Wow. Seems like some of my fellow newbies need to get some respect for this site in a hurry. Check some of the post counts in this thread. Mean nothing to you? Maybe it should.

If your god-given right to express your opinion includes calling anyone who plays a shooter on the 360 a 'mindess zombie' or posting a picture of someone you don't even know and talking crap then maybe you should keep it to yourself.

Opa Opa: I guarantee I'm not the only one who took your post as racist and if you don't back off of that shit I will report you to anyone and everyone who will listen. Gears is a great series and not everyone enjoys playing as a cartoon plumber.


I can see that this thread is just full of intelligence.

The picture in Opa Opa's post was of a guy who *happened to be black*.  His commentary had nothing to do with the ethnicity of the guy in the picture.  Insulting or making fun of someone who happens to be of a specific race isn't racism, when the comment is unrelated to race. 


The picture and quote can be taken easily either way. Both are in extremely poor taste.
