Not only have I taken offense at those eomics, I have also taken offense at Monday's eornic about the white erosses. Alnc White, a junior, and Erik Powers, a senior, were both students last year during the outrage that ensued following the destruetion of the crosses. I fail to see how a comie depieting the burning of the crosses (misinter preted as "T"s) and the tasteless remark "I think the Keebler Elves have joined the Klan!" can be funny. Abortion, as is evident, is a very sensitive issue, and race relations. as is also evident, is not much "safer" for the eontent of a comic strip. As a Catholic, I was offended by the lack of respect given to the cross, and as a human being I was offended by the lack of respect for a differing view on an issue so serious as abortion. Furthermore, I am amazed that a newspaper serving a Catholic commu nity would publish a comic such as Jockular, especially as humor, beeause of its morally questionable eontent. I am also surprised that the artists, despite outcry by mem bers of the community, have continued to produce base less comics that are, at best, ill-suited for print media, and (sometimes) offensive.
