(24,928 posts)But your attempt to defend HRC and diBlasio by using Obama telling a similar joke is just as ridiculous
Go into an Irish bar and tell the same joke about the Irish that an Irishman/woman has been telling and the time it'll take for you to be knocked on your ass will be measured in nanoseconds with my Irish born ancestors leading the way
Tell a Croat joke, a Japanese joke, a Korean joke, etc in that group and you're not one of them, you'll likely get your butt kicked
Jokes that can be considered derogatory, when told within that particular ethnic, cultural or religious group are acceptable because they are members of the group, there is a shared experience and they're not considered slamming that group (ie no malice with a paint brush)
Why you've chosen to continue a no-win topic that should be laid to rest and move on I don't know
Why you don't seem to get the difference probably explains the former
