Whats your stand on AIB's Roast? - Page 8

What is pissing me off, is the way people are reacting to it. Firstly, there was a clear disclaimer that this was for adults, and it would be VERY offensive. Heck, even KJo admitted that it'd be offensive, and those who can't take it, should leave (or you know, turn it off). Also, what's with people getting defensive about the jokes cracked? Seriously, if the panelists, KJo, Ranveer and Arjun had no issues with the insults, who're we to care? Also, if you're bothered about such stuff destroying our culture and all that jazz, you've never spoken to the youth of today. Not saying that every sentence of theirs is peppered with cusses and MCs and BCs, but no one's an angel. Seriously, there are more pertinent issues in India. Why can't we focus on those, instead of a show where adults consented to be insulted?

Thank god. I know a lot of moderate Muslims that actually supported the act. Isn't that some crazy bullshit on their part?

Exactly...I don't know what these pro AIB people want?? That now in a democracy people should not even protest by writing?? No freedom of speech now??

There is a big difference between a strongly worded opinion column or petition and an FIR. The former expresses dissent with people's choices, the latter denies people their choices.

U r talking as if fir means they r being imprisoned.

They can state their side in court 😊

Freedom of speech!!! They should never go to court over some jokes!!! Maybe the problem lies with the Indian legal system for making it so easy to file complaints and cases against everyone. But regardless, filing a complaint and asking for inquiry and investigation over some jokes goes against freedom of speech.

The problem is not that other people are criticizing the show or AIB. The problem is that there is a threat of legal action, in the world's largest democracy.

That is what i am saying...atleast they are not going shooting these AIB people...they are using the legal channel...they have their rights as a citizen to complain if they don't approve of something ...why should their rights be denied to them...If at all it goes in court (which I don't think will happen,,,it will be dismissed before that)...don't u think that the courts will listen to BOTH THE SIDES??? On one hand if u talk about freedom of speech...freedom of rights ...then let them do what they want...If its unjust the courts will deny it...
