Rape and retards: Doug Stanhope talks Daniel Tosh and humor in PC USA

A blogger's account of a recent performance from comedian Daniel Tosh has gone viral and the Internet is ablaze with criticism regarding the stand-up comic's alleged remarks about raping women. In the realm of humor, is there such a thing as going too far? Comedian Doug Stanhope doesn't think so, and offers RT his take on making people laugh in America's all-too politically correct climate.

If the bill hicks, doug stanhopes and jim jeffries of the world could be our leaders, the world would be a better place.

Opinion... While it is respected... I must disagree. The five guys raping this lady comeback was hilarious in itself. She had to have had an idea of what she was getting into before she spent her hard earned money to attend the show. It's not like Tosh's rape jokes are exclusive to his stand-up acts. He's let rape jokes fly on his show from time to time. So she should have known, and if she's a sensitive person she should have kept her simple ass at home.

not jeffries. Love him. makes me lough almost more than anyone else, but he REALLY shouldnt be in charge of anything

[Harald Obermair]

Girls...please...rape jokes are funny!! Please go cook me something nice and give me a blowjob!!!!

[kroswit]

I can totally see that. I can also see how it can be applied both ways.

[Eve jepsen]

sometimes people are bitter an controlling and trying to pass that off as war of the sexes.

[kroswit]

I'm glad you added that last part.People don't even pay attention to it. It's like I say "Rape is only funny when it happens to men in prison." I just say that to make people think abut their double standards.

[pianospawn1]

Exactly, the jokes are funny because they're ridiculous, simple.

[Tre Richardson]

I don't think you understand how this woman was a fucking retard. Did you read the entire story? Tosh was being sarcastic with her. Everyone picked up on that except for her.

[RedGunBullets]

yeah the nwo is forcing people by the gun to his show :)
