Yup...

A few of those I've seen, and yeah, some are to a degree really bad. Though I hafto admit, I didn't even notice Speedy Gonzales cartoons got banned from TV.
 
South Park is untouchable in this case. Personally i don't mind the racial content, Cartoons are meant to be funny and subjecting it to race don't offend anyone. You see a funny looking Caucasian running around with a gun and making a fool of himself with either a western cowbow accent or some bald guy with a speech impediment and it's ok. But then you have a funny looking asian (which is a rather amusing change from the average white guy) and all of a sudden it's bad.

I would image there are people that would complain about it though. Why would they take out Speedy Gonzalis though ? Did he offend the white or something ? lol or was he too Latino ?


You don't see 2D that well animated these days might i add.
 
Racism is what brings us together.
 
Those bastards banned speedy gonzalez. Are they fucking retards!
What the hell is wrong with having a laid back mexican and a heroic mouse that saved the day and goes after women?

Oh come on now! You should see some of the Japanese comics. Us Americans have HUGE noses.
 
I can handle the loss of Speedy Gonzalez, but what about his cousin? How can we make it without Slowpoke Rodriguez?

He pack a gun.

Don't forget anime! Those big eyes are supposed to be emulation of our western ways!

Actually, the big eyes come from the early inspiration from Western cartoons on Anime, like Steamoat Willie. Its just being stylistic.
