I agree with Bonkers and Jolly Well, censorship should be up to the parents, not the government. Censorship of cartoons just because some of them have some racism in them is wrong. It's not showing how things should be, it's showing how things are and were. It is up to the parents and teachers to teach the kids what is wrong and why it is wrong.
Besides that, this is America, there is such a thing as freedom of speech, and with that comes the right to watch and read what we like. Government censorship and putting a ban on what we watch and read is exactly like what Hitler did when he ordered certain books be banned and burned (I think it was Hitler, I know it was some major dictator). It sounds too much like political correctness to me, which in turn sounds too much like communism, which has no place in America.
