. . . egregious, dangerous and counter-productive. RUGGED BEAR begins by depicting herds of terrified Black and Brown Bears threatened by a plethora of gun fire within a forest seeming to contain all the pale-faced law enforcement shooters of an entire nation. Though North America is infested with loads of white bears, not one of them is threatened with lead perforation and a grisly death here. However, the title character--one of the aforementioned Bears of Color--takes refuge in what turns out to be the hunting cabin of Don Duck. Too late does this unfortunate critter realize that said foul water bozo is a serial killer of people-like mammals. His walls are festooned with the decapitated heads of many earlier victims. Don Duck proceeds to run through virtually ALL of the Red State outrages perpetrated against minority folks by crazed mobs, burning the bear, subjecting him to full-body water immersion and virtually skinning him alive. Don further abuses his better by using RUGGED BEAR's mouth for a can opener and nutcracker. Don't call this ancient history: Dizzy Mega Corporation is a social outcast, and we all know a leper cannot change its spots.
