"Father, oh Father, now you can be my Daddy . . . "

" . . . and my Mummy, too!" exclaims Sylvester, Jr., as this "Merrie Melodies" Hippety Hopper Museum Episode wraps up. Minutes earlier, Junior had shot Sylvester I in his butt with the museum's blunderbuss, illustrating Warner Bros.' oft-made point that guns in the hands of family members are the most dangerous Grim Reapers of all. Shortly after MOUSE-TAKEN IDENTITY was released, the American Nazi Party's NRA legislative arm bribed its stooges in the U.S. Congress to prohibit any national tabulation of Child Gun Death Statistics. So while anyone who has the slightest exposure to the news hears of countless "accidental" cousin-cousin, brother-brother, father-child fatal shootings daily, it's now illegal to even know (much less to communicate) that firearms are Public Enemy Number One to American Youth, killing more of them than all other causes of death put together and tripled. Every other Civilized Country in this World keeps guns out of Private Homes Containing Children, as well as Homes Children May Visit. Only the U.S. has such a callous disregard for its Next Generation that a sizable chunk of it is allowed to be blasted away every year. Realizing that most Truth is spoken in Jest, Warner Bros. uses cartoons such as MOUSE-TAKEN IDENTITY to try to save America from itself.
