The way South Park, Family Guy, and other people are today?

The question is do we ban it due to times changing? Yes he showed hatred against the Japanease. The thing is, the country was at war and Bugs Bunny was used to show how the country felt about the Japanease people. Were people in theaters across the country saying, "That's racist! Ban this cartoon!" No. They were saying, "That's it Bugs! Kill the slant eyes!" Right? No. It was how people were feeling at the time though.

With that said, in 50 years should cartoons making fun of Osama Bin Ladin and Al Qaeda terrorist be banned because they may offend someone?
