Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam Will Not Have Guns In New ‘Looney Tunes’
LaCorte News ^ | 6/8/2020 | Damjan Tutarkov

Grouchy Looney Tunes character Elmer Fudd will no longer be hunting wabbits using his signature single-barrel hunting rifle.

Warner Bros’ reboot of the show dubbed “Looney Tunes Cartoons” that airs on HBO Max will be stripping Fudd of his gun and will instead arm him with a scythe in his pursuit of the slippery Bugs Bunny.

“We’re not doing guns,” Peter Browngardt, the executive producer of the new show, told The New York Times. “But, we can do cartoony violence — TNT, the Acme stuff. All that was kind of grandfathered in.”

Why do we need new Looney Tunes cartoons anyway, other than to sell more merchandising?

They are both racist caricatures of white people, right?

Soviet editing.

If the past was problematic, just edit it out.

All more just the need to buy the DVDs of the original ones that you would have watched on Saturday mornings on TV as a kid or even the movie theatres (for those old enough to remember that, lol). I recall reading somewhere that the DVDs of the Warner Bros. cartoons are the original ones uncut, because even by my days as a kid watching on TV (1970s and early 80s), some were apparently censored or even banned.

What about this guy? Will they disarm him too? (I would hope so, because he’s the most dangerous one in the bunch.)

Imagine doing the same in all the cops shows and all of the law enforcement shows.

Only the criminals in the shows would be allowed weapons.

But, democrats would be in denial of the real world and would likely have those shows come up with alternative, like, people pointing their fingers at the bad guys (and vice-versa), and hollering “BANG!!!”, and then telling their targets to go down and play dead. But, even pointing fingers do pretend pointing a gun, would be outlawed. So, what democrats would end up doing is turning their collective faces the other way and allow full-blown criminality to exist with no consequences.
