none of this PC crap that IMHO is 100x worse for kids.
I have watched some of my favorites and they have been edited out of recognition
:cry:
The liberals are afraid of too much violence but they want to teach sex in schools during the first grade.
By the way I don't remember drive by shootings and killing somebody for their shoes when I was a kid. But maybe was sheltered
I sat down with my (then) two year old daughters to watch Looney Tunes one evening. I realized maybe they weren't ready for some of the images they saw. Sylvester chasing Tweety with a knife, Slowpoke Rodriguez shooting Sylvester in the face.

Of course I knew the difference between fantasy and reality, but they still get a little shaken up when they see some things cartoon characters do to each other. Call me old fashioned, but I'd like for them to hold on to their innocence just a bit longer. I of course enjoyed every minute of it.

Mista Bukit: Did you grow up in Aurora? I sure remember gang violence in Aurora as I was growing up. I was accused (and later threatened) by "ganstas" of being a Skinhead because I wore a leather jacket and rode a skateboard. Funny. I'm not even white.

:mrgreen:
I did grow up in Aurora and went to Hinkley so I'm probably dating myself but the only gang problems I remember were between the cowboys (goat ropers) and the hippie freaks. Fistfights were the norm then.
I can understand your concern about small children (since I have none) I can be the "expert". If I did have children I am not sure how I would handle the TV, because I find a lot I see offensive and my wife is even more sensitive than I am.
Now that I think about it a lot of the Loony tunes probably went over my head when I was small because now I find some of the humor was adult oriented.
