Makes rape joke. According to poll in that link only offends 1/4 of people.

Obviously the women had never seen any of his shows or heard of him before....

Hes got a long way to go before he gets as offensive as George Carlin. If you go to a comedy show you should expect to be offended, thats the charm of a good comedian.

I agree dark humor can be funny, but if what the article said was true, he may have crossed the line with that statement towards the woman.

I don't think so.  He was making a joke.  I'm going to sound like an a**hole, but it would actually be kind of funny (more ironic, I guess) if she did get raped.  If you have ever seen his show, it doesn't really come as a huge surprise.

I think people are getting (even more) stupider for making this fuss because of a joke ::)

When you go to a Tosh show, you have to expect some rape jokes. That's what he does.
It's like going to a Who concert and complaining the music is too loud.

These are the kinds of thoughts that kept me out of the really good schools.

He could have been more clever about saying it then just blurting it out though.
