It's a guy in a suit. His suit happens to be black. HE happens to be black.

It shouldn't matter what Ranger wears what color when they have a certain skin color.

Skin color doesn't matter. Ever.

EDIT: As for being a thief: So what?

What im saying is that they said they would never give the black color to an Black Guy. Kinda like giving yellow to an Asian.

I read somewhere Saiban (And later Disney) tryed to avoid thing like that. As a Proof:

I just think its kinda weird...

And it seems like they made him the Black Ranger because he is black. It should be the one girl who is the black ranger since the black vehicle is a racecar zord and her personal profile is that she is a racecar driver.

Honestly.. A thread over something as silly as skin color?

I am locking this.


AND DON'T PM ME WHINING ABOUT WHY I CLOSED YOUR THREAD.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).
