United States8 days ago - Porky Pig and Elmer Fudd are the same character
Alex is totally wrong about Porky Pig and worse he rakes his friend over the coals about it. She’s right. He’s wrong. Do your research Alex. Porky Pig and Elmer Fudd both hunted Bugs Bunny. Fudd is a human version of Porky Pig, who was supposed to be a capitalist pig. He’s a rich lawyer from Manhattan who hunts rabbit in Brooklyn for fun, as they used to do in real life (Coney Island is literally Rabbit Island).
