[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 5412014, member: 59506"] Whether a game or not, there are some subjects that need to be addressed with more sensitivity than others. This subject is one of them. Whether a game or not, and for many people, this supplement clearly stepped over the line of good taste into the realm of outright offensive. It's also not just one guy with an axe to grind. Just doing a casual search will bring up other forums and threads, some with diehard Shadowrun fans, that feel the same way. This text and the author of this text was, at the least, misguided as to the subject matter and it's treatment. And, simply as a result of the chosen subject matter, it is inarguably offensive to many people...PERIOD. For some subjects, such as this one, there are no mitigating factors, whether contextual or gameworld defaults, that will ever make it acceptable. And, I find calling such people "Clueless" to be offensive also. [/QUOTE]
