Real News Item: A clown was arrested for raping a 12 year old girl while in full clown make-up. If convicted he could be sent to prison for life.
He made the following statement after his arrest: “Look, comedy is a very subjective art form. Some people don’t think Jerry Lewis is funny, some don’t like The Three Stooges and some people just don’t have a sense of humor about raping children. It’s all very subjective.
And it’s not fair that the police are taking one part of my act out of context. Did the cops ask about the juggling, or the balloon animals, or my funny dance? No! They only wanted to know about the rape part of the act! Of course forced sodomy sodomy on a little girl isn’t going to be funny if you don’t know the set up!!!
They say that there’s no such thing as a bad audience, but I think a lot of my best material went right over their heads! Whoosh! A really square audience. They should have been there for my ten o’clock show. I really killed during that one!
Please don’t tell the police I said that. That would just get me in even more trouble”.
- I think the rule should be that if someone actually WANTS to be a clown, priest, scout master or gym coach that should automatically disqualify them from being a a clown, priest, scout master or gym coach. Normal men don’t want to spend all their free time around other people’s children. It’s suspicious at best. In fact, we’re probably lucky that ALL of the clowns aren’t out there buggering little children.
