Only in this country can someone get on TV and make a "stupid joke" about the President's death being a fortunate thing and we're supposed to "relax" about it, but if O'Reilly makes a "stupid joke" about Mexicans and tamales at Christmas or blacks and watermelon, he would be crucified and the entire country would have already heard about it.

I don't think that GE, parent company of NBC, wants that kind of publicity. Joking or not they won't like it.

Yeah. Sure. I'll bet he thinks it's hilarious to yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater, too.

There are lots of nuts out there in the world who would take a statement like this at face value and try to carry it out ...... just look at what's happening in MD, right on the outskirts of DC ...... that guy (or those guys?) is taking people out with just one shot ...... and all they're doing is going about their daily business.

I'm sorry but there are some things one simply doesn't joke about. There are several FReepers who have had the SS knocking on their door pretty quickly for saying much milder things relative to x42.

This guy needs to be off the air ..... and in a jail cell.

Have you ever seen what happens to people who make stupid jokes like that in an airport?
