Part of what you said contradicts the OP.
To make fun of someone because of their differences if not PC, and you implied the people are, the rest fits right though.
I can't think of anything witty or amusing to write here -

Yes, I agree with Bohemianism. Do you even know what PC stands for? It does not fit this
at all
. To pick on someone because of how different they are is anything but PC; someone who's PC (politically correct) would tell everyone to STOP picking on him and treat him as an equal, because he can't help his state and it's just mean and demoralizing. Basically the OP.
I've never seen the term used so wrong before.

I think he probably was always a bit "off" but look at this 1990 spot on letterman.

He's pretty animated, but not quite as all over the place. Could be a function of aging.

"It is true that severe head trauma impacts a person's personality, but you making a post telling people to stop making fun of him won't do anything. It was stupid of him to not wear a helmet anyway. "
Yeah, because just letting the insults go on would be a-ok amirite?
Never say:- Ur just jealous of

He was always hyper. And fond of mugging for the camera. And drugs are nothing new. But after the head trauma he changed. A lot.
My father had Organic Mental Illness. He was also an alcoholic prior to the accident that cost him so much of his brain. So I can understand Gary. Poor guy.

its awful that people are being so ignorant. He isn't a horrible person, he isn't a murderer, he isn't hurting anyone, yet people are so ignorant, when they dont even know the facts about his trauma. He hasn't been acting THAT bad lately, he seems to be energetic, friendly, and eccentric, but people are so quick to judge him, calling him crazy and weird and a loser for the way his personality has changed, yet they don't know the details. It is amazing how ignorant,condesending pricks people have become in this society its sad.

It
is
awful. But ignorance is excusable in a way. It is those who know but still think it is funny to be stupid annoy me.
As I said, my father had brain damage. A veteran of WWII, Korea and Vietnam, he deserved a better type of 'latter years.' And when I heard him being slighted it was time to tour fist city. But even then, he was wise enough to teach me I should just pity those idiots.

Gary Busey has lived the dream. He is a good actor and one of my favorites, and I do not give a rats ass what anyone thinks about it if negative. I have even heard he's hard to work with. So what, some people are. If I can ever advance to a certain level, I'll hire him in a heartbeat. Busey Rocks.

It is like kids at school, you can have an illness (anything from epilepsy to diabetes to something more visible such as Mild Brain Damage) or you can just be different than to those who consider themselves "cool".
Not just at school it stops however, it can occur after school and why? Simple, because a lot of people in this world are uncaring, insensitive bullies who love to pick on people they find a threat to their existence, to their way of life not realising they are not bothering those individuals AT all. They also try to cover up their own problems and yes, most people who point and poke fun at others have far more pressing issues than those they dare to insult.
They may be to ignorant or full of themselves to admit it but why do you think they hang around in packs? Because on their own they are intimidated, they want to feel secure and get approval from their "friends".
Bullies of all forms are cancerous growths in this universe, Gary Busey has had to endure a lot of snickering because of his biking accident he had in '88 causing him to act "way out there".
If people would just grow up, take a long hard look at themselves in the mirror and actually realised EVERYONE had feelings rather than point and make tactlessb68 jokes, this world would be a better place.unfortunately, with all of the egotistical idiots who walk around like they are God's gift, no, believe me you are not, you are more like The Juggling Jackasses.

I think people are not necessarily making fun of him, just finding humor in the situation. And although he brain injury has magnified his behavior, he has always been this way. He is believed to also have ADHD and has always been a little "wacky" since childhood.
