Little Johnny had no arms, he had no legs, a quadroplegic. The neighborhood boys came to the door and asked his mom if he could come out and play baseball. Mom gasped and said to the boys "You know he is a quadraplegic". Whereupon the leader of the boys replied "Yes Ma'am, we want him to play second base."

How's that for offensive. . . It's been around since I was a child, told to me by my father, who had had polio and no (usable) legs.

Well that's the thing Bi11Hudson. Typically it is not the disabled, or gay, or whomever it is that is the brunt of the joke, that takes offense. It is normally someone else who decides to take offense on their behalf. Those people have the worst possible disability and they don't even know it.

I had a friend who had and died of Lukemia. He had a birthday party, and came out as Gay in his last year, He through out all these Gay Jokes, and had about 30-40 of us on the floor laughing. It's always ok for the person who is/has to lay down the jokes, but for some reason it's not ok for the others to some.. I understand the hateful jokes not being accepted, but the light hearted ones, are usually told by those who are themselves... so I don't take offense. I do when it's geared to putting them down.

Pollak jokes were all the rage when I was young. My Mom told me, "if you laugh with them, they can''t laugh at you".

10-4 on the Polish jokes. My dad used to call me his dumb Pollark. He passed down his ability to laugh at one's self. Am I the only one that has made a bonehead move, then called myself an a-hole? I doubt it.
Some people just take themselves too seriously.
 
When I lived in Montana we told North Dakaotan jokes, and North Dakotans told Montana jokes. When I moved out here it became Polack jokes. They were all the same joke, just different references. Now I tell Montana jokes, I figure I have the right as it points to my heritage and I can poke fun at it if I please.

Did you hear about the Montanan that locked his keys in the car?

It took him 20 minutes with a coat hanger to get his family out.

That' was/is a Schnieder trucking joke back in the day when they couldn't get out of their own way on the interstate!!

Kind a like the new hands upon hire were all issued an extra headlight switch because they could never get in the Monfort lane!!
