Discuss. I personally find the joke to be quite witty and hilarious.

I didn't exactly crack up laughing, but I don't think the joke was offensive. Yes, predator drones have killed innocent people. So have guns, dogs, sporks (you know SOMEONE did it), etc. Can we not joke about those either?

 

[Juice]

We joke about Muslim people blowing up in Marketplaces and killing dozens of innocent people.

But we can't joke about a piece of machinery that does the same? It's all relative I think, the President was just making a casual joke (The same when you bring a guy home and the dad is cleaning the shotgun. The difference is, Obama is cleaning the Predator drone)

"Let's be honest, fellow progressives; we'd be all over Bush if he made the same 'predator drone' joke."

This. Either way, though, I'd say they were being hypersensitive.

What people are overlooking was the REAL cringe-worthy moment of the joke. No, it wasn't the predator drones part. It was the "don't get any ideas" part. Seriously, the youngest Jonas Brother is like 17, and the oldest is like, what, 22? Obama's kids are like 10.

Ew.

Or maybe that is the joke. Predator Drones meant for Child Predators :CStern:

Obama has a good idea.

Child Predator Drones.

 

[Enishi]

This is a typical father thing.

 

[Ser Gregor]

I found them comical.

Obama can practice his second amendment rights too.

 

[Sandvich]

[Brandon Rhea]

Obama can practice his second amendment rights too.

HELL YEAH! **** those liberals for trying to take away our God given right to predator drones!

 

[Sovereign]

Pakistanis are guilty until proven innocent.

 

[Azium]

Pakistanis are guilty until proven innocent.

Amen. :CStern:

 

[Sovereign]

Besides;

[Niner]

I chuckled...and SIN you are right...I would totally have one as a pet if they weren't so damn hard to house train....oil on the carpets and dropping bombs left and right without waiting to be let outside....

If I could fit it under a tree, I'd buy it for my kids as a Christmas present.

 

[Sovereign]

"It's funny, because predator drone strikes in Pakistan have killed literally hundreds of completely innocent civilians,"

I'm glad he gets the joke.

 

[Enishi]

Damn Pakis.

Dem an' dere desert

 

[Azium]

I chuckled...and SIN you are right...I would totally have one as a pet if they weren't so damn hard to house train....oil on the carpets and dropping bombs left and right without waiting to be let outside....

Oh lord and the bark it has... They're only cute when they're young...

 

[Niner]

Oh lord and the bark it has... They're only cute when they're young...

Oh yeah, that thing will keep you up all night...it's like they never need to sleep....
