Alaysia Assignment 13 (Cartoons)

Yes The Simpsons and Family Guy can cross the line...jump over the line, erase the line, roll over the line...etc, but I personally don't have a probably with it. (I WILL NOT VOUCH FOR SOUTH PARK...I REPEAT, I WILL NOT VOUCH FOR SOUTH PARK) Any who, yes those cartoons are habitual line steppers and I personally find them very entertaining. They don't make fun of just one race and personally attack them every episode. Even Peter Griffin had moments where he was Irish and black and even created his own religion around Fonze. I'd rather be able to laugh at something then to be angry and upset. These cartoons are just like comedians. They step outside the comfort zone, testing how well the people can take it. Comics don't stand on stage and make jokes just to (excuse the language) pussy foot around certain subjects. Margaret is a great example of that. Yes she didn't hide behind cartoons so her act wouldn't be as offensive but that's not the point. The question is can you take a joke? There are more offensive and hurtful things that have occurred in this world and are still taking place. Yes we have habitual line steppers that take pride in what they do. Shouldn't we take those strong feelings and gear it towards something else that needs more attention?
