@neptuneblue,
It wasn't a joke, but he was joking none the less.
This is fairly standard output from Oralloy, compared to what he says about Palestinian children and Meredith Kurcher and her family it's quite mild.
That's the sort of person he is, it wasn't something said in the heat of the moment, it's about par for the course, and it shouldn't be forgotten.
I doubt Oralloy is even aware of a line than can be crossed.
