why do people make rape jokes?

like, someone will be like " shut up or ill rape you!" to one of their friends or something. or they'll be like "whatever go get raped". i dont know, something along those lines. but anyways, why do people do that....? rape is a very serious thing. it scars that person for life, & even kills people.how is that funny? i dont think it is at all. whenever someone makes a joke like that i always tell them to shut up or i explain to them why they shouldnt make those types of jokes. someone, please, tell me why people do this?
no, ITS NOT JUST A JOKE. it's serious. when people make jokes about racism, or bush , they're jokes that aren't about DEATH and PAIN. sure, when they're taken to the extreme level, those things can be. but otherwise, its not a life or death situation, you know? when people joke about rape, people are joking about pain. people are joking about possible death. how low, sick, & twisted do you have to be to say , "oh, its just a joke." how is that funny?
ok, with the you're gay, you're retarded thing, once again its not the same . being gay or having a mental problem isnt about pain & death. rape is. it's different.
