Whether it was suggested seriously or not, the fact that it was suggested at all means it can still cause offence.
Whether or not he was the butt of the joke is irrelevant.
Ask yourself this. How would *you* feel if you had a disabled child and some comedian made a reference to them raping you? Hurt? Angry? Would it being a joke make any difference to you?
