Re: Where's the line for Comedians

There certainly is a line and it was most definitely crossed by Carr on this occasion. As Margaret pointed out, had he made a joke about muslims or the holocaust etc he would have been castigated by mainstream media. It seems some P.C causes are more trendy than others. How disabled children can be mocked whilst a whole religion can be protected is beyond me. I think if i would be more offended by the Downs Syndrome gag than any about my colour etc. It seems that certain minority groups are'nt worthy of P.C protection purely because there are'nt as many of them to upset and lose their votes, thats why its political.
