Comedians have an unwritten rule that says "don't punch down", meaning 'don't make fun of people who are underprivileged or unfortunate'. This rule tends to apply in society too. When a comedian doesn't follow this unwritten rule, the audience will generally not play along. Social awareness is all that's needed, and 99% of people are aware of how it works. Actual laws are not feasible, and are open to abuse.

I'm not saying that at all, but when someone says something to me or others which isn't insulting then whats the issue?

90% of racism in the West is insulting, and is intended to be so, and is overwhelmingly directed toward dark skinned people.

I ask you the same question as I asked another poster but they ran away. Would you be insulted if someone said you were white? Assuming you are
