Was Will Smith RIGHT?

We are discussing it at our work so you’re probably discussing it too.  Chris Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith shaving her head and that she’ll star in the next GI Jane movie.  It’s been in the news that Jada suffers from a disease that causes hair loss, Alopecia and that’s why she shaved her head.  At first Will goes along with the joke but then sees his wife’s reaction and decides to walk on stage pulling a Kanye West but this time slaps Chris Rock.  Considering the state of mental health in this country I don’t think Will was wrong but right?   l believe life is hard and two bad decisions were made at the same time.  

Whether you are on team Will or team Chris or like me team be kind, maybe, this is what we needed to spark a conversation on mental health.  Even an Oscar Winner(for King Richard) suffers.  There is no discrimination when it comes to a mental health disease.  btw Chris Rock is not pressing charges.
