father. In the “SNL” version, though, the daughter is being picked up by Islamic militants in a Toyota pickup truck. “You be careful, OK?” says the father, played by Taran Killam. “Dad, it’s just ISIS,” she replies. When a teary-eyed Killam instructs one of the militants, played by Kyle Mooney, to “take care of her,” he replies, “Death to America.” As the truck drives away, a voice-over assures Killam: “ISIS: We’ll take it from here, Dad.” While the studio audience seemed to laugh, plenty of viewers at home didn’t find it so funny. Depraved? Perhaps, but the premise isn’t entirely inconceivable. Last month, a 19-year-old Colorado woman was sentenced to four years in prison for conspiracy to support the terror group after admitting she wanted “to become an ISIS bride.” The woman, Shannon Maureen Conley, was arrested at Denver International Airport, where she was attempting to board a one-way flight to Turkey. Conley’s parents tipped off FBI investigators after her father reportedly caught his daughter communicating with her terrorist “suitor” on Skype.

 

^ This skit was funny and sad at the same time. SNL hasn't had many funny skits in a decade, but every once and awhile one sneaks in. I can understand people not thinking it was funny since the reality is lots of stupid girls and women (and boys and men) are joining IS in great numbers. IS aims to destroy and murder anyone not part of IS and so that includes all Christians, Jews and different Muslim sects. Some see the skit in a different way. A woman joining the Nazis to help murder Jews, the disabled, etc. They say it wouldn't be funny it that had happened, but if we had the Internet back in the 1940s the Nazis couldn't have murdered 6 million Jews and millions upon millions of overs. It wouldn't have been a secret and the Allies couldn't act as though they "didn't know" and do nothing to stop it. With IS we see everything they do. Most of the world chooses to not do a thing to stop them and the ones that do (the US, Canada, UK, etc) only bomb them while nothing really changes on the ground. The real issue with this skit is how to stop all the idiots from joining IS. I can think of many things to do to them. They see excitement and rebellion in IS and yet don't realize that IS will use them as cannon fodder and if they aren't killed by the anti-IS coalition then IS will kill them when they are no longer useful. Either way I  say "good riddance" We don't need these kind of idiots. We need to stop them only to save the people they are going to help murder. I could care less what happens to the volunteers themselves. ^
