When did mocking handicapped children become acceptable?

After seeing yet another picture of a handicapped child being used a joke in bbv i made this post

[**** bbv never actually posting in here again, i dont think i could look at myself in the mirror if i keep posting here. The humour just gone too far now, laughing at kids with down syndrome?seriously? I know most of you think your being edgy but anyone getting a kick outta that pic, is just wrong in the head

I can't in all good conciousness keep posting where the new in thing is laughing at people born with handicaps sorry, and mods need a look at themselves here.. I know bbv is the dumping ground but how far is this going to go? Are we trying to make this 4chan?

was just wondering why mods let the constant use of autism jokes and pictures of children with down syndrome go on in bbv?


this is an example of what i am talking about

Spoiler:


Maybe im being soft skinned but i feel extremely angry when people are posting images of children with down syndrome, with 'witty captions' I know bbv is meant to be bad but come on its too far.

The funny thing is people got banned for using sigs as this apparently tilted and annoyed people, but the users who post images like the one above are applauded for their comic wit

So i genuinly want to know is this me over-reacting and this kinda thing is normal or is this just a bbv phase that only a few have jumped on

ps i have been posting since 2010 so am not new to bbv

You're over-reacting imo.

This is very tame by internet standards.

Re: When did mocking handicapped chilldren become acceptable

did you report the posts? it's offensive and inappropriate and people who post it are *******s, but if it's allowed in bbv, don't read bbv if that stuff bothers you.

Ok, relevant question. Why did you wait some hours after Mike Haven removed all posts regarding that picture to start a thread in ATF?

firstly i dont spend every waking minute i have on here checking forums and posting. I have something called a life, so sorry i didnt insta reply

Also how am i meant to know whats been removed when i clearly stated in the releveant thread i won't be posting in bbvanymore. Are you really that egotistical to think that although i won't be posting i still will be reading yours and your little friends amusing posts?

and its irrelvent if its been removed its time sanctions get dished out for people posting that stuff.

I don't see how posting childish crap like thoese images and screaming autisic in every post has any place in a poker forum even in a sub section.

Do you know that those who posted the pic weren't infracted or banned?
