I don't find those funny Grape, but I probably should, the second one is damned creative.

I don't think it's ever too soon, I think of it like I think of racial slurs; While it's not something I consider offensive at all ever, it's almost never needed and any person is smart enough to understand a lot of people are hurt or upset by them and you are increasing the chances of violence, so why do it.

While Grapes posts are actually pretty creative lampoons, and I am not personally offended at all, I do think we'd be better off without them.

I would probably care more if people in the US gave a **** about the hundreds of thousands of people being killed in the rest of the world every year.

I obviously think it was a tradgedy, but its hardly the worst the world has seen in the last 6 years (Darfur anyone?). And laughing over something always eases the pain and makes things easier to accept. Its not to show disrespect. Have you ever heard cops joke? They're very tasteless, but they have to be to stay sane and get through the day.

all I originally intended to post was the :-\

Yeah man, like Darfur, Uganda, Congo... all of those places are going through far worse **** but since they're not a driving economic force, we don't really give a ****, which is ***. It sucks that the people died, but we need to stop treating it like it was Armageddon.

But it was Armageddon because it was American people.

I know rite, the all important equation 1A=10,000E

Where A=American people and E is just everyone else.
