It has got to silly these days with everyone taking everyone way too seriously. Look at the cartoon incident recently that the Muslins were up in arms about. If a religious group can't see the funny side of something as light hearted as a cartoon designed just to light heartedly make fun of something and they cannot see the funny side of it then there is something seriously wrong with that culture and religion, that thats a discussion for another time and place.
Quoted for total agreement. Here's a link to a page with all of the cuts that were made to Looney Toons over the years: Looney Toons cuts. It's truly frightening what some of the things that got cut were. I got angrier and angrier as I read that list. It's just like you want to take the person or people who decided to cut some of those harmless gags and smash their head into a cinder block repeatedly.
