#SNL: ISIS Commercial Parody Sparks Both Outrage & Admiration …

SNL sparked a Twitter frenzy early Sunday their ISIS parody. 50 Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson and the spoofed a the Toyota commercial where a father drops his daughter off at the airport as she sets off to join the Army that lampoons the recent swarm of young girls who have fled to Syria to shack up with the extremists. At the end the father tells an ISIS thug:

“Take care of her”

…to which he responds in a whisper;

“Death to America.”

This, not surprisingly, this didn’t sit well with some people on social media. Whomever Ed Tate is, he was fuming mad….

“Is ISIS really a good subject for humor?”

But others approved…

“Seriously? SNL is being criticized for mocking Isis, and the people who join it? There’s no group more deserving of ridicule. Thumbs up #SNL”

User @SamanthaNWho wrote:

“People are honestly offended by the ISIS #SNL sketch? If you’ve been a long time fan & you’re not familiar with satire — turn off your tv.”

Exactly. In the end, it IS what makes a democratic society different… you don’t have to love every parody but, I think you have to allow and support it. Watch…
