Date Rape Issue on Maury Povich - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice Johnson · 05-29-2007, 01:23 PM

I was watching The Maury show, and he did a segment called, "Wild Things Caught On Tape!" and in one part, he said, "In this scenario, a guy drugged women and had sex with them. You can clearly tell that the women are knocked out while he is raping them.. The audience erupts with laughter. Getting raped while you are unconscious is "funny"..........................

How about when Maury had a topic on a person's phobia. I think it was about a woman who was totally afraid of clowns because of her childhood and Maury brings out a clown and the woman turned around and started crying and the whole audience just laughed their heads off. I thought that was really mean.

How the "F" is getting raped funny?

This isn't the only time the audience the audience laughed at something serious. In another "Shocking videos!" episode, two young people, obviously a man and his girlfriend around their 20's were on top of a car, that was obviously sinking. The man called emergency in a scared voice, saying, 'come get us. Our car is sinking and we're on top of it. We can't swim." The audince erupts into laughter.

I was like WTH?

They're laughing while these young people are about to drown?

I almost felt like crying when i saw this. I'll bet if it were a man and his wife in their 40's, no one would be laughing. they'd probably would be saying, 'Oh, my, god!" In a worried, shocked, scared voice. I think Maury or whoever was the guest speaker for this tape said something like, "This is what happens when you get drunk." But how the hell would they know if these people were drunk? They sure didn't seem drunk to me in the video.:They seemed just really (soberly) scared. They could have gotten hit
by another car, that made them fall into the river, for all Maury and/or guest speaker knew.
