Tonight on SNL, Walton Goggins appeared in a sketch set on the Constitutional Conference, centered on debate over the second modification.
The sketch opens after the primary modification is settled on, with delegate James Austin Johnson questioning what the group would possibly body as “the second most necessary precept of our nation.”
“Weapons!” says a personality performed by Goggins.
“Excuse me?” Johnson asks, with Goggins merely repeating himself.
“I don’t hate that,” says a delegate performed by Mikey Day.
“Effectively, I do. It’s ridiculous,” says Johnson. “Sir, what’s your title?”
(It’s Matt.)
“Matt what?” asks Johnson.
“Matt Don’t You Fear About It,” says Goggins.
“Effectively, Matt, what is going to posterity say of us if the second proper we enshrine on this doc is just weapons?” Johnson wonders.
“That we don’t play,” he says.
“Rattling, that’s really form of sick,” says Andrew Dismukes, one in every of a gaggle of delegates who rapidly come to take Matt’s aspect.
Johnson says “that is ludicrous,” with Day arguing, “We did simply make a regulation that mentioned anybody can say no matter loopy stuff they need, proper? Perhaps this gun factor would form of stability that out.”
“Bingo,” says Goggins.
“Okay, sure. However by the identical token, wouldn’t having a gun embolden folks to say loopy stuff as properly?” Johnson asks.
“Bro, what?” asks Goggins.
“Gents, we can not simply have an modification that claims ‘weapons.’ What about weapons?” asks Johnson.
“Having them,” Goggins asserts.
Johnson says he’s open to discussing weapons “for a later modification,” however insists on transferring on to extra urgent considerations for the second. He asks Matt which state he’s from, with Goggins’ character replying, “a united one.”
“Have weapons? Actually, gents? That’s what we wish the second modification to be? ‘Have weapons.’ That sounds idiotic,” says Johnson.
“Simply chill. Not have weapons. Bear arms,” Goggins replies.
“Ah, yeah. Okay. I’m freaking offered. I’m writing it down,” says Johnson.
With that, Matt’s work is completed, and he turns to go away the room.
“Wait, Matt, will we ever see you once more?” asks Johnson, with Goggins replying, “Depends upon the place you look.”
“No person ever did see him” although, a narrator tells us, “as he was shot minutes after leaving the room.”
Goggins hosted tonight, with Arcade Fireplace as musical visitor. Watch the complete sketch above.
