Roadblock was originally going to be named Bubba. However Hama rejected it saying ” it's racist, derogatory and stupid. Nuff said”.
However Dusty did refer to someone in the desert as a ” camel jockey”.

I think the white font on this website is racist. Why can't we type in black? Or can the man not handle that?

What's wrong with camel jockey? As long as the person is actually with a camel I don't believe it's racist.

And the public! How they sterotype the toy collectors! We are not just 110 pound, acne faced kids with nerdy glasses who sit at computers all day!
It's on topic, so you know.

First of all, the characters existed in the comic book long before they became cartoon characters. Was the comic book creators racist? As for "Racism", I can tell you this... I was born and raised in california, and therefore I neither speak nor understand very much spanish: I've been on the recieving end of racism, and the worst racists were hispanics who treated me like a pile of cow manure because I didn't smoke, drink, listen to spanish music, make obscene gestures and equally obscene remarks at passing women, and didn't behave like they did. I was called by them (Sorry, but like I said, I neither speak or understand very much spanish, and none of the slang spanish that's used.) "Californiero" and "Chaco de Focho", whatever those terms mean. However, all this never bothered me, any more than the G.I. Joe character Roadblock being black or a chef should bother me or anybody else.
