Obviously cartoons that depicts violence is so rampant these days. I remember a friend told me about that website, at first she told me, "Do you want you to watch a cartoon..." I said "it's ok" and so we waited until it is completely downloaded. At first I thought everything is ok and then all of a sudden I was shocked after seeing the cartoon characters being hit by a truck, headless, being chopped and bleeding to pieces.
Is this funny? I don't see anything good at it? I think some of you might know what I'm talking about for I don't want to mention names. We'll is this entertainment? What if the kids are the ones who will see this movie or cartoon, just imagine being exposed to this kind of toons at an early age is not very good. I thought cartoons are for the kids to enjoy but as I see it, things are so different these days.

Actually the very first Popeye cartoons were for adults and not children. If you slow down Popeye when he was mumbling, he was really saying cuss words! :-0
Cartoons are generally geared towards children, yes. But I don't think they are all for children. Take South Park. Not sure if you have ever heard of it, but it's a highly non-child cartoon. Strictly for very mature audiences. So my view is, if you don't know what it is, view it first. Know what your children are watching and be the editor and chief of it. My channels on our tv are locked, the girls are only limited to certain channels I know they can trust. Even with that, I still check before I leave them in the room with it.

Yes, I've seen South Park, I only watched it once and I never watche it again. I heard somebody called the cable operator to banned it because of too much violence.

Yes, many have tried to get this show off the air, for about 10 years now. It's just one of those things either you love it, or you hate it.
