Person Speedy

Why don't we ever see Speedy Gonzales on reruns of the Bugs Bunny show?

Was he removed because of perceived negative stereotyping? I used to love Speedy, and I'm a very tolerant person.
Hey, Bob Mc. Thanks for the input re: disc with Speedy on it. I'll admit I haven't seen the show on the cartoon network in Canada lately, but the question still bothered me.
Thanks everybody for your answers!

I haven't watched reruns of the Bugs Bunny show anytime recently, so I didn't realize this was an issue. But I suppose it is because of the possibly offensive stereotype. Although it seems like this would be a positive thing since Speedy always comes out as a winner.

If they are that concerned with negative stereotypes they better drop Foghorn Leghorn too, he makes Southerners look pretty silly sometimes. Oh yeah, and lose Yosemite Sam, real cowboys might get offended. And don't forget Porky Pig, Sylvester & Tweety, and Elmer Fudd...we don't want to make people with real speech impediments feel bad.

I guess what I'm trying to say is our political correctness in the nation today has gotten ridiculous.
