Liberal idiots. Isis should bomb N.Y. again and then we’ll see what this lame poll suggests.

I am so proud of our America recently. Finally most of America is working together to fight terror. Good on SNL, They just proofed that America fights back. If there are people who did not laugh, well only thing I can tell them is, stop being cowards. How dare some of this cowards show fear to ISIS. Real Americans are more than happy to send our enemies to which ever god they please.

I watched..and thought “funny or insulting”???..Hmmm…well..I didn’t laugh so it wasn’t all that funny….I went “what?” with a little – let me emphasize a little smirk on my face but didn’t really laugh..then thought…great – a few mentally challenged kids will see this and think “Cool – I bet I can join ISIS too! Looks like it’ll be COOL!” What a waste of two minutes.

Neither. Far from offensive just not funny. What’s funny is the sillyness of the debate going on around this skit.

SNL IS GENERALLY NOT VERY FUNNY OR CLEVER, only funny maybe ten minutes out of each hour

Until and unless people begin laughing at ISIS and other terrorists they will always be a monster and people will fear them. Laughing at bullies makes them nothing more than little bullies. Laugh at them. Ridicule them, do not give them any importance.

So many “offended” people. Only a narcissist would think the offence they take “does” anything at all. It just doesn’t, go watch your TV and stop pretending you know anything about a fiercely complicated and violent situation. We should not be involved in the proxy wars of the middle east. Period.

There is a great commercial for you, look up bean engineering vs terrorist ingenuity, or something like that – has a payoff you will love.

Draws the perfect line between giving a hard time to overly sappy automobile ads which use the military and patriotism to sell cars and whatever kind of parenting drives teenage girls to want to join Isis.

I don’t find it so humorous as I find it gives pause to consider ISIS and their recruitment measures. Disaffected youths from both Europe and various places in the U.S. are attempting to join ISIS; much like the disaffected youth of Europe and the U.S. attempted to join the Communists and the Soviet Union. Too many young people seem to see ISIS through the same sort of lens that the characters in Warren Beatty’s film “Reds”, saw the world.

I found it offensive; in NO way did it mock ISIS, and by the way to the person who said that people who support ISIS would be offended and not those who want this evil group taken down, you are so wrong! ISIS needs to be destroyed, and making a skit where an American joins the group and they ride off under the “death to America” slogan, is reprehensible! To really and truly mock them would have been more like the Shark Tank skit they did a while back. In the end, they were captured! If they would have wrecked or been taken in to custody in the end and the dad arrested, then I would have laughed. They were victorious in the skit! How is that mocking them?!

If more people actually did find it funny than offensive, then why are you highlighting the negative feedback? What’s the point of your story then?

If I had to guess, I would say that the people that want ISIS destroyed find this funny… Its the people aligned with ISIS’s beliefs that are upset about them being mocked.
