Elmer Fudd & Yosemite Sam Will No Longer Carry Guns
When you tune into the rebooted Looney Tunes cartoon series on HBO Max, things are going to look a little different. Warner Bros says Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam will not be carrying guns in the new series, although their outfits will remain the same.

It’s two characters in conflict, sometimes getting pretty violent.” Here are more details from CNN.
