    Question Comedy. Where is the line?

    Hello everyone.
    I wont mention any names here because that doesn't matter. What I want to know is where is the line in comedy? i.e when does a joke become "too" offensive?
    I am of the opinion that there isn't a line, but some of my jokes seem to have upset some members. Which is not what I want to do.
    I mean Is this too far?



    Surely not. If you hear a song on the radio you don't like do you call the artist to ask him to stop singing it? No, you just turn the station or ignore it.
    I know its a touchy subject for some, but for me it all comes down to freedom of speech.

    Let me know what you all think

    I don't care if what you say is positive or negative

    Maybe rough, but too much? Thats the point. Comedy (for me anyway) should make you feel a little uncomfortable
    Maybe I just don't know what is not ok to joke about IDK :s
