Did anyone else notice that the flower delivery guy, that rang the door to Gumb's home (the mistaken one), and the TACT (mistakenly referred to in the movie as SWAT) team member, that opened the elevator hatch door, were both African-American? "Let's send in the black guy..."
WTH!
The SWAT team member who uses the mirror to identify "Hannibal" on the lift and then fully exposes himself to shout to Hannibal to move away from the handgun is white. The black swat team member is called to make the shot.
If anything the black guy is called in as a specialist sharpshooter to make the shot the other guys can't make.
But i digress the film isn't about race.
A black person delivering flowers? Who looks positively ANGELIC compared to WHO HE IS DELIVERING THEM TO? Ok, I guess that is pretty racist!
shareIf the SWAT guy had been white, somebody would have complained that black people weren't fairly represented in positions of responsibility, making the movie racist. You can't win.
shareYou seriously need to get a life!
shareThe orderly at the hospital who treated Clarice with class and respect was a black guy. Oh my the racism is deep in this movie.
shareReally ignorant post, just dumb.
shareHow you ever reached that conclusion is beyond me. I'd say the OP has some issues with race himself.
shareReaction formation 101. Condemn every silly little thing as "racist" in order to hide your own discomfort with being around people who don't look like you. The rest of us are busy just living our lives.
