Panelists on CNN’s late-night comedy show on Saturday poked fun at the massive uptick in violent attacks on Tesla dealerships and owners, many of which have involved the use of explosive devices.
When reacting to Elon Musk’s political activities, including the Trump ally’s recent pledge to get involved in judicial races, far-left activist and alleged comedian Amber Ruffin asked; “when do we riot?” The remark was met with cheers and applause from the crowd.
“Here’s what I’ve been doing: I’ve been going around to random Tesla dealerships and lighting cars on fire,” “Reno 911” actor Michael Ian Black chimed in. “I just realized: There’s a good chance I’ll get arrested for saying I was lighting cars on fire at a Tesla dealership. I didn’t do that, I wouldn’t do that.”
