No, I don't find the death of people particularly funny. I find this funny due to its sheer absurdity. Even then, why is death suddenly a sacred fucking cow? Are Holocaust jokes no longer funny because Jews died?

What's wrong with the Italian Navy? They not rebuild after Taranto?


Refugees =/= criminals, and saving lives isn't a crime - they're literally stopping European coast guards from doing their jobs.

Iirc about 2% of the migrants coming into Europe from North Africa qualify for refugee status, and for those 2% I have all the time in the world. Whether or not the rest are criminals, the people smugglers shipping them are, especially since a fair chunk of the time the nearest safe port these people could, and should, be taken to is in Tunisia, not Italy.

That time and place probably not being while you do nothing as Jews are actively being holocausted.

Having tact about dark humour is why it can be funny. I'm not going to make a 9/11 joke at the WTC memorial, or a Jarhead joke at a funeral for a service member.

And you know who deals with criminals?

Generally, government institutions.

Like Coast Guards.

Not manchildren who want to see people drown because 'lol brown people'.

Which is an issue. People taking advantage of the aftermath from the Arab Spring and subsequent conflicts to start new routes of human trafficking. You might be safer getting intercepted by the navy in the Med, than if you land at the shores.

That's all well and good, but sometimes 'common sense and courtesy' need to step aside so as to lighten the hearts of others.

They should never step aside. If you can't make jokes tactfully, then you shouldn't be making jokes at all.

I would think a law suit in the International Court at the Hague would scare them into policing their coast properly. :shock:

Why would you sue Libya to stop European pirates operating out of Sicily?

They should never step aside. If you can't make jokes tactfully, then you shouldn't be making jokes at all.

Sometimes blunt insensitivity is what you need, not tactful, beat-around-the-bush jokes you insist upon.

Well.. maybe..

The rise of the Tea Baggers.. those noble genital droppers.. seem to have started this idea that the world of white man is under attack.. now it seems to be entering the mainstream under various guises.

As Louis CK noted 'be a white man over the last two millennia and you're pretty much guaranteed a seat at any restaurant table..'

I'm white and male, I just don't feel so insecure that I'd not wish to extend as much a welcome hand to anyone else to that table as I could.

I'm sorry if your sense of humour doesn't extend as far as mine, I'm sure you're content with whatever jokes you tell to your friends.

I wholeheartedly agree.

I mean they should be doing a better job, but I'm not going to stand behind private piracy.

I love how misleading the Daily Mail likes to make its headlines.
UNHCR said only 4,808 were granted asylum in Italy and 40% of the arrivals were found to be in need of international protection.


So it's for those 40% that you have all the time in the world for. Unless you only have time for refugees who are granted asylum in Italy rather than being recognized as refugees but settled elsewhere in the EU.
