I wanna see someone do a cartoon like those today and see how they would get lynched by today's PC world. Obviously I don't support racism and other negative shots towards different groups in society as a whole but back then these guys who drew these cartoons were using them as a way to express themselves and I bet you when the soldiers and citizens who supported them saw these cartoons they felt differently towards them than we do today. But that's just the war themed ones.... no comment about them taking shots at the black folk.
Warner Bros sure were the crazy bunch in the cartoon world though.. can't say I remember a Disney cartoon ever doing such a thing.

Yeah. I kinda hate the PC movement for censoring it. Racist and war-mongering it may be, but it's part of the past now and should remain there. You used to have minstrels and all that jazz back then as well.
