I think that picture is very old, clichéd, and annoying. Sort of like the timeline pic.

The Gates == Hitler pic is also old, but it's a lot funnier, so it gets more leeway. The Special Olympics one is just old and tired, though, in addition to having the potential to offend people.

I'm incredibly hard to offend; but I wouldn't use that image for fear of offending others unintentionally.
Yeah, it's an offensive image; I mean, what if somebody close to you is retarded? It's no laughing matter.
The message is well recieved, and could be amusing, but it's in very poor taste.

It's pretty mean spirited toward kids with down's syndrome and other disabilities but I don't really find it "offensive".. just typical.

The "Special Olympics" is a great organization. It is very sad to be using it in that way. The picture itself is not offensive, just the way it is being used.

Yep, it's offensive...
It's one of those things what you laugh at when you are a kid, and pray to God doesn't happen when it's your turn to have kids...

A song that makes you feel horrible to laugh at. He's got other funny stuff too.

The Special Olympics has started calling me asking for donations. Of course, I always say no because I never have any extra cash.
It is funny because a year or so ago I used to get a little ticked by the number of companies/organizations calling me to ask for donations. Now I just wish I had money to help because I understand that most of the people calling for money to actually need the donations to help do good, and they are not funded by the government, at least not well enough.

Hey, look, you missed that knee-jerk sarcasm in my post. Calling people mentally challenged over the Internet. For shame.
