On Sunday during an appearance at Politicon, Charlamagne tha God was interrupted during his remarks by two women protesting for the trans community.

The protest was sparked by the recentĀ #BreakfastClubBoycott hashtag that cropped up after the show found itself under fire for comments that Lil Duval made suggesting that he would kill a trans woman if he were dating her and found out that she was transgender.

ā€“Jokes about Janet Mock, killing trans women ignite ā€˜Breakfast Clubā€™ boycottā€“

ā€œThis might sound messed up and I donā€™t careĀ ā€” but sheā€™s dying. I donā€™t care,ā€Ā he said, going on to add,Ā ā€œIf one did that to me and didnā€™t tell me, Iā€™d probably be so mad Iā€™d kill them.ā€

During Politican, the two protesters interrupted Charlamagneā€™s response by shouting out, ā€œWe are not a joke!ā€ and ā€œTrans people are not a joke!ā€

One of the women continued to chant ā€œwe are not a jokeā€ while the other shouted out that Charlamagne had allowed a comedian on his show to belittle the suffering of trans women.

In response, Charlamagne explained to the audience at large what the protesters were there for and said that when Duval had made the ā€œjoke,ā€ he ā€œimmediatelyā€ responded by saying, ā€œNo, you canā€™t do that. Thatā€™s a hate crime.ā€
