    A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

      Don't tell me you've never seen the anti-Japanese bugs bunny cartoons.

                It wasn't racism. It was anti Japanese.

                          Why?
                          I used to watch TMNT when there was nothing else on. I always thought that TMHT was another crappy spin-off.

                            as usual wikipedia has been to my rescue. And it explained all the British craziness towards ninjas and even the nunchaku.

                            What an oppressive society.

                              It ran afoul of UK censorship policies. They felt the word ninja had to be too violent for children's TV. They also removed Michelangelo's nunchaku and toned down the use of the other Turtles' weapons as well.

                                There was a black steppin' fetchit character that was unbelievable racist even before WW2 and the anti-Japanese toons as well. Here's a link:

                                He's got the Midas touch.
                                But he touched it too much!
