* While bad jokes about minorities are common on ''[[Family Guy]]'', few members of the cast can rarely be called actual bigots, but some minor characters stand out: |

** Francis, Peter's asshole of an adoptive father. An old curmudgeon with exaggerated [[Fundamentalist]] views, he despises anyone who isn't Roman Catholic, and vehemently objected to his stepson marrying Lois for that reason. He went so far as to tape a sign under the "Just Married" sign on their car at their wedding that said "to a Protestant whore". |

** Carter, Lois' ''actual'' father (and often regarded as the main antagonist of the whole series), is little better. Descended from slave owners, Carter is depicted as a stereotypical conservative billionaire, he disapproves of gay marriage (saying, "next they'll be wanting to vote!") and employs Mexican immigrants working as gardeners at substandard wages. Also, despite marrying a Jewish woman (Lois' mother, of course) he is very anti-Semetic, and forced his wife conceal her faith so he'd be accepted in upper class social clubs with "exclusive" membership requirements. Note this is far from the only reason Carter is scum. |

** Quite a few one-shot villains too, such as Sheriff Nichols from "Cool Hand Peter" ([[Dirty Cop| a not-so-noble bigot with a badge]]) and Franz Schlechtnacht from "German Guy", an actual Nazi; confronting him was likely the most admirable thing [[Dirty Old Man| Herbert]] ever did on the show. |

* Princess Clara in ''[[Drawn Together]]''; embodying the worst of [[The Fundamentalist|Christian Fundamentalism]], she is blatantly anti-Semitic, believing and spreading well-known anti-Semitic [[Conspiracy Theories]] like well-poisoning. Ironically, her voice actress, [[Tara Strong]], is Jewish. |
