Family Guy is very anti-gun and so is American Dad, a friend of mine loves these shows and I can't understand why. From the little I've seen of them they are extremely liberal. Funny one of the few episodes of American Dad that I did see was the anti-gun one back when the show first came on the air.
Frankly, if it comes to the point where society learns their values from cartoons shown on evening television, the society is doomed whether it's anti- or pro-gun.

You also have problems...
And cartoons are very relevant. Why would a cartoon be any less relevant, than a serious, well done movie? Sure, they are different forms of TV, but they both serve the same purpose. They simply appeal to different crowds.
I think every shotgun on that show is a pump double. Just to combine the menacing "Schlunk-schlunk" sound with the menacing two barrels.
I see you understood the point of my post.MakAttak said:Umm... people don't read. People don't interact. People don't talk to their neighbors. People don't even know their neighbors at times. (This is a BROAD generalization, I come from small town midwest where I know this is not true, but a very large portion of our population now exists in the way I describe)
If you are going to despair of a society that gets its values from cartoons and its news from Late Night talk shows... DESPAIR.
Ironically, I think the video games where people talk and play together from around the world are one of the last vestiges many people will have of true human interaction...
Perhaps if we got more people involved in shooting, this trend might be reversed? They'd want to know what their neighbors have, how to better shoot, go to the range together....
Homer: I'd like to buy your deadliest gun, please.
Gun Shop Owner: Aisle six, next to the sympathy cards.
Marge: I'm a lucky woman.
Homer: And I'm a wonderful man.
Homer: But Marge, I swear to you... I never thought you'd find out!
Salesman: But surely you can't put a price on your family's lives!
Homer: I wouldn't have thought so either, but here we are.
(Lisa is looking sad)
Homer: What's wrong Lisa?
Lisa: My ball is stuck on the roof.
Homer: No problem.
(Homer shoots the ball flat and it falls off the roof)
Homer: Want me to get the cat down?
Lisa: No thanks.
Gun Shop Owner: Whoah! Careful there Annie Oakley.
Homer: I don't have to be careful, I got a gun.
Yes, he summoned it by name. That's what cracked me up about that.Don't forget on South Park when in the Land of Imagination, Butters summons up a M60 machine gun for Jesus.
