I hate jokes about 9/11... every joke has the tendency to crash and burn.
"I didn't get the joke at first, but then it hit me like a plane," the joke was so dark a cop almost shot it.
9/11 Humor

Explanation
Experiment
The joke plays on the tragic event of 9/11 by using the imagery of a plane crashing to describe a joke that 'crashed and burned.' The second part is a dark pun, adding to the morbid humor by referencing the plane 'hitting' the person and the joke being so dark that a cop would react with force.
