I agree with a petition to get him off comedy central. One point about the 1st Amendment, though: Warren DeMontague Jul 2012 #41

Good petition Alisse. stevenleser Jul 2012 #46

Thank you for the petition Fresh_Start Jul 2012 #71

This is not his most offensive joke, either. caseymoz Jul 2012 #15

An audience member interrupting a comedian to tell him his jokes aren't funny 4th law of robotics Jul 2012 #36

No, heckling needs to rise to the level of harassment or disruption. Gormy Cuss Jul 2012 #37

Yelling out things during his routine is not disrupting? 4th law of robotics Jul 2012 #38

But she didn't yell that, did she? She didn't yell anything that was an attack on the person. Gormy Cuss Jul 2012 #39

Telling a comedian that his jokes are not funny during his routine loud enough for him and the 4th law of robotics Jul 2012 #42

Suggesting someone has been or should be raped by five men. What would you call that? Gormy Cuss Jul 2012 #43
