People didn't react to it like that though, which is my point. Twitter anger as Manchester United fanzine Red Issue takes aim at Fabrice Muamba 'grief junkies' - Manchester Evening News

It's not saying "We hope the player is dead." It would be different if it did.

The same way there's a difference between a joke about raping someone and a joke about the rape culture.
Is saying this even a joke though? & as for the 2nd sentence, both of those are jokes, as long as it's a joke, no problem.

Not trying to be a twat or anything, I hear what you're saying. Just posting my opinion.
