I will be the first person to admit that I have heard some good ones about people with disabilities, even though I am from this community and use a wheelchair. A good laugh is always needed. Some points: You do not hear of a disabled culture in the same sense as African Americans or Native Americans. Why? Because people with disabilities work, play and sleep wanting to be accepted by the society around them as being capable and able to function like everyone else. Not as heroes, but everyday citizens. Jokes about disabled people are a clear indication to disabled people that we are not part of society. People view us by our issues or illness. This is the same argument you hear from African Americans about jokes that affect them.
