I understand how you feel about such things, but everyone must also note that love is an emotion that no one can control. Some people hate them selfs for who they fall in love with, while others bask in it.
This is why, when I'm out and someone makes fun of someone's sexuality, I cannot help but get mad. People should have learned a long time ago that no one can control their sexuality. God has made them how they see fit, isn't that right? Then that means he has made them that way and you shouldn't get mad over God's judgment.
If Toons were real, as in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and I did have some friend fall for one, I'm sorry, but I would not hate them for it. I can understand how it would make you uncomfortable, but I wouldn't despise that person. They cannot control it.
I'm sorry if I put some things that offense people in this, but it really is the truth.

EDIT: You know what? Forget this. I'm just going to get myself in trouble for voicing my heterosexual Christian views, and I don't want an argument to start. I prefer peace, if you don't mind... Quite frankly, I'm disappointed that this subject became the question of one's sexuality. I didn't want it to. I have my opinion and I'm sticking to it, but no amount of self-defense on my part will avoid ruffled feathers. I will say this, though: one's sexuality doesn't make me love or hate them. Can we change the subject, please?

Yes, excuse me for being so blunt in my last reply.
Why do you think Wikipedia put Greasy as Puerto-Rican?

No clue. Sounds like fan speculation to me... I don't see why he wouldn't be Mexican, myself.

Yes, I've always seen him as Mexican as well. *shrugs* To tell the truth, when I was younger, I always saw Wheezy as French. XD No clue why.

Like I've said elsewhere on this forum, the sheer likelihood that he's Mexican, considering that this is LA we're talking about, is enough for me. Also, I once researched the word "caramba", and it would seem that it's only Mexican slang. Then, I found this article long ago: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PachucoIf Greasy doesn't fit with this, I don't know what he would fit into... Hold on... the Wikipedia article on "caramba" says that it's used by Spanish people, too... ah well, I get the impression that Mexicans use it more often, since it's so strongly associated with them.

But what about Smartguy his talk is like he's Brooklyn but some say that David Landers is from New York so what is he?

Well, technically Brooklyn is a part of New York, because it's a metropolis. David Lander was born in Brooklyn, so I would assume that he's going for that sort of accent. Also, Brooklyn accents were a stock accent in Hollywood cartoons and movies, and I get the impression that LA accents were more like East Coast accents at the time.
Of course, if we were to go with my theory about the Toon Patrol being the descendants of the weasels from The Wind in the Willows, SA would have had to have grown up in Brooklyn so he could pick up that accent. Even if he wasn't their descendant, he still could've lived there. Or, if you prefer, he was created with that accent.

Hmm... well, you're the first to disagree with me, then.
I also remember that Greasy sounds like Cheech in Car Toon Spin, who specializes in east LA accents, so I guess that means Disney Imagineers at least think of him as Mexican.

...That he was the descendant of The Wind in the Willows weasels and was born and raised in Brooklyn? I gave more than one theory, but this is the one I prefer.
