If a character is shown as a hunter or shooter, for instance shooting a rifle at a benchrest, or with trophy heads on his wall, you can be absolutely certain he will be portrayed as a villain.
And we call them all "L&O, ELEVATOR INSPECTORS UNIT" (some Freeper made it up...).
LOL.
Clearly AA at work. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll have to start keeping score.
I suppose part of it is to have some type of balance but it would seem that since Blacks make up about 10-12% of the population that it would be unlikely that you would get black/white combinations perhaps 80% of the time and something like 95% of that being Black male/White female.
Clearly someone is doing this on purpose.
Clearly. And note the composition of the extras -- the actors passing by or standing around in the background. It's generally over 90% female/minority.

I believe you're right. I'll have to keep tabs on that set-up, too.
