I found it particularly amusing when the "thought police" opted
to do away with all of the "violent" scenes in cartoons and
movies.
Really?  Was seeing Wiley J Coyote get his clock cleaned 10
times each minute really harmful?  Or, Daffy Duck's head being
blasted (by Elmer or a clever Bugs)?  Or, Hector/Spike/Butch
tearing a new *sshole in Sylvester?
Or, Kato and The Inspector "going at it" without restraint?
Or, Moe slapping Curly/Shemp/Joe/Larry silly?
Now, that violence (and more) is treated as normal (though the
cartoons have gone down the shitter; they're just not as
"clever")
