I really cant think of any.
If you start censoring jokes we end up with lots of "whats the deal with airline peanuts" jokes.
I truly believe it is either all okay or none okay. Please show me a funny clip that would not offend anyone and I will find a clip that is much funnier by a more popular comic that is offensive.

Two of the greatest comics of all time, Cosby and Seinfeld, are rarely if ever offensive. Granted these two, especially Seinfeld are on a level all their own.
Most comics are offensive and heavily so and if you go to a show expect some sort offensive speech. If you go in expecting a rainbows and butterflies speech that is on you and I don't think you have a right to complain.
