I never complained when we had images of middle eastern kids getting shot. Yes, here in TranceAddict. One i can exactly remember was where a kid and his father hiding behind a barrel and then both being shot, the son being killed with a bullet to the head. It was graphic, as these jesus pictures are, but it was not offensive, it was insightful to people who think they live in a perfect world.
however, this is just meant to offend people. Post it on somethingawful, sure, but does it really belong on this forum? Robert Guliani (sp?) went on SNL after 9/11 and reassured eveyrone "now it is ok to laugh again." Taking something as significant as a man's death is not anything to be humoured about. Why don't we start posting threads about watching Bud Dwyer shoot himself and put some kind of caption as "who wants extra catsup!"
it's sick and demeaning to have one person's agony , suffering and death to be another person's humour
btw:
Q. What did the blonde say when she opened a box of Cheerios?
A. Oh, look! Doughnut seeds! |
It wasn't posted to offend people, it was posted to make people laugh. The reason jokes like this are funny (dead baby jokes come to mind also) is because of people like you who get all riled up. It's tongue-in-cheek, get a sense of humour.
