The one where they all lived in the suburbs and Daffy and Bugs were housemates?

I liked it. It has some good lines,
 
The interesting thing about Trump is that because he was a celebrity who occasionally made noises about running for President, he’s popped up in cartoons for years before actually becoming a political figure. Apart from his famous Simpsons appearance, Garry Trudeau from Doonesbury has been drawing him since 1987. Trudeau normally didn’t draw Presidents into his strip and represented them by some symbol or in the case of Reagan by drawing him as a parody of Max Headroom on a TV screen (called “Ron Headrest”) so it’s kind of weird to see actual drawings of a President by Trudeau.

Foghorn Leghorn was actually a parody of two popular radio show characters when he was created. Nowadays everyone has totally forgotten both of the radio show characters, but Foghorn Leghorn lives on.
 
Boy howdy!!! I’ll bet bugs is happy they’ve disarmed Elmer… 🐰
 
Is that an actual comic published or just a photoshopped parody? If it’s real, I want it!

Hulk Smash!

Not quite. He got to kill the wabbit in What’s Opera Doc (1957), and he didn’t have a gun either

That is my favorite episode! When my husband and his brother would go rabbit hunting years ago, my SIL and I would escort them to the truck sing…Kill the Wabbit and giggling the whole time!
 
Years ago, the writer of Beetle Bailey was constantly getting censored and the navels excised with razor blades from the young ladies he drew in swimsuits.

He finally included a crate of navel oranges on some pretense, which had too many to delete :crazy_face:

They stopped removing navels . . .

Foghorn Leghorn reminded me of an obnoxious Andy Griffith as a little girl.

We had an attorney on the other side of a case a few years ago that we called “the chickenhawk”. He was so far out of his element, and unaware of the rules and standards that it was all I could do to not pop out with, “Lookalike’s here, son, I say, son . . .”

not really–now how is he supposed to bend the gun into a U, or poke it out the next hole behind Fudd?
 
The first stop in abolishing our Second Amendment. Like everything else, they target the children first.
 
I am a believer in Second Amendment rights as much as the next person, but not everything related to firearms that doesn’t praise them to the skies is an attack on those rights. And isn’t it just common sense to teach children what you believe, whichever side you are on? Ultimately, the biggest single influence on a child is his/her parents, so just rear them right and let the rest of society take care of itself.

And for those who do actually want to abolish the right to keep and bear arms, there is a straightforward process already in place to do so. In fact, there are two possible routes, but only one has been used so far. I would estimate the likelihood of success as very low, but you never know.
 
He’s always been an easy target of parody. Caricature artists have always had a field day with him, too!
 
When I saw that episode at about 5 I cried and cried about Bugs Bunny.

My mom was wondering why I was crying, and I couldn’t tell her why I was so sad.

So I wrote a note. “Bugs buny is ded”
 
I found an official Warner Brothers preview of the new Warner Brothers Bugs Bunny/ Elmer Fudd cartoon. The preview was posted by Warner Brothers last summer apparently, and is on the official Warner Brothers youtube channel, so no copyright infringement.

After watching this, I wish they had let Elmer have his gun, or SOMETHING, because this was painful to watch. Seriously, Itchy and Scratchy stuff right here.
