I did not think the joke was funny, nor did it personally offend me,
and yet I would still like to take Tom up to the rez for a round a bout with
his funny joke, ok not really, But Not every person is going to think that joke is funny,
oh well, gimme a break. Tom likes the drama anyways.

I understand that not everyone likes every joke. How about this one?

If a pediatrician opens a clinic on a reservation,

would it be called a small Injun repair shop?

Yep it's a-comin all right and not just in America.

Have you heard the real reason why Crazy Horse was killed?

The Lakota people were starving, so Crazy Horse finally came in to the rez to save his people.

After they got their, they were told that they all had to have jobs to help support themselves.

Crazy Horse offered to be the fort's barber.

I am astounded by the reactions of a few over this joke. It was a good joke, it I suspect is also true in the sense that it is a reflection of the feeling of mainstream America of things that are happening now.

Claims of Racism/racial hatred by some go a bit far for mine. Black, white, blue or brindle you have to see the humour in it.

I am a Conservative and proud of it, I believe in Honesty and Straightforwardness, I am more often than not blunt and straight to the point and what goes along with that is not being politically correct.

"Political Correctness" Can not be found in any dictionary I can readily access, simply because it does not exist. It is a phrase used by people who would rather buckle under to those who wish to oppress others or those who are too weak of spirit to accept the truth in a straight forward manner.

So-called political correctness is fast destroying society in the most insidious ways, so-called political correctness is as effective as diplomacy in a lot of ways because sometimes diplomacy is rarely straight forward or honest.

I personally would rather tell the truth bluntly and offend than be politically correct and use language that skirts the issue while making concessions along the way to appease.

People who demand political correctness my be in the vocal minority but the silent majority have had enough of the BS forced down their throats.

Up the Revolution!!

I just thought it was a really lame, unfunny joke, which totally leads me to believe that Tom is correct in thinking that he'd heard it told by someone on the blue-collar comedy tour.
