The negative side of Humor
Where there is a positive side of things ... there is usually a negative side, and that goes for humor as well.
Unfortunately, the negative side of humor can be ugly ... it can hurt feelings, and can be harmful and destructive! There are people in this world who do almost anything for money. There are people in this world who do to power almost anything. There are people in this world who almost do anything for fame. And there are people in this world who do almost anything to get a laugh ... and if they hurt someone in the process ... no excuses ... business as usual!
In my view, this country is a big, bold attitude suffer problem that needs to be fixed! What teach parents their children ... to be corrupt? What happened to manners and respect? I have not seen a local news broadcast on television for years! Why? It's the same old broken record ... only the names are changed. The same old tired stories ... those who ... murdered, raped that another woman was robbed ... and there are more and more corruption scandal ... etc.
All this gets old after a while. You must be wondering whether it is good news, more in America! Yes, there is good news has not sell newspapers, and the television ratings and newspapers will not sell if it is not bad news!
I think that this society turns more and more negative, and everything negativity rubs off on the children and grandchildren. There is so much negativity in this society, that some of the people who claimed to be leaders and role model citizens in the community to be blown up for one or the other. Corruption; DWI; bad behavior in general.
How Humor this bad behavior to fit all? Lay the other ... just a laugh today! Ethnic jokes ... to obtain only a laugh! Racial slurs ... to obtain only a laugh! Dirty jokes ... to obtain only a laugh! Tease the other ... just to get a laugh! Negative humor, such as alcohol; Prostitution; Drugs will always be with us, and we all have to live with it, etc. Negative sentiment for America is another black eye!
A few years ago, when we on a few high school campus is part of the violence across the country. Students and others were shot and killed on the school grounds! There is no doubt in my mind that some of this violence began, at least partially, due to taunt children until they could not stand it anymore ... just to get a laugh!
What parents teach their children today? Have you ever heard of mutual respect? If they have heard of it, they do mutual respect, to teach their children? Many of us have been teased at school, I know what I have. As Hispanic, I remember, I was teased because I was not well, speak English or write. Kids would make fun of me ... just to get a laugh! It was so annoying for me that I did not go back to school! Everyone knows that children can be terrible. I have always been reluctant to give an oral book report for fear that the children would laugh at me! I will always remember those awful days of ridicule and hatred!
If you ever been depressed, by which I refer to as "the jester and people put-down" that enjoy a laugh get at the expense of someone else, then you know how awful it prick! I am reminded of a comedian (as he calls himself) that goes around the country, settling and making fun of people with disabilities and questioned ... only to get a laugh! This type is the lowest of the low! What's this? For a sense of humor What kind of people would laugh this jerk to see who finds amusing to people with disabilities! This so-called comedian and his followers are what I call "the little minds in the world!" You are spoiled ... all of them who would do such a thing!
Where is this country headed, if we allow this kind of thing, that is, making fun of the disabled and mentally handicapped? I know that the issue of free speech involved in ... and not much can be done about it! Are your children allow this so-called comedian to see the bottom set the disabled and the impugned
* I do not know funny or amusing to see a person something that has suffered a disease ?; an accident, and who will be the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
spend * I do not see anything funny or amusing about a person who was born with a deformity.
* I do not see anything funny or amusing about a blind person who is struggling.
* I have nothing to look funny or amusing about a person who has a speech impediment, hearing loss or serious burns!
Regrettably, humor play a part in all this, because it is the "small minds in the world", which I mentioned earlier that ever get this laughing their kicks ... bIS A TRAGEDY HAPPENED TO YOU! But there is a solution to all these, and is only with parents. Parents have to teach their children to respect others ... teasing or put-down by others out of bounds! Two of the most important words in the world are, "mutual respect", and the parents have to teach their children to respect others and to stay away from negative people, so that they do not negatively itself.
Negative and dirty humor are unacceptable to me! A person must not dirty to be funny! Negative humor can sting when you are on the receiving end of it! Many years ago, the senior President Bush said: "What we need is a gentler nation!" What he is talking about, I think, is what we do with each other as human beings ... and much of it is no laughing matter!
