You sorta give up your right to be treated decently by society at that point.
- iamacyborg 4y agoI’m not convinced racist jokes are okay just because the subject of the joke is a criminal.
- mupuff1234 4y agoI don't see how it's a racist joke. It's a very specific joke that's only relevant for a very specific person. It would've been the same joke if his name was Connor, race is not relevant at all for this joke. But yes, "all jokes" is probably too broad of a statement.
- YATA2 4y agoThank God it wasn't a joke (it was a pun)! Glad you agree puns are fine and infantalizing minorities is dehumanizing them.

- mupuff1234 4y agoGenerally yes, but as he is known to joke about people "staying poor" so I have zero sympathy for him. Not saying we should throw him in jail without a trial, but I see no reason to feel bad for him in any way.
