As in the ones that are in no way amusing or intelligent whatsoever. With this proposal in mind, OP should be banned, wrapped up in cardboard, and shipped to Afghanistan whereupon their army will test their guns on him to see if they are in proper working order. He will also be prodded with rusty forks on a constant basis. I think this is a fair proposal.

The point I was making it was less than an hour that the man had died that you had some morons thinking they're funny making jokes about him. They're the ones with the bull**** responses. And they're the ones ruining AH thinking they're edgey.

These jokes aren't funny, the reason they ellicit a reaction at all is because they're so inappropriate.
