This is the most ridiculous thread i have seen in a while. Why exactly should we be up in arms that a them park, (mostly a child-hood affair) decided to not show rape as reason for humor?

They aren’t changing the history books last i checked.

I’m only taking this semi seriously, as I did invoke Pirates of The Pancreas which itself is a commentary on how ridiculous it is to be upset over a ride based on pirates in the first place. I should point out adding Jack Sparrow and other movie elements to the ride also generated a lot of controversy in Disney theme park fan circles.
Nobody ever complains about that lady pirate portrait, (who happens to be the very popular redhead getting bid on in the auction) or the real human skull in one scene of the ride though. 😉
