Okay so I am writing a paper with this question as the topic:
Is there a fine line between what is controversial and what is just some truth that people don't want to hear?
(particularly in the field of comedy)
so do you guys know any examples of comedic material that is true yet simultaneously considered controversial?

See if you can guess the comedian this purportedly came from:
Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use. The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants! That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down.
Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the border. When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq. Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military. Give him a soldier's pay whil e he's there and tax him on it. After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country. He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot.
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves. If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo. Problem solved. If you think this is a good solution to both the problems, forward it to your friends.
Viva la Red, White & Blue!

There's no fine line. It's the same thing.
