Tracy Morgan's latest jokes offend the disabled
NEW YORK
In his standup act in New York last weekend, Morgan mocked the
mentally disabled, according to The New York Times. This has led to
a demand for an apology from the "30 Rock" star by a group
promoting the rights of the mentally and physically disabled.
Morgan's wisecracks reportedly included a warning not to "mess
with women who have retarded kids."
His remarks are "far too offensive to be excused as comedy,"
Peter Berns, head of The Arc, said earlier this week. He called for
an immediate apology.
Thus far, Morgan has offered no response.
Earlier this month, he apologized for a homophobic rant made
during a stand-up routine in Nashville.
