. . . by a motor vehicle while walking down a sidewalk (or standing at a bus stop, mowing the lawn, or sleeping in their bed inside their home) will appreciate this timely warning against such vehicular mayhem from Warner Bros., PAPPY'S PUPPY. After Pop Bulldog (aka, "Butch J. Bulldog") forces Sylvester Cat to run the gamut of automobile traffic speeding in both directions along a two-lane residential street, this ill-fated feline makes it back--with a sigh of relief--to what he perceives as the "safety" of the sidewalk. However, the unlucky black cat is then immediately flattened by a motorized scooter hurtling down the pedestrian pathway. By the mid-1950s, when PAPPY'S PUPPY was released, Warner's crack team of prognosticators, their Animated Shorts Seers division (aka, The Looney Tuners) perceived the emerging threat to America's well-being posed by the callous hot-rodding out-of-control Psychopaths of the Pavement. PAPPY'S PUPPY is one of several Warner Bros. warnings intended to alert the USA of this oncoming wave of motorized mass terror. Now that America has suffered its own Bastille Day-style truck attack in the Empire State, perhaps the highway department will finally install bollards every 10 feet along ALL the roadways, and establish stop-stick barriers at ALL access points to pedestrian promenades.
