Not to mention, he's fucking hilarious.

Not talking about his comedy, if it were just that I'd shrug my shoulders and say "he's in the wrong profession" and then ignore him.  It's the vile comments he's made about downs syndrome people, women and lots of others outside of comedy which have turned me into actively hating him.

Are you sure that wasn't part of the comedy?  Just because he doesn't say them on a stage doesn't mean they aren't jokes.  What sort of things do you think Ricky believes about people with downs syndrome and women?
