'South Park' to Examine Life Without "Racist, Trigger-Happy" Cops
Hollywood Reporter ^ | 11-9-15 | Ryan Parker

Posted on 11/10/2015 9:17:24 AM PST by smokingfrog

"We've only had a Whole Foods for a month and already we don't need cops."

The town of South Park has come a long way since it was granted a Whole Foods, becoming much more PC.

And in Wednesday's new episode, "Naughty Ninjas," the show will do away with "racist, trigger-happy" cops roaming the town.

"The ever more PC citizens of South Park decide that they no longer need a police force," according to Comedy Central. "As the first American town to get rid of their cops, they plan to celebrate their advanced sensibilities with a PC Carnival."

Season 19 has been one continuous storyline about the quiet Colorado mountain town becoming more PC and touching on issues like gender identity and crushes among same sex school children. But it is still South Park; raunchy and never holding back on the jokes.

Sorry, but SP is about one of the last bastions of non-PC biting satire left in this country.

Sure there are things they do that piss me off as a conservative, but it is generally less than 10% of the time.

The kooky left gets a lot more skewing and when they do, I love it.

And btw, who do you think adjusted the political lexicon and gave us the ManBearPig quest as a joke and synonym for AGW?

I don’t watch South Park anymore, but I do recall reading about an episode (I can’t remember which one) that presented Bush in a somewhat favorable light.

So some liberal reporter asked the show’s creators about it: Don’t you know that that episode made Bush look good? (Like it was some sort of mistake.) The creators replied that making Bush look good was their intention.

I loved the episode where the homeless were wandering around begging for “Change” so Cartman led them to California with promises of free stuff.

Well there's "Token" for one.

Trey’s not a Christian, but he got in a good slam at atheists....

“but of all the bad religious stories... the silliest one i’ve ever heard is ‘there’s this universe and its expanding and its all going to collapse on itself and we’re all here... just cause’”.

I understood.

I liked the surreality of the autocorrected original.
