Dude, calm down.  I'm black (shocker) so that makes me the spokesperson for the entire race.  Listen:

• Cops chasing black guy: not racist unless the reason for the chase was profiling without justification.
• Cops chasing white guy: not racist unless it was a black cop and the white guy did nothing wrong
• Zimmerman killing unarmed Trayvon Martin:  Not racist but the media sold that story to the public
• Black guy shooting unarmed people on military base:  Not racist because the black guy was batshit crazy.  Just like Jeffrey Dahmer wasn't racist.  He just loved the taste of black people.
• White guy planning to shoot up school but being talked out of it by black woman:  also not racist.  Crazy comes in all shapes, sizes, and color.
• Black Panthers wanting to have Zimmerman killed:  Racist as fuck. So was Spike Lee giving out Zimmerman's (wrong) address in hopes that some ill-informed black guy would go there for some sort of vigilante justice.

Hope that clears things up for you.  Any replies, ask me today.  Tomorrow, Snoop Dogg/Snoop Lion is our spokesperson.  He gets to be the man twice as much because of his two names.  Won't be my turn again until May 19, 2015.  And for the record, my black brother in law has the game and thinks it's the greatest thing ever.

If GTAV was racist, they wouldn't have made Lamar so loveable.

But if it portrays the real american life, how can the game be racist?

Pffft, Trevor can be chased by the police just as you switch to him. Where's that article?


Terrible. What else do you expect from a GTA game?

I love when idiots automatically call something racist when they have no knowledge what so ever of that said thing!

I'm not white(shocker)-more of the south european(or you'll call it Latin) sort.I myself am part(or was born as part) of a very latent racist minority that pretends not be be racist,therefore i am tired of all that racist-blabla as it is creating the illusion that racism is an only white men monopol,and that is 100% wrong.

Btw-i like your point of view,as it is accurat and reasonable.

Lol I need this to happen to me in the game. Also, satiring/spoofing racism from the real world isn't racist.

All I can say is REALLY? Go play bible adventures or hello kitty island adventure if you are that sensitive.

Plus you have a boondocks avatar!? LOLOLOLOL!! This thread should be closed.

There are rascist, sexist, etc types of characters and themes. However that doesn't make game inherently racist. It's satire like south park and those kind of things. The thing with satire is that it's always debatable whether or not it conveys itself properly.

Last night while playing, i wanted to put this to the test. I would walk up to groups of people in the same locations first as Franklin, Then do it again with Trevor. Both situations played out EXACTLY the same. I walked up to a group of 3 people. Stood there looking at them. After a bit they get mad, and a few seconds later they throw a punch. The cops are called and when they arrive they WILL shoot you. (what ever Happened to getting arrested?)

also both white and black people in game will fight back when you take their car.
