The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Do not express malicious joy towards your brother’s misfortune, for Allaah may have mercy on him and you may be stricken by the thing you made fun of.

I like that you guys are citing a similar (yet still not identical as still no crimped hand) impression of Cruz that occurred three months after the original incident was national news. As though mocking someone similarly three months later somehow proves that the initial mocking wasn't at all motivated by the subject's disability

and yes Trump, did indeed mock a disabled reporter.


He mocked a disabled reporter, but he didn't mock the reporter's disability. Big difference. If you were smarter, or more honest, you'd see that.

I have been told about a few porn movies but no one has even mentioned a hit man or a man with an eye patch.

It was mildly funny till the part about lost his eye in combat whatever then said whatever again.

Like to see that pussy in combat.

Honestly who cares? The right loves to highlight how the left is too pc and can’t take a joke but they are just the same in reality.

Yes. It is being offended over this while gleefully mocking McCain and crowing over his death.

When Cajun questioned my post, I went and literally googled "Trump didn't mock disabled reporter" and read several very pro Trump results with an eye towards the idiot media generally getting shite wrong. When I watched each piece of "evidence" they presented, none looked like what Trump did in reference to the reporter. The closest was Cruz, which again, was three months later.

It's not the end of the world that Trump mocked a guy for his disability, or that SNL mocked a veteran. Both are in extremely poor taste. But I simultaneously wish both sides would grow up and stop being so petty *and* grow thicker skin and quit bitching so much.

I watched the segment and it was a funny clip. Let the libs get outraged over jokes, we are better than that.

When civil discourse breaks down, that's when bullets start flying. There can be no discourse with the Left. They exist in a different mental reality than conservatives.

Backlash over a comedian telling a joke.

Unhinged.


I agree. But that line of thinking is only afforded to one side of the spectrum.

He agrees, he made fun of his own appearance in the exact same segment

It was just a joke, though. Nobody is really offended at this. Anyone who says otherwise is pretending.

But I guess I'm mean for making fun of him since he has some kind of medical condition he can't help.
He’s been to roasts where everyone makes fun of his dad dying in the 9/11 attacks. If he can take those jokes, we can take his.
