Wow! Elmer Fudd isn’t going to be happy he no longer can use his double-barreled shotty to hunt “wabbits”...

[EnigmaticAnomaly]

Oops...that is a Warner Bros production...hope they don’t succumb to this nonsense!

[Doogle]

...well maybe it’s because Mickey was convicted of shooting Goofy (if the joke is needed,give me time to copy and paste it)

WB will make more millions in sales of the uncut versions

Everything that liberals get their tentacles into becomes corrupted.

This is pathetic.

Really, Disney? Really? Do you think we have come to the point as a society that we can’t even allow guns to be seen by children for fear that it will cause them to become crazed, blood thirsty psychopaths? Do you really think guns are so evil that the mere sight of one will cause blood to run in the streets?

Actually, I've long wondered why the liberals who want to ban guns and violence don't start by eliminating them from their movies and TV shows.

(Of course, I wouldn't avocate removing guns from vintage cartoons and TV shows. I don't think anyone would suggest that the use of guns on TV today (judging by show promos during NFL games 'cause that's all I see) is in any way comparable to the way they were used on Gunsmoke e.g.)

Several years ago I made a tourist trip to London, UK and discovered to my horror that the Imperial War Museum is equally, or more, PC. They have an excellent collection of WWII small arms that they do not display to the general public. Instead, they reserve viewing of that collection only for certified academics and similar people. Being an educational institution, that makes them even worse than Disney. It also means we should all take our kids and grand kids to the NRA Museum, regularly take them to gun shows, and give all of them firearms training, including live fire, as soon as they're old enough to know what guns are and what they do.

Disney Channel Edits Out Gun From 1938 Mickey Mouse Cartoon

If you happen to see E.T. on tv, look for all the FBI agents running around.....their guns have been edited out and they now how radios.

Pathetic.

[andy58-in-nh]

Well, it was 1938, after all. Just think what might have happened if we'd had nothing more than brooms for American troops to train for fighting the Nazis and the Japanese.

Oh wait. We did.

Our troops had to drill with brooms at first because liberal Progressives like Woodrow Wilson and his idiotic League of Nations forced us to destroy weapons and bulldoze airplanes so that WWI would be the "War to End All Wars".

How'd that work out? Liberals never learn a damned thing. And once again they are eager to render us all defenseless in the service of their stupid, stupid ideology.

[LRS]

Oh! Thank you liberals! You won’t be happy until we have a whole society that will flee in panic when some third world thug pulls out a pellet gun. ‘Run! It’s a weapon of mass destruction! No telling how many eyes he can put out with that thing!” And people wonder how massacres like the one in Norway can happen...

This is so 1984... The Orwell kind.

I'd suggest that since there are waaaaaay more firearms in the US now than there were in 1938 (and much finer and more accurate firearms they are, too!) that this is an example of libs believing that if they can't see something, it's not there, so they don't need be concerned that it will disturb their cocoon. (MMGW excluded!)

Remember what they did to ET, the Extra Terrestial?

[ArrogantBustard]

SHAME ON YOU, DISNEY! SHAME ON YOU!

Disney has no shame, and has been completely overrun with shameless, simpering faggots.

A town by where I live had their weekend annual celebration and some famous bankrobber had robbed a bank there so they do a re-enactment every year. All the kids that show up get a free toy.

The free toy is a toy gun.

Man, I love it here. It’s like I went back in time 50 years but still have internet access. :-D

What’s next...Elmer Fudd hunting wabbits with a camera?

[factoryrat]

Cartoons are produced and edited by corporate attornies nowadays. It comes down to Disney limiting their exposure to possible lawsuits put forth by every whack job out there looking for any lame excuse to sue for a paycheck. I would call it censorship by possible litigation, or PC CYA vanilla mode.

I grew up watching Coyote and Roadrunner cartoons, and I have as of yet used an anvil, TNT, or rocket powered rollerskates to off someone (although I have entertained the thought from time to time).

[Buckeye McFrog]

I remember Chuck Jones, producer of many of the classic Looney Tunes, coming to speak at my college campus years ago. The move towards PC editing of cartoons on television was already underway. Jones led off his appearance with an impassioned plea.

“Tell these heavy-handed idiots to stop raping my cartoons!”

Years ago my daughter had a VHS tape of several Dr. Seuss cartoons. One of them was Horton The Elephant which contained a scene where a fish, seeing Horton up on the top of his tree/sitting on his nest while crossing the ocean on a ship, pulls out a large frame revolver and blows his own head off (in a “well, now I’ve seen everything” sort of way).

I was really surprised by by own adverse reaction to it, moreso that the scene was still in the cartoon.
