Should comedy have limits, or should anything be allowed in jokes? By

Depends on how it's pushed. If there's only one type of comedy pushed, is that really right?

Is it right to use comedy to insult directly instead of indirectly?

If you're religious is it comedy to make fun of the religion within a church, place of worship or sacred place?

Is it comedy to make fun of the dead?

Is it comedy to cause panic in a crowded area?

Nothing is absolute. And comedy is no exception.

There is humor in everything. There has to be.

Limits. Humans should have limits or we are an uncivilized barbarian society.

Everything’s on the table or nothing is..

Your limit is subjective…

Everything has limits, but I think anything can be joked about if done well.

Who is in charge of the allowing? It doesn't look like Trump can take humorous criticism. At all.
Remember when Obama made a laughing stock out of him at that press dinner years ago? LOL

Comedy should push boundaries but not at the cost of punching down on people who are already hurting.

My motto is: punching up to people and institutions in power is always allowed. Kicking down to people who are already powerless should be avoided. Also: mock choices, not circumstances.

Who cares? If you’re thin skinned, turn the channel or don’t go. You can preview a comic on YouTube; so, there really aren’t any excuses for your complaints about the content.
