... What if those kids were your kids?
How bad does it have to get before it isn't funny anymore? If I had been an outspoken Jew who was thrown on a train headed to out of town, Jebbie would have thought it was a good time to make a joke?
There is something wrong with you people. I am literally both shaking with rage and sick to my stomach. You disgust me.

I thought the "joke" was disgusting when I read it, but you have gone over the top. After all, the fellow who made the joke is here mainly to make bad jokes and derail threads from serious topics. UT is just a 'chat room' to many here and you must get used to it. Hell, several use it just to hone their stand-up act. (did Lewis Black start here?)
You will also find that many on both sides of the political divide love to use the government to punish those they dislike or that they do not understand. I have seen Democrats calling out for government action against others for decades --- they just call out for action against different groups than the Republicans.
This is one reason the "freedom message" falls flat when Democrats use it; it does not ring true to the populace. Don't get me wrong, many Democrats are true friends of freedom and liberty. Too bad they are such a tiny minority inside the Democratic Party. (same as with the Rs)
