In the movie "Blazing Saddles", a little old lady is rude to the (black) sheriff, saying "up yours, N.....". One of the tv networks showed it, but changed it to "Out of my way, N....". I couldn't believe that they thought 'up yours' was more offensive than the N word! Oh, and they also changed the fireside 'beans' scene, so that each time one of the guys stood up and raised his leg, a horse neighed... Didn't make much sense.
Funny! Either show the film as is or don't. Schools have banned Huckleberry Finn because of that word.
