But there's nothing inherently funny about autistic people.

Well, that's a matter of opinion isn't it? To the man with tourette's, there is nothing inherently funny about it.

Except that in this case, his opinion doesn't count for shit.

Anyway, if you can't laugh at yourself, what can you laugh at?

Uhm, that saying may apply for certain things like embarrassing situations or semi-serious incidents, but something like mental or physical defects can not be funny.

If you lost your legs in a car accident, would you find that humorous? If someone put a bullet in your brain and you lost the ability to control basic bodily functions, would that be funny to you?

You may be an asshole and say yes, but I guarantee that if those things happened to you, you would not be laughing. You would be constantly depressed and humiliated.

I'm going to write this in caps because you don't seem to be getting it.

NONE OF THOSE THINGS ARE INHERENTLY HUMOUROUS.

Who the fuck laughs at people in wheelchairs anyway?

IT DEPENDS ON THE INDIVIDUAL YOU FUCKING FAGGOT.

I know plenty of people who laugh at people in wheelchairs, I've met people who find autistic children or people with downs to be funny. Just because you don't find something funny doesn't mean someone else won't.

Wow you're pretty fucking stupid.

I think it is disgusting when someone laughs at another human being because of their disabilities. I mean, how would those who laugh feel if they were in the other's shoes being laughed at?
