   I have a Doonesbury strip taped by my monitor. An early one with Mike and Zonker(April 14, 1974).

   Brilliant. One of Berkeley’s best newspaper-themed cartoons from that time…

   Sensitive readers are the reason comics like Family Circus and Blondie are still in so many papers. I feel sorry for the editor who actually puts good comics in the paper and then has to suffer the complaints.

   I like comics that constantly push the envelope. “Safe” comics are bland, sterile and consistently uninteresting.

   Censors have their uses.

   I agree with doctortoon, unfortunately it seems the sensitive ones are also the affluent ones so their whines are law. Us braver types need to get better jobs so we can use our money to tell those sensitive ones to go and fornicate themselves a metal spatula!

   Way back in the early 1980s, there was a mighty struggle between daring cartoonists and skittish editors. Today we have Pearls Before Swine. Yayyy!
