Do you know what George Carlin thought about UFC/MMA type sports?

He thought that every overagressive, muscle-brained brute should be forced into a 24 hour deathmatch in one pit. The last man standing would be led to a pedestal and shot in the head. What do you think of the late George Carlin's wisdom?
 
I have no idea what he thought of the UFC or MMA but to be quite honest what I get from the madman is he was actually against violence. He used violence in his humor and as a means to an end of violent jerkofs. He gave me the impression that he was against mindless violence and anti war. He kept his little ponytail even to express his hippie beliefs, that's just one of the reasons I feel he was against violence.

He was the greatest comedian, in my opinion. He always made me laugh and there were so many times I felt like I agreed with him. He had many valid points. There was a lot of humor but there was a lot of wisdom behind the funny if you actually looked for it. My fave comedian (who is still alive) is now Louis CK but I don't feel the same as I did with Carlin. Nobody can take his place as a comedian.
 
I had front row seats to one of the last shows he put on. It was amazing! The way edgy comedy works (and not faux edgy like Desperate Housewives or People magazine... real edgy like Howard Stern, South Park, and George Carlin) is that either everything is OK to make fun of, or nothing is. He made pretty offensive jokes about terminal illnesses at the show I attended, and guess what? Not everybody laughed. But nobody walked out.

RIP
