"Curse like a sailor / drink like a mick / my only words of wisdom are / <radio edit>" - Kid Rock
It's a good thing they left that racial slur in there otherwise we wouldn't know what the censored part rhymes with.

4Kids single-handledly ruined America's impression of One Piece. While it is super popular in Japan and elsewhere in the Western world, it's more or less flat-lined in the US.
Some people like the "Yohoho! Get a bite of that Gum-Gum!" rap unironically, others (like me) hate the poo poo out of it. 
e: My favorite censorship in 4Kids One Piece, though:

For context, the crew is supposed to run into a whale named Laboon at the base of Reverse Mountain, whose relationship with a certain character they meet much later plays a pivotal role in the story. For whatever reason, 4Kids chopped huge parts of the story out (including the entire Little Garden arc) and here, to skip over the Laboon segment, they replaced the whale with a lovely photoshop of an iceberg.
It's pretty funny how shoddily they handled everything in the initial dub, from the goofy voices (including Sanji's retarded New York-ah accent) to the edits to... Well, basically everything. It's infamously bad.
One Piece was already loving garbage.
