No goddammit you are not too sensitive. People are merely desensitized to a basic fundamental element of our psyche to protect our young and laugh at the very notion somebody could be offended because they themselves are not.
Oh! This too! I forgot to say this, but this person hit it on the nail.
-Also know that half the people who say "I laughed" are often just replying out of a built-in urge to oppose any point of view that has the word "offensive" in the title. It's due in equal parts social desensitization, the inherent desire to be defiant, and ignorance.
-To the credit of this site, I'm glad to see only a handful of people saying anything like that. And who knows? They could be part of that other half that just finds it funny. God knows why, but to each their own. Just so long as they don't shoot a baby for laughs I don't care what they find funny. Anyway, quoter hit it on the head.

Being offended (actually taking it personally and feeling bad) by a joke is a sure sign of stupidity. Unless, of course, the joke was stupid and unfunny, like this one.
My thoughts exactly, a joke should be taken as just that, a joke. Whats worse is being offended on someone else's behalf when you have no idea what its actually like. Unless you have had someone close to you have had their baby get shot then I see no real reason to be offended. And yeah, my major complaint as it wasn't actually funny. I was was expecting an offensive joke and it failed on both counts. Shame.

I burst out laughing several times, but there were gunshots followed by sudden silence, so yea, someone's bound to take issue with it.

*BANG* Person:Took care of it!
Crowd: Yay!

EDIT: Just saw the banned Simpsons bit, seems Mr. Burns was put in charge of animation.

Ok Before commenting or voting watch the video.

http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1946484

Now my Question is, Do you find this slightly morbid/disturbing/dark.

i honestly was extremely uncomfortable watching this...

EDIT: ok a lot of people don't really find it that offensive it seems, i don't know maybe im just sensitive about the subject of murdering babies, :p
Anyway anyone care to offer their opinion on this banned Simpsons intro?

I'm the guy that sings "Everybody punch a baby and have a really good time." while smacking the babies in Doom 3 and laughing maniacally. I'd be something of a hyprocrite if I found this at all offensive. I thought the very end was funnier than the rest of it though.

"Took care of it."

"Yay."

CollegeHumor video (audio, really... could have put some picture montage up or something there, you know, made some kind of effort): Not funny, not offensive. Too dumb to be funny or offensive. Not even eye-roll worthy.

Simpsons/Banksy video: Pitch black satire, me likey alot. Fox turned Groening's Simpsons into a money making machine decades ago, so the point is old but still well done. Would have been funnier if the underground workers were wearing "Obey" t-shirts.

Suppose both videos are the same brand of humor, but the style and execution of the Simpsons opening just seems so much better. It's a franchise I used to love so I am probably biased.

Eh, it wasn't that evil. I have a dark sense of humor, so I guess stuff like this comes to mind every day. I did find the "My gun! NOOOOOOOO!!!" funny.

Not offending at all. In fact I laughed at both of them.
But then, I love dark humour.
I'm a horrible person...

I actually thought the most depressing part was when that guy shot himself out of panic.
