I wouldn't say it was funny, although there were bits of it that were so desperate that you couldn't help laugh. One of the three people featured was a lass who lives in Bristol, she had a really positive outlook despite the severity of her illness and I have to say she dealt with the situation in a really good humoured way. The other two weren't really that nice at all, mind you one of them was only 11 years old, both of them were a real nightmare for their parents.

No, it's not funny to mock.

However, have you seen Phoenix Nights when Potter (Peter Kay) is playing paintball in his wheelchair? It's funny, but it probably shouldn't be. Can we laugh because he is not genuinely afflicted? Would it be less funny if it was a real wheelchair-bound actor getting pasted?

If someone in a wheelchair choses to laugh at themself that is their perogative.It's not for me or twats like you to laugh at them.

I hope you don't have to encounter any sort of disability in your sad little life ever but then again if you did it would be hilarious wouldn't it? :nono:

Come on cheer up mate! I dont think anyone on here means any harm by it, in fact if you read my earlier post I said I felt sorry for the little blighters.

I know we shouldnt go around taking the p!ss out of people less fortunate than ourselves, but I'm sure there are things that people can take the p1ss out off me for if you knew me.

Spelling included.

:thumbsup:

You know f*** all about me and i've had more 'encounters with disability' than i care to mention here because no one cares and i don't want to embarrass you.

Now, the way some of us deal with the darker, harder sides of life is to laugh at them whether you are on the inside looking out or the outside looking in. So don't give it all the holier than thou shit because I don't even think you believe what you're saying yourself!

No holier than thou shit at all.
