I don't see how these cartoons are considered racist. They depict africans with spears. Africans still do tote spears in some places. The cartoon does not in any way imply that all progeny of African peoples behave in a similar fashion. Elmer Fudd is a dimwitted old white man that totes a shotgun. Not all whites are gun-toting idiots--yet nobody raises a fuss over it. Its a flippin cartoon! Its the silliest form of fiction out there. People take things far too seriously.

Yep, it's censorship. You don't see them censoring other shows that make fun of rednecks, white trash, and people from India.

well, this one in particalur I dont get. First of all, it is not depicting an African American. It is depicting someone from Africa/Australia/etc.... "bushpeople"
