A Joke: Madeleine McCann, The Pope And A Paedophile Are…
AT the Edinburgh Fringe young stand-up Nick Doody says that Madeleine McCann’s parents were right to visit the Pope “because if anyone can find a paedophile…”
He explains: “Just because you make a joke about something doesn’t mean you find the subject itself funny. To laugh at a ‘knock knock’ joke, you don’t have to find doors hilarious. But people are looking for offence. Why did the chicken cross the road? I can’t believe you’d say that! My mother was pecked to death by a chicken!”
Funny..?

I have just read all 101 pevious posts.
For goodness sake, it’s not a McCann joke, it’s a Pope joke.

It just like the telly if you don’t like it change the channel.
We, my oldest brother and I, just buried my brother, April 8th, 2008, he was only 43 years old/
Humor, laughter, remembering his life, seeing old family again, got us through the difficult moments, between the grief and heaviness of our hearts.
It’s how the mind cope’s with the stages of grief: to laugh and cry and laugh and cry.

To those that are insulted by the jokes:
Yes I DO see your point of view but nobody asked you to read these, you are not required to waste your time on here x

And in fact, it was you people that clicked on the headline… to read about the joke. Perhaps rather than moaning about it, a better way to deal with your disapproval would be to just ignore it. If people read the stories, the press will continue to print them. So it’s up to you.

Oh dear, what has happened to sense of humour?! Jokes like these are not meant to be offensive to the people in what can only be described as a terrible situation. I am sure that if you asked any of the creators of these jokes, they would say that they felt nothing but sympathy for the poor family. Creating a bit of light out of a bad situation does not mean that you are disrespecting or insulting anybody. News creates jokes - end of story. If you find the jokes offensive, that is also fine - you don’t have to read them.

We don’t all share the same ’sense’ of humour, but black humour does have its place.
The only humour beyond me is of the ‘practical’ joke kind; usually fun to the perpetrator and no one else

HOW can anybody make jokes out of a 5 yr old girl who has been taken without consent?
the people who are making jokes are sick in the head and obviously are to immature to understand the full extent of pain and misery maddies mum must b feelin
if you made a joke out of it u best pray this dont happen 2 ur child
coz i promse u sad, pathetic wasters wont b laughing then.

Welcome to the site FiRe, but you may rest assured no one is laughing at Madeleine’s predicament and plight.
Also if you are intending to post here , we prefer you would not use text language. If you want your posts read , then use full English, after all if you can’t be bothered to type why would anyone bother to read it?

I can not believe the makes of this site is allowing sashin tandulka to say what the twat is saying. That sort of talk is bang out of order. He is obviously very sick in the head. Real or not its not fucking god. Sort yourself out and have a bit of respect.
Whatever has happened with Maddie, jokes should not be made. Have none of you got a heart or soul?
