    Then bring back the Hatfields and McCoys segment of Make Mine Music. Every time you try to make a specific type of person appear on screen, there's a pretty good chance that you will offend someone.

    If Disney gets too much flak over Princess and the Frog, it'll mean good-bye to any future black animated characters.

    You generally won't find a Cajun in New Orleans, unless they moved there. Cajuns are from areas like Napoleonville, Donaldsonville, Moreauville, Alexandria, etc. All of these places are at least an hour or more outside New Orleans.
