There are somethings that people just shouldn't joke about!

With all of the talk about sexual assault these days, it's unfortunate that some people chose to make jokes about it. I was especially surprised at the number of women who not only made jokes but got really upset at people who pointed that jokes about sexual assault are inappropriate. I'm sorry but I can't find anything funny about sexual assault, especially after my four year granddaughter and six year old grandson were sexually assaulted by the 13 year old boy who lived next door to them. That was about 20 years ago, but they were never the same afterward. Their happy childhood was taken away. I'm sure there a million stories just like mine. The heartache and the anger never go away. There a hundreds of millions of positive things to joke about, why not avoid subjects that cause others more pain?

I'm sure you are right about this. Making light about a serious matter gives the impression that it is not really important and that the victims should also be able to laugh it off and pretend that it never happened. No way.
