The worst thing about pedophile jokes is how it turns so-called freedom of speech loving conservatives into sky screamers. Humor is an important part of the human experience. If you don't like a joke, so be it. But don't go around telling other people what they should or shouldn't find funny. That's nothing but virtue signaling.

Are these 'jokes' being put out as protective cover?

This new thing ya’ll are doing on “pedos” is so pathetically sad. Please keep it up. Ya’ll come across like a bunch of pearl clutching church nerds in some sort of summer camp inquisition.

All this feigned outrage will do is undermine the right when they complain about political correctness and the thought police, which is a shame because we need someone to push back on the looney left on that shite.
No. We don’t complain about political correctness because we think there shouldn’t be any standards of decency. We complain because PC has artificial and incorrect standards.
Removing all standards of decency is a progressive goal, and one way they do it is by instituting ridiculous and ever-changing standards of decency, to damage the entire concept of some things being held sacred and inviolable.
Don’t conflate rejection of clearly sick pedo “jokes”, like those by James Gunn, with political correctness. It’s not political correctness that restricts the proliferation of pedo jokes, it’s basic human decency.
As for Jeselniks jokes, these for the most part seem more like shock humor than the stuff Black and Gunn said.

It's the hypocrisy that gets me. If we're going to normalize pedophilia jokes in the name of comedy, then EVERYTHING should be fair game.
If a comic wants to spend his whole set making racist jokes, I better not hear one bit of outrage about it from the left. I mean that mother fricker can go up there wearing a Klan uniform, burn a cross on stage, and tell every racist joke in the book.
Since we have these new rules, the left better NOT say a fricking word about it. You cool with that?

This isn't a joke. And anyone who defends him saying "it's comedy" is sick! This man needs help! He's got issues.

I still cant believe people actually find these kind of jokes funny. And of course the first person defending it is Pecker.

What a load of horseshite. The guy is a comedian. You idiots complain about the left violating 1A rights constantly but now you're all about it because some people are making jokes you can use against them in this hyper sensitive atmosphere of offense.

These are comedians that have been doing these routines for years and everyone was fine with it until someone decided to try to bury them to score some retarded political point.

Nope. Child rape jokes are just different. Comedy is not absolute license to say whatever you want.

It is. You obviously don't know anything about comedy and I'm glad people like you don't have any actual power over this.

I disagree, however the public will turn against the ultra tasteless material. I am a bit uneasy with the rush to be the most tasteless. We reward the profane too easily.

I meant to upvote and fat fingered a down vote.
Either everything is on the table for comedy or none of it is. Blows my mind they see how insane the pc police is, then decides to become it.
