Can we petition to have your alias changed to “Francis”

No one is taking pot shots at Officer Wilson or what’s happening to him. Were taking about dark/gallows humor about a situation that appals us all.

And there’s a LOT of humor of that variety to be found here. Responding to “Hands up, don’t shoot” with “Pants up, don’t loot”, for instance.

I have a quick simple test that separates true humor from mean spiritedness. I ask myself is the joke something that they would say straight to the face of the one that they are supposedly joking about?

So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport? Proverbs 26:19
