Looney Tunes remake will see Elmer Fudd without his rifle as creators declare 'we're not doing guns'

"Damn you all! I'm voting Twump!"
[TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] Elmer Fudd is still hunting wabbits, but now he hasn’t got a wifle.The Looney Tunes cartoons have been remade for a modern audience, and Fudd is no longer allowed to have a gun.

Warner Bros has commissioned a new animation series featuring the classic characters, including Bugs Bunny, which sticks close to the spirit of the originals.

But viewers may notice a difference when it comes Fudd - whose catchphrase was: "Shhh. Be vewy, vewy quiet. I’m hunting wabbits."

In response to US gun violence, the showrunners will not include firearms in Fudd’s arsenal. That is not to say that he has given up hunting Bugs Bunny, though - he just uses a scythe instead.

Sticks of dynamite, anvils on the head and booby traps will still feature in the series....

The preferred weapon of Islamic terrorists is still OK. Way to go Wokesters. Your heads will be sawed off last.
