I have noticed jokes and people making light of pedophilia and child rape.

In the movie "The Hangover", the most beloved and notorious characters in the film (Alan, played by
Zach Galifinakas) was a pedophile. There were several jokes about his desire to sexually abuse
children, and his fellow actors passed no judgment and barely said a word. Alan even took
an infant's hand and pretended to masturbate the child, and insinuate that the child was pleasuring
himself, "See! He likes it."

I found this to be so offensive because they made this character lovable and hilarious.

I'm sure pedophiles all over the world were happy that they were being shown in a positive light, but
it made me really angry.
