It makes all the black guys talk like idiots so that's a little racist. I don't know many black people but they have only talked like that about 1 out of 5 times. Using the N word all the time is just improper.


Have you listened to Michaels family at all in this game? Black people aren't the only idiots in this game.

this is true.  the only caveat is that while there were intelligent white people in the game all of the black people talked like they were raised on ebonics.  Actually nevermind because all of Frank's friends were from the hood so I guess that makes sense that they would all talk the same.  Carry on.

Those aren't the only black people in the game.  There's a black FIB agent who's part of the storyline and he doesn't talk like he's from the hood.  I'm sure there are random characters on the street who are the same. 



Short answer: No

Long answer: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Did you mean to say the game depicts racism as opposed to the game conveying racist stereotypes?

In real life their is no question that many cops of all races are pre-disposed to racism towards African Americans, and therefore their inclusion in the game would makes sense given its exaggerated take on modern life and crime.

Though to be honest I have yet yo experience what you claim to be in the game.

Oh god. Yes.



So wait?

Cops chasing a white guy= no racist
Cops chasing a black guy= racist.

Mexican killing black bully(could've been obamas son) =white racist
Black guy(could have been obamas son?) shooting lots of white guys in a military building= no racist
black hitmen shooting several white men= no racist
new black panthers crying out to kill zimmerman=no racists at all

I must have been missing some logical points in here.


I am 100% not into this political correctness thing and am tired of those chronically moaning and desperately waiting to find a reason to cry out "racism"
but gta 5 is racist in a very different and subliminal way.Just at the start of the game the word nigga is used almost 100times and i really hated this.
As this game is played by mostly non-black people this is having a negative impact on the image of black people as most black people on this planet don't call each other that way or do not use this word that often.



I still don't have the game but if things transpired the way the OP says they did then this is the greatest game, ever!



Not as racist as I am.
