This was good until the racist ending, disappointing. I never noticed the racism in these cartoons when I was younger. I wonder if Warner Bros Co. every publicly apologized for this kind of discrimination in their early cartoons.

@maxyliano Because that last part potrays black people in a bad light. They still get upset about that kind of stuff.

Hmm can anyone tell me why it has been banned? (I mean, the last part). In my country this cartoon ended right when he said "I wish I was in texas.. hurray hurray!"
