Bad Comedian

Our Western society is full of comedians. We have some good ones, and some bad ones. To me a bad comedian is one who makes people laugh at somebody elses expense, and I think that alot of comedians do this. A great example is from 'The Nutty Professor' where Regee, the comeidan has his audience in stitches as goes around the room making jokes about people's hair styles, weight, etc. The Nutty Professor, played by Eddie Murphy, looks very hurt and upset about this.
To me, this is a reflection of what really goes on in ourt society. I think that some comedians hurt alot of peoples feelings by making jokes about them. People may try to laugh it off, but deep down they are hurting.
There's nothing wrong with having a laugh, but when it's because of another persons, or a group of people's differences, it shouldn't be done in my opinon.

Personally, I also think that the reason why the majority of comedians have a career in stand up comedy is due to their own insecurities, and to take peoples eyes of their personal insecurties they make their audiences laugh by pointing out other peoples.
