    When a life-size Donald Duck was accused of being racist at Disneyland this week, we were reminded: Sometimes kids' characters are creepy, and not just because they have freaky dead eyes and annoying voices.

      Okay, okay. So it wasn’t actually Barney who pulled the trigger. But the purple dino still endured some bad publicity in early February, when Patrick Leach, the son of creator Sheryl Leach, was charged with the attempted murder after shooting his California neighbor.
