Q. Why did RFK, Jr. while on a road trip with his family, stop on the side of the road and cut off the penis of a road-kill raccoon?
A. Because racoon pussy makes a lousy toothpick.

I'm probably the only one who doesn't get this. Someone please explain it to me. Some sort of pun?

No, you're not the only one. Me too, although I just assumed that was because it was American humour which I often don't get.

Well, I'm an American, although I haven't lived there for several decades. Are there any current US residents who can explain this? Perhaps the Original Poster?

From the Guardian a quote from RFK's diary:
"“I was standing in front of my parked car on I-684 cutting the penis out of a road killed raccoon, thinking about how weird some of my family members have turned out to be,” Kennedy wrote in the journal.
He added: “My kids waited patiently in the car.”
The story made the rounds of various news outlets. Apparently a raccoon's penis contains a long bone.

That's it. A male raccoon has a bone in the penis, like many mammals do. Believe it or not, this bone has been used as a toothpick, especially in the rural parts of southeastern U.S. I'd imagine this phenomenon is rather uncommon in other states of the U.S.
Thus, my joke was a take-off on this - a sort of thinking man's joke.
I suggest using google. Also, I now see raccoon penis bone toothpicks are for sale on various sites. I have never used one, but they seem to come highly recommended.
