fatshady Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Hey, Just saw the new screens and to me it looks like the Statue of happiess (Liberty) looks to be a black dude perhaps holding a can of drink>??? The pic is low res when magnified but have a look. If the link is crappy... sorry, just go over to gta4.net and check out the new screens. Only say this post a few minutes ago so sorry if already spotted. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatshady Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Sorry for the double post but this could be a person from any racial background.... Just my thoughts. Eitherway it is kinda funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceedot Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Why black? The statue looks like she has a mustache if you ask me. EDIT: Ye thanks for pointing that out. Next time edit, and don't say black, it's sort of offensive.(not to me but to other people.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Deuce Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 It's green, not black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatshady Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 (edited) See second post... After further consideration, could be anyone! Mods, feel free to change subject to exclude "black" reference. Thanks No offence intended. Edited December 8, 2007 by fatshady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhoda Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 (edited) I just think she's grinning, and with her being called "The Statue Of Happiness", it makes sense. Wonder what's making her happy though... must be under that robe of hers... EDIT: Just something I noticed, with no intention to hijack the topic by the way, but the Statue in GTA IV is facing the opposite way to the Statue Of Liberty in New York.

The Night Fox Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 It's green, not black. Correct, look closely at the statue in the beginning of trailer 3 and it is green, just like the real Statue of Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky_ Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 why is it offensive to say black? Is it offensive to say white? They're just words to describe the colour of your skin, not particularly accurate ones, but conventional ones. The words themselves aren't racist at all! Its only what you say and what you think that makes you racist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its only what you say and what you think that makes you racist Agreed. It's more politically correct to refer African-Americans with the word 'black', rather than 'coloured', for example, which I think you will find is more offensive to black people.

rocky_ Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I would like to see all white yanks referred to as "European Americans". I think that would be more politically correct than calling them just white people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ret-RAT Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Lock this topic, it doesn't achieve anything valuble for GTA 4. it's just a bad picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
