Too funny, everyone is too sensitive, it's a joke, take it as a joke, leave it as a joke. It's just words - get over it.

Thanks for "outing" Gilbert Gottfried (whoever he is), however do you remember this saying: "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem."? Today, TMZ became part of the problem by posting these jokes.

Just words? Hmmmm, well walk down into central LA and shout some "just words" at some gang members....see what that will get you.
Two things wrong here with this post as I see it. First, why would TMZ post this other than to stir up hate/disgust? TMZ reporting at its finest.
Second, the "comedian" is Gilbert Gottfried. Nothing funny there, just sad that he needs to grasp at this level of desperation to get noticed. And he will now be noticed, thanks to the small minds at TMZ.
TMZ....small minds think alike.

Kate,
You could not have said it any clearer. Harvey makes his living on other peoples suffering. And he squeals like the little girl he is, all the way to the bank.
The Devil has a special place in Hell for you Harvey, and your ass it the least of what will be "poked".
TMZ...,,where little minds think alike.

It's sad that some people have no sensitivity to catastrophic events. As one going through this first hand I can definitely say there is nothing funny about this continuing disaster. I'm sure those who think these jokes are okay would think differently if this all happened to them. Doubt they would be laughing then.
