Why?
So white people can't make racial remarks (which are not even written by themselves, but a writing staff who may be a mixed cauldron of sorts) just because they are white?
I'd hate to sound like being part of the "don't hate on whitey" bandwagon, but comments like that are just silly. So if they got Black/Chinese/Indian/Etc. voice actors it would be OK?
There's a lot more REAL bigotry and hatred out there. Having lived in the Southern part of the US, as well as New York (which has it's fair share of racial tension) I can tell you, that Family Guy has little true racial impact. It's the guy who talks about "hating them niggers", and how "kikes are going to hell" that's the problem. Not a cartoon show.
P.S. I'm really sorry if I offended anyone with those derogatory terms. I wished only to use them in quotation as examples. I myself do not speak like that, nor am I bigoted.
P.S.S. For the record, I'm not flaming/neg-ing you about your opinion of Family Guy being entertaining, or the rest of your post. We all have out own opinions about what's funny and entertaining.
