- A Buddhist pulls out a gun. "Whoa", the vendor exclaims, "I thought you guys were about inner peace!" The Buddhist replies: "This is my inner piece."
- Q: Why don't blind people skydive? A: Because it scares the hell out of their dogs.
- It's too easy to read this as making fun of blind people, even if it doesn't really.
- Q: Why were the Native Americans here first? A: They had reservations.

- Implies that the "reservations" predate colonization, which is untrue.
- Despite no obvious ill intent, this one has at least a couple of problems:
Funny, but still problematic:
- A blind man walks into a bar... and a table... and a chair...
- This one is actually still kind of funny, even though it is overtly making fun of the handicapped, and I'm not sure why. I think it's partly because it's really more of a joke on the "walks into a bar" joke-template than about laughing at the blind man.
