Ship tip

I have a big complaint about one of the comedians his name is Dwayne Fredericks. He made his punch line on March 21st about guns and killing people. His guns/killing routine was presented during the early comedy show. He made comments about how impatient he was and how he wishes to shoot people and mimicking shooting a gun among the public shooting multiple people from different angles. There were children present since it was the early show and he went as far as asking two children to make a gun firing noise. One of the kids said no and the second one made a low sound that the comedian made fun saying that it was a weak noise. It was disgusting, uncalled for, inappropriate, and not funny at all. It felt as he is living in a different world that he is not taking in consideration the national crises about gun control. It is not comedy to get in front of hundreds of people and make fun of killing people this is not a joke. I did talked to the comedian manager- Alvin- the day before the last day of cruising and expressed my disbelief and discussed of the situation. He indicated that he had already had a talk to the person about his comedy "line/routine". I have been very upset about the situation, and I understand that Carnival is not responsible for children attending a comedy show that is intended for adults only. The issue is that this was the early show, and at any time killing people should not be a laughing matter.
