Actor and member of the comedic musical duo "Tenacious D," Jack Black, created no small amount of outrage when Black's partner, Kyle Gass, wished for the next assassination attempt on Trump to go better than the first while doing a bit on stage on Sunday.

As shown in the clip that went viral around the internet, Gass can be seen making a birthday wish on stage, saying “Don’t miss Trump next time.” The crowd laughed and applauded as Gass blew out candles on a cake presented to him by a robot. 

Now, the outrage has become hot enough that Black announced on his Instagram that he's canceled the remainder of the band's tour and put all its activities on hold, saying that he was "blindsided" by Gass's comment and that he would "never condone hate speech or encourage political violence in any form." 

Gass has also apologized, calling his improvised words "highly inappropriate." 

Despite the apologies, Australian Senator Ralph Babet is calling for the deportation of Black and Gass.

"I condemn in the strongest possible way the call to political violence by Tenacious D in Sydney on Sunday," wrote Babet.

"To advocate and or wish for the assassination of a President is egregious, disgusting, filthy, evil, and not acceptable in any way, shape, or form," he continued.

"This was not a joke, he was deadly serious when he wished for the death of the President," added Babet. 

Babet called on Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albasnese to also condemn the band and have Immigration Minister Andrew Giles to revoke Gass and Black's visas, deporting them immediately. 

Actress Gina Carano is also among those calling for Black's behavior to be punished, aiming at Disney in particular. Carano called on Disney and Lucasfilm to comment on the behavior of Gass and Black while on stage, putting them on the spot to call what happened "abhorrent." Carano was fired from Disney/Lucasfilm's "The Mandalorian" after she posted a picture of a Jewish woman fleeing children in Germany during the time of the Nazis, commenting that Jewish people were so easy to round up during that time because their own neighbors would turn them in after years of indoctrination making Jewish people out to be the source of the country's problems.

"Would Lucasfilm or Disney like to comment on one of their actors on the Mandalorian promoting and at the very least not backing down and calming the actual abhorrent rhetoric on stage about joking about the assassination attempt failing to kill President Trump?" asked Carano. "Or is calling for peace between neighbors like I did the only values you at Disney/Lucasfilm find “abhorrent” and like making dangerous statements towards your female cast members to broadcast out to the Hollywood press and world."

Disney has yet to respond as of this writing.
