"Rude" humor?

"Scandalous" submissions?

Maybe I'm missing something here.  You can't tolerate "humor which
puts down" yet you have written "rude" humor and "scandalous" submissions.
Perhaps you (and/or others) can enlighten the rest of the group with 
some examples?

I further fail to see how the *one* joke that set you off can be 
"associated with the persecution and murder of races". Perhaps you
can enlighten the group with this one as well.
