Somewhat tasteless joke about the McVeigh execution

[Phokus]

Note: Although i'm somewhat against capital punishment, i found this humorous (i keep on laughing everytime i read it, damnit!):



<< 33 armed guards were on hand just in case any radical anti-government group decided to try to rescue the man. However, Porthos, Athos, and Aramis failed to materialize. >>



This was taken from a &quot;fake news&quot; brief on McVeigh's execution. You won't get the joke unless you know who the 3 musketeers are

Even though I know who the 3 Musketeers are, it still isn't funny to me...and I was prepared to laugh at McVeigh. You disappoint me

 

[Alienwho]

/me also finds a lack of humor in this

The Musketeers were sworn to protect the king of France. Was McVeigh French?

 

[Phokus]

Bah, only ATers could be so uptight as to not get a joke like this. Back to SA forums for me.

<< The Musketeers were sworn to protect the king of France. Was McVeigh French? >>



Lol, no, it's just poking fun at the fact that nobody gave a damn about McVeigh's life, and the musketeers are known to rescue people out of impossible situations.

Edit #2: Sigh, it's no fun if i have to explain the whole joke in its minute details... the funny lies in the sarcasm of the musketeer statements!
GEEZ PEOPLE, LETS GET WITH THE PROGRAM HERE!

Oh, and last night, the SAers were debating what Timothy McVeigh would have for his last meal, and one guy was like:



<< Lethal Injection Antidote? >>



I think i wet myself after that one

May the lord fogive me...

 

[Phokus]

WTF, another double post, arghghhhh

 

[Alienwho]

I find no humor in it because I wasn't aware that the 3 muskateers rescued obviously guilty people that kill women and children.

 

[GasX]

Overheard in the anteroom to the execution chamber:

&quot;Damn it, I hate it when a plan doesn't come together...&quot;

 

[GasX]

ROFL @ Alienwho

<< find no humor in it because I wasn't aware that the 3 muskateers rescued obviously guilty people that kill women and children. >>

BAH, i think i'll stick with SA when it comes to funny stuff and do the political debates here.

You people must be 50+ years old

[Phokus]
