That is a cartoon

I think he chose Gypsies as its an easy target

would he have chosen Muslims?

no

Homosexuals?

no

Transgenders?

no

and his excuse about educating people is proof positive as its bollox

any school kid who learns about the Holocaust is taught precisely who died - jews, slavs, Russians, gypsies, JW, disabled etc

to pretend otherwise is excuse-making

Im not a great fan of "travellers" as they never admit to their anti-social criminal ways (not all) but i think this is hateful and dangerous

Yes, it teaches Jimmy Carr’s fans, 30+ white males, it is acceptable to be racist, as it will earn you some social points as people laugh

We saw the threats that the South Park writers got for depicting Mohammed, I don't think anyone is going there again.

I personally don't support the joke about the Holocaust, but I just don't want it censored either.
