I just saw part of a cartoon on Cartoon Network. Mark my words, the hispanic organizations will have this off the air within 60 days.

Masked hispanic wrestlers that have voices that sound like bad hispanic impressions. Once the LULAC folks see this they are going to have fits.

Oh, I loved Speedy G.
I watch anything that the little one watches. This one was a little too violent so it's off the list. Some of it surprised me because it's not PC at all so I watched it on another TV. It looked like the names in the credits were about 99% non-hispanic. I grew up in Houston and I'd bet at some point the hispanic "leaders" raise heck about this. I'm not saying they should. Anyone that does not like it can just change the channel. But it won't work out that way.

I have seen the show...given that I am Puerto Rican, and I hate rasslin', I still find the show hysterical. Which means some LULAC dork will protest against it.

Probably not. The show's in its second season (it's also part of the WB's Saturday morning lineup and aired there before the Cartoon Network started airing it.) Any protest would have likely started by now if one were coming.
(And no, I'm not proud that this information is taking up valuable brain space of mine.)

PC idiots never know how their protected groups really feel.
