Amy Schumer explains why due process for those accused of rape shouldn't be a thing in a comedy skit

This very unfunny skit makes some good points about how easily the sheeple fall for such simple tactics, but coming from a rapist it's very difficult to take seriously -- it's like OJ doing a tv ad telling people that domestic violence is bad!

Always good to see a rapist doing a sketch about rape. Why is she even allowed on tv?

How is it that these people don't understand that a conviction without a defense is meaningless? Why do we provide (very good, and expensive) lawyers to known terrorists? Because in order for a conviction to have value, it must be found in spite of the best possible defense.

It's amazing that confessed terrorist in guantanamo bay get better protection for their due process rights (when they go to court) than American college men.

Amy Schumer has apparently decided being entertaining is no longer important.

Her Comedy Central show "Inside Amy Schumer" was great for the first two seasons, but the current one is just terrible. It's clear she's deliberately trying to focus on "female humor" rather than just "humor" and it's a disaster.

She even had a skit about "sexy rodeo's" that posted a joke web URL which redirected to the "Institute for Women's Policy Research" an org dedicated to perpetuating the "wage gap" myth.

this isn't even a good parody of a legal hearing.

Not sure why nobody saw "Court of public opinion" at the beginning of the sketch. I don't think this is trying to mock the actual case.

I don't see any commentary on due process. I see it as focusing on the public's reluctance to condemn an entertainer. What part focuses on due process?

Anyone else think she should put some pants on? Those legs of hers are gross.
