The comedian referred back to a Minneapolis show in July, claiming protesters at the venue threw eggs and even a police barricade at his fans (via toofab)
Speaking about those who are coming out in protest against him, Chappelle said,"They want to be feared. 'If you say this, then we will punish you. We'll come to First Avenue and f*** your show up and we'll come to the Varsity Theater and f**** your show up.' And they just don't get to do that."
As for the problems with the content of his comedy, Chappelle argues that"art is a nuanced endeavor." He believes that there is a movement in American culture to remove that nuance and make"people speak as if they're either on the right or left." "Everything seems absolute, and any opinion I respect is way more nuanced than these binary choices they keep putting in front of us," he argued."I don't see the world in red or blue."
As for the show itself, Chappelle called it a rousing success."When I walked on stage, it was a huge ovation," he said."Because suddenly going to see a comedy show was this huge act of defiance."
