NO LAUGHING MATTER
Re: Reverend Obadiah Steppenwolfe III
saw the Reverend at the Stand in Glasgow in December. I totally understand that by entering a comedy club there is always the chance that you may be picked on.
However, when this comedian singled out and more or less based his whole act upon a young man in the crowd that had terrnrnal cancer. both myself and my friends had to walk out. There weren't many laughs and the atmosphere was rust uncomfortable.

Comedy rs subjective. and everybody has the right to Me or dislike something but I do feel that being offended and drsmrssrng an act on behalf of someone else who wasn't actually offended or upset ~ in fact gurte the opposne — is at best naive. Protecting people‘s rights is very important. but it's worth checking that people feel they need to be protected before riding off on a morai Crusade.
