Video: US TV host compares Zayn Malik to alleged terrorist behind Boston Bombing

There's some things you probably shouldn't joke about.

Well, US TV show host Bill Maher found out when he compared former One Direction singer Zayn Malik to the man believed to be responsible for carrying out the Boston Marathon bombings. Not a great move Bill, to be honest. https://youtu.be/sODOiLrzHqE Twitter didn't see the funny side either, to be honest...

I'm still annoyed and that at Zayn leaving the band and the way he handled it but what Bill Maher said is just sickening! Right prick! — 1D Updates (@1DLittleSecret) April 5, 2015

Dear Bill Maher, you better check your facts before embarrassing yourself on television #RespectForZayn pic.twitter.com/zlLuafsrus — Zayn Saved Me (@Hazel_Horan) April 5, 2015  

Then One Directioners hit back with the old Anders Breivik looky-likey gag. You kinda asked for it Bill... https://twitter.com/NotAllBhas/status/584543947919351809
