Why do offensive jokes become causes for crimes?

Question

I read some tabloids regarding crimes (particularly murder) resulting from really bad jokes, and it made me wonder why people should do that. Consequently, it is one of the questions I raised in my research, so I am going to need an answer quickly.

Answer 1

Jokes are meant to be for fun, but if it is something offensive then it usually results to crimes if not properly controlled. It is a natural reaction for a person to get angry most specially when his/her ego was badly hit, and if this anger burst, sometimes, that person losses his/her senses and can do awful things such as any form of physical injury, or worst, murder

Answer 2

If a party is offended by a joke - perhaps against their race, country, or sex - some people's hot button goes to boiling

and they are "fed Up" and going to do something about it!!!!!

********* I retell my blonde jokes as moron jokes
so only people in Congress get offended

Like Mark Twain said , Suppose you were an idiot,
and a member of Congress, but I repeat myself.

Three astronauts were bragging of their accomplishments:
Russian: We were first to set foot into space!
American: We were first to set foot on the moon!
Moron: We will be first to set foot on the sun!!!!!

The Russian and American looked at the moron and said,"WHAT?"




The Moron replied, "Don't worry, we're going at night!"
