Author Topic: A Tribute to 9/11 - Youtube accepted my request and put the video back up! Yay!  (Read 16338 times)

people affected by the house burning down: the house
people affected by 9/11: ~3,000 families

I find it funny how it is not allowed to make fun of 9/11 because it is 'disrespectful', yet making fun of the Holocaust, national socialists and WW2 is okay. Riddler and the national socialists were responsible for the death of more than 6 million jews, but noone seems to care about that anymore.

And I think that's okay. Seriously, we can't live in the past forever. Sure, it's very sad that these things happend, and god forbid they happen again. But we have to get over it. Humour is a good way to deal with sad things like these.  

I'm not saying it wasn't a tragedy, it was
but that doesn't mean you can't make a joke about it 12 years later.
People make WW2 jokes all the time and I bet you find some of them funny.

here's the difference:

when making a joke about Riddler, you're making fun of (or disrespecting) the 'enemy' in the situation.

people making 9/11 jokes usually poke fun at the entire incident, not just the terrorists who caused it, Osama bin Laden jokes are okay, a joke about the entirety of 9/11, is not.  It's disrespectful, that's all it is.

In the same fashion as making a joke about 11 million people dying in WW2 or soldiers giving lives in WW2 is disrespectful

I'm a hypocrite, but that's forgeted up.

Don't you just love the music in the background. hmm I smell conspiracy.


Know what would be hilarious if zalot's mom died
