I've got a grip. Prostitution and having sex with animals is illegal as well. If I had told someone twenty five years ago that "jokes" about a prostitute having sex with a horse would be on primetime TV, they might have told me to get a grip too. Well, maybe NAMBLA won't be having sex with children on TV--I was going overboard on the sarcasm--but they might be making "jokes" about it. I'm sorry but both are deprave. I don't know if the government should step in on this particular case, but Fox and its advertisers should be made aware that many people don't think this is good TV. We live in a free country but that doesn't mean there shouldn't be any standards and responsibility.

By the way, it was only TV and the horse wasn't really dead or injured

What do you think--I'm a hysterical puritanical fascist who belongs to PETA?

Yes, having sex with animals is illegal - jokes about them are not. Also, no one on the show had an sexual relations with any animal - so, in conclusion, your analogy about a NAMBLA Channel, with men having sex with young boys, was idiotic.

The proper thing to do would be to contact the station and it's advertisers. I'd only call you a hysterical puritan if you want Uncle Sammy to increase the regulation of content... ;0)
