There is something you cannot joke about
(By Zhijian Luo)
There is something you cannot joke about - Jimmy Kimmel
There are some protests against Jimmy Kimmel through several states. I went
to three events which took place in NYC. I emphasize my attendance to
strongly advocate that there is something cannot be joke at. Mr. Kimmel
joked (maybe he is not joking) about the most precious thing to me including
the life of my family. In the show Mr. Kimmel used a joke related context
to express “kill everyone in China”. Even it is from the mouth of a kid,
it is not fun. It should not be aired. It is much less fun for him to follow
up to ask ”should we allow Chinese to live”? My life is my privilege like
others and it is not something you gifted to me and can try to take back.
In his “apology” on Oct 28, I get more annoyed because from what he said I
read “It is ok to joke about killing Chinese.” When you are being funny,
please do not offend. Mr. Kimmel might not know it offend us or he might not
know how much it upsets me(us). As a father, I worried that “will someone
joke to Joshua about killing”? As a result, I stand out in protest and hope
him will truly understand it is a serious matter.
When watching the video first time, I did not think too much. However, I get
annoyed after further discussing with friends with elder kids in school.
Children are taught not to say things like this from their early days of
school. Mr. Kimmel should know this. He should have not aired the episode.
Some people other than Chinese might not feel be offended and think it is a
joke. But not all think it is. When I handed out the leaflet at ABC
headquarter in upper west, several people passed by to say that it is
unforgettable. They mentioned they are Jews. Only the people who have
suffered the pain will understand there is something cannot joke about.
In today’s time square protest, there was a German came by to say it is a
joke. He said it is ok for Mr. Kimmel to air “kill all Germans”. I envy
about his confidence and comfortableness to say this. From what he said he
is very confident it is impossible to kill all Germans, also he knows no one
will joke it in public. Basically, he has two sources of confidence: first,
there will be no one (dare) joke about them; second, he is confident they
will never be the one to be killed. It is a little different to me, tons of
civilian Chinese was killed in World War II and lots Chinese get killed in
Indonesia in May 1998. If I am confident enough, I will not care if you said
to kill me face to face. So I have to protest again today and appeal not to
joke about it, a protest you will care more when you have kids.
In the protest, some people laughed at me that I cannot even get a chance to
protest in China. I feel sad about that and make me more pressure to get a
well living environment in US.
In a world still full of violence, please do not joke about killing, Mr.
Kimmel. | R**********n
