These are hilarious! I don't have pictures, but I have some ideas: lots of animal abuse, threatening to kill a child, evil tyranny, child abuse, sexism, Aang's continued blushing whenever Katara comes near him (what's he thinking all those times?), children running away and going to travel the world by themselves, children going into war, the concept of the firebenders, killing off main characters, and, of course, all the fight scenes.
Oh kids, go on out and do all these. We do them and we never get in trouble. You'll only probably get thrown into jail for these and many more.
(Above part was a sarcastic 'remark' from Nick or the cast of Avatar.)

What surprised me the most was the cactus juice. From what happens to Sokka we can tell it's powerful hallucinogen like mescaline (actually found in some cacti) or LSD. They portrayed him as having a good time on the drug, and even had Toph ask for some after she knew what it did. Then a few episodes later, there's "hitting" the cactus juice. I could see how some people could interpret this as encouraging use of such drugs. And possessing a hallucinogenic cactus to get high lands you a felony drug charge. As far as I know, it's the first time a Nick character ever took a hard drug, and that's shocking enough on its own, and then to make it seem like a harmless good time? I *NEVER* expected that on Nick.
Coming in second is genocide. It's unheard of for a Nick show to depict large scale genocide, with an entire civilization (except Aang), men women and children, being wiped out. That's a very disturbing topic.

Hmm, I might as well try... Inappropriate touching (of course we all know Sokka is irresistable) Unrealistic kissing, seriously, Sokka would be COVERED in Kyoshi makeup Blockade Running Beating of Helpless Elderly Not Beating Helpless Elderly who totally deserve it Sorry if some of these don't show up, Avatar Spirit seems to be having image troubles.

^ Ty Lee really wants Sokka! Very Random: Bryan and Mike make Family Guy so that might explain some of this stuff they get away with.

Here's some more (AvatarSpirit's screenshots appear to be having some problems right now... they should come back sooner or later): Questionable interrogation techniques: This has got to hurt. Badly: Holding children at swordpoint: Child soldiers: ...the concept of the firebenders... The funny thing is, Firebenders are probably the only reason they can actually show characters getting injured in the show at all. For some reason, Nick has less problems with burns than with blood. Strange.

Random: Bryan and Mike make Family Guy so that might explain some of this stuff they get away with. That's so true. And, it would certainly explain Sokka being stoned off his face. ^^

Then again, his ability to survive was negitively impacted by getting high. Those bug creatures got the better of him. And I don't think the Professor died. No way that Wong Shi Tong would let anyone so devoted to gaining knowlegde die. No, he probably ends up being his library apprentice or something. ;D Mocking elders: Stupidity in government officals (that lemur's EARTHBENDING!): Creeeeepy old guys: Threats of arson: ZOMG A PREGNANT LADY!!!!!: Spying on parents: Asking for help from strangers: Crashing parties: AND MANY MOOOOOOOOORE...

I think putting scene by scene is hilarious and stupdi at the same time as the avatar can get away with anything (including perverted thoughts and things)
