	    Oh really?  No need to make fun of a bunch of people getting
	killed, you say?  Tell me if the following joke format rings any
	bells:

		"These 3 [ethnics] die and end up at the pearly gates
		in front of St. Peter...(etc.)"

	Just where exactly do you want to draw the line about people
	getting killed anyway?  It strikes me as a little hypocritical
	to complain about netters making shuttle jokes when the very
	same people are allowed to crack dead jokes about JFK, Martin
	LLuther King, Gandhi, and every other famous person you can think
	of within the last 1986 odd years (with Jesus being right at the
	top of the list).  If you people are so all fired set on establish-
	ing a double standard, well then I guess that's your privilege.
	But let's at least call a spade a spade, O.K.?
