Finding Complaints About A Black Deadshot Is Really, Really Hard

will-smith-deadshot-1-134393

We know the drill. A beloved white comic book character from the sixties or seventies is announced as being played by a black actor in an upcoming TV or movie series. So we go online to try and find the outraged reaction, so as to mock it.

Except. Um…

No, that's not what I was looking for.

You and me both. Can you tell me if you find any?

This one is too complimentary….

Lo and behold, they've already gone and made Deadshot black. I really wish this pointless pandering would just stop. Yeah, maybe Will Smith is good for the role, but he isn't a perfect portrayal of the character, far from it.

This is probably the best I can do.

Finally! Um, but everyone be aware, she's not racist, okay?

But come on internet. You are known for being a hive of racially obsessed, bigoted, reactionary mouth breathers. But not one of you is stepping up to the plate. Here.

Almost as if most people got it out of their system with Nick Fury, And are really grateful that we didn't have David Hasselhoff in Winter Soldier….
