They got another serial killer working that area again?

I'm surprised libs were shocked. The murderer loving crowd being aghast at Oliver Stone? Its really weird.

Typical liberal. If you screw up, it must be 'their' fault. 'They' were obviously too unintelligent to get the nuances of the joke. What an arrogant ass.

He probably thought they were all part of a conspiracy to hide the fact that Prince Harry is really behind the murders...

It bombed because liberals have no sense of humor. None whatsoever. They're perpetually enraged.

Realising his joke had bombed, Stone sneered: "You're a lovely crowd."Michael Richards could learn something from this....

"They're perpetually enraged."
And hopelessly retarded.

Today liberals are offended by even bad jokes. Never try to kid a lib - they'll tear your head off.

Oh, come on--whenever someone delivers a joke that bombs they respond exactly the same way. A comedian who delivers a bomb doesn't say "Oh, I'm so sorry I offended you." They make a gratuitous insult and move on.

Humor today is a dying art. I think its funny Stone got booed in of all places, a Comedy Awards gala.

Murder jokes = booing.
Racial jokes = booing, Al Sharpton, and 6-figure settlement.

To: beaversmom
I remember watching the Johnny Carson show one night back in the '70s, where Joan Rivers was doing a standup routine. She had the audience absolutely roaring with laughter, until the point where she said, "I'm so ugly that when I was born my mother took one look at me and demanded an abortion." A dead, stony silence immediately ensued.

Agreed. Have you noticed that in most stand up acts there are always "jokes" that are merely expressions of politically-correct thought, and the audience chuckles a little...and then APPLAUDS? They're applauding the political point of view, which their weak laughter admits isn't very funny.
Humor should take no sides. These days, all comedians seem interested in making sure the audience knows they hate Bush, and their jokes at the libs are of the "but I love him/her, anyway, and am just laughing at their foibles, which make them loveable" variety.

Hey, I think the guy is a creep...but the line between funny and tasteless can be a fine one, as a certain would-be comedian found out.

It tickles me to see them let their hair down and keep stubbing their toes. Have you noticed that they treat their electoral victory as license to misbehave? They are still mad, too.
