you laugh at that ?
wth wth
 
Hey white knight GAF, I know TWO girls with Downs syndrome (my friend and his wife both used to work as guardians for mentally disabled people) who have said that they're "high on chromosomes", although they're fairly normal. If they can laugh about it, so can we. I don't think it's offensive.
 
I just think it's more offensive that everyone automatically assumes people with Downs don't have the ability to make fun of themselves. A lot of them are quite intelligent and aware of their situation.

Nobody is making any such assumption. It's just bad taste in general to make light of something you cannot help.

*insert extremely racist joke here*
It's bad taste, and not because black/asian/white/whatever people can't make fun of themselves

Not the same. The joke wasn't extremely cruel or insensitive, although I don't think it was very funny on a purely comedic level.
