No it's not. If it's dubbed by 4Kids or back in the day you have a point. But most of the anime currently being aired on CN has kill. Naruto has kill (and "destroy" censoring is removed in the Uncut boxset), DBZ has kill, Funi's One Piece dub has kill, and all of Adult Swims' stuff has kill. I've heard it millions of times with anime dubs that don't get a TV airing.

Though the editing is rather interesting when compared to what the comic book movies Toonami aired got away with.
