I'm not suprised. WB "sanitized" all of the old classic Looney Toons years ago of all cartoon violence, stereotyping, and associated un-PC behavior. Shockingly, they're not funny anymore. 8^(

When the Cartoon network does their "June Bugs" thingy every summer, they leave out about 20 Bugs cartoons made during WW2 because of "racially insensitive" portrayals of the Japanese.

I've see n the censored ones. yeah, the Japs are portrayed as bucktoothed coke-bottle-glasses wearing shorties. So what?

The Japanese still sell Darkie Toothpaste with a Stepinfetchit caracature of a Black man on the tube. Turnabout's fair play.

And to this day they have yet to apologize for Pearl Harbor, The Rape of Nanking, chemical and bioweapon attacks in Manchuria, mistreatment of allied POWS, etc. Yet they have the crust to whine about Hiroshima and Nagasaki.....

AJ,
Can't we buy the original, un-PC versions of these WB classics somewhere?
