No, they shouldn't. Debian is not about censorship. I personally find the
quoted joke offensive, but I'm not about to say he doesn't have a right to
include it if he so chooses to.
If you don't have a thick enough skin to deal with the fact that the world
is a big place, and not everyone thinks alike, then perhaps you should roll
your own distribution.

Similar to what another poster said, the day Debian starts censoring is the
day I stop advocating Debian as a distro.
