The news just said that the last original episodes of Mr Rogers Neighborhood will show next week.
I've always been more the Sesame Street type, and I believe PBS is an indoctrination tool used by the government to brainwash children in their formative years...
but...
I'll still miss the dude.

I loved the model rail road in the end of the show, as a child I always wished I could light the town on fire or blow it up somehow. [}:D] I thought Mr. Rogers, got arrested for child molestation, or was that Mr. Wizard the scientist guy? They both looked like pedophiles to me.

That's why they allow him to work at PBS.
They also have Psychologists on staff, whose entire objective is figuring out the most effective way to permanently effect the psyche of children via imagry. The government is molding out future leaders with a very finite, non-free agenda, and the childrens shows of PBS that we all watched are the catalyst.

Anyway, I always thought Bob Dog was cool...
And rumor has it, Mr. McFeely is Charlton Hesston undercover.

I challenge any of you to document one single, solitary anti-gun statement publicly made by Fred Rogers.  He lives here, in Pittsburgh, and is by all accounts a quiet, decent man.  The "accusations" that he is a child molester are beneath contempt.
This is especially irritating coming from guys who probably enjoy watching shows featuring noted perverts and homosexuals (documented as such)like Bob Crane and Randolph Scott.

Golgo, I did not mention any anti gun statements by the asshole. I said he was a card carrying member of HCI. Call Dillion Precision and bitch to them. The last list they published of celebrities who are members had the little prick listed as a contributing member.
And I don't really give a shit where he lives or how quiet he is.

Whatever Fred Rogers may believe about guns, I still challenge you or anybody else to demonstrate that he used his TV show as a platform to air those views ala Rosie O'Donnell.  Fred Rogers consistently used his show to teach children the kind of values that an awful lot of people on this board claim they want to see inculcated in America's children.  Do you perhaps have something to the contrary that you can put forward, or is calling the man an asshole and a prick all you have to offer?

PBS uses various techniques to mindwipe children.
Example; a program may not directly say "GUNS ARE BAD" because that is an irrelavant issue to a 3 year olds mind.
What it will do, is teach them that government officials are to be revered, and their wishes abided by (everyone bowing to King Friday on Mr. Rogers is a good example)-
Sesame Street uses a hugely disproportionate amount of minorities in it's programming.
Why?
To facilitate blind acceptance. And while to many this isn't a bad thing, the motives behind it are very, very sinister.

While to an adult mind, this seems innane, and foolis. To the child in his 0-4 formative years, imagery is taken in on a whole different level.
The folks who run PBS know this.
PBS is a government tool, and Mr. Rogers was party to it.

McLandon,

I think you are reading more into Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood than is actually there.  The whole "Forest of Make-Believe" theme follows the fairy tale motif with which most children are already familiar.  Fairy tales, which have been around for centuries in every culture, prominently feature talking animals, kings, and all the other familiar "Forest of Make-Believe" stuff.  Now, if PBS has the ability to reach back across centuries and continents as part of present-day attempt to mindwipe the present generation of toddlers, then we are, indeed, screwed.

While the settings used by PBS are familliar (ie Fairy Tales in Mr. Rogers) they are merely catalysts for the agenda.
The agenda is portrayed through something as accepted as a "Fairy Tale", because that is an efficient way to reach the psyche of a child.
Also, keep in mind, Fairy Tales in themselves, in their primary format, are usually used to convey a lesson.
With PBS, the lesson is digitized, and altered to fit the agenda of the government who finances it, all the while with the convienent packaging of a "Fairy Tale"
It's scary shit.
