Sadly - there are people in the world, true racists, who have caused certain groups of people harm and suffering in the past. Now because of those people there is a tendency for over sensitivity to racism and it is usually not even the 'offended' groups who make complaints, but militant do good type people who seem to be completely unaware that instead of healing the rift between races, they are increasing it by being so oversensitive and vocal in their critisism of absolutly anything that could possibly give them a soapbox to stand on.
If i ever hear anybody say that the game Resident Evil 5 is racist towards black people - i will ask them to qualify that statement, even though:
2of the main protaganists are of black origin and they are portrayed as being no less able, intelligent or righteous as the main white protagonist
The story is set in a part of Africa where the general population is of black origin, therefore it makes sense that should a biohazard of and type occur in such an area those infected would be predominatly black.
I would then ask them if they think it would better for Africa to be left out of all future games, books, films and songs just in case one or two of them were portrayed in a light that offends them?
Then I would kick that person 12 times in the boobs.
amen
Sorry if offended any catholics with the amen.
