^Or... Silent Hill is a white town. It happens. I have a lot of friends in the North Eastern corner of the US and there is a shit load of white people there. So, playing to the audience in a white majority town will lead a business person to want little white girls to be in their commercials.

Better yet, the descriptions describes Cheryl. Everything else in SH:SM is about Cheryl, why should this be any different.

Ain't nuthin' wrong wit' dat.
"Oh yeah, I've been here before
I can see it with eyes closed
Shadows that look like blood
Dead as far as the mind goes
Fear that comes from my head
Lives in the mirror"

^ Haven't you heard? It's impossible to be racist against white people, because we apparently have a magical honkey fairly that grants us all of life's luxuries, just so long as we know the super secret straight white male handshake.

I didn't mean the thread to turn into a debate over what sort of discrimination is better than the other o_0
That ended up being a bit more engrossing than whatever the thread is now.

Don't forget the poster in Midwich High School about the chess club. :D
What did it say? I think something along the lines of White to play, 2 to mate or something.... when you obviously need black and white to play. Or maybe I'm looking into this one too deeply, lol >3>

...er, that meant that it was White's turn to play, and you had two turns to checkmate Black's king. It was a Chess puzzle.

I think that they were trying to show the inner racism that still exists in people. I don't think it was meant to offend anybody but just to show that there are racists out there.

I really don't buy the argument that they were just looking for a specific group of kids like someone above had mentioned. The creators knew exactly how people were going to see it. I mean it's pretty straight foward.

Maybe that's the point: No racism existed, but the game is playing on our inner judgementalism.

I think this is why we will not see a black or gay protagonist in Silent Hill. The content in nature is suppose to be disturbing, so if they were to tailor a game towards someone who is black or gay, the casual player, lawyers and the NAACP would see it as racism.

I still dont understand the whole concept of separating our race into colors, its stupid. Height or weight or personality are way more defining. In fact instead of having just a few races, I think every single person makes up his own race, since no two people are alike.
