This is an article I came across before Halloween. It's all about how Charlie Brown is bad for children now. Are you kidding me!!! This is such a joke. I'm sick of these "concerned" individuals who seem to think it's their duty to save-guard children from everything that could possible be deemed offensive or negative. It's Charlie Brown! There is nothing more wholesome, I mean have you seen the Christmas special?
Here's a quote from the article I particularly enjoy: “The show is riddled with the kids calling each other stupid, dumb, and blockheads. There is continous teasing and bullying. Charlie Brown is supposed to be the hero, instead he is kicked and demeaned at every turn, even by the adults giving out candy.”
To whomever wrote this and those who agree with it. You. Are. Absurd! Anyone who thinks Charlie Brown is bad for children really needs to rethink a lot of things in their life. Who knows, maybe someone just had the classic football pulled away from them trick too many times and just set their sights on taking down one of the most beloved children's characters of all time.
Attacking Charlie Brown? Seriously? Are these people just choosing a form of entertainment at random and desperately trying to find what is in their view considered even remotely offensive? lol Aaaa man, what are you going to do? This kind of people will never cease finding the time and effort to piss others off. Luckily, we live in the good old UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! Rock n roll and gangsta rap aint dead, slahser movies aint dead, porn aint dead. So, good luck getting Charlie Brown off kids' TV screens.
