I still joke about anyone and everyone that I feel like. unless I am at work.

There is no right to NOT be offended.

Often I will notice people in the car behind me at a traffic light taking a picture of my bumper sticker with their phone. My sticker reads:

When fascism comes to America it will come across an unsecured border carrying a koran.

You can make fun of the Irish.

We don’t care and are fairly self deprecating.

White Christians, yep.

The only group that it’s “legal” to discriminate against.

Blondes.

They aren't an ethnicity but on the other hand there aren't too many asian, black or otherwise third world blondes.

So true. There’s a saying (I’ll probably mangle it a bit) about how it used to be you could joke about most anything, so long as you didn’t curse while doing it (that was “Blue” shows). Now, you can use all the foul language you want, just so long as your subject matter doesn’t offend anyone.

A Fortune 500 company I worked for made us sign a 10 page “ethics” statement. Among the prohibitions were we could not tell a joke, ever. When I asked why the round-eyed HR lady said, “because you have NO idea who you might offend.”
