Dutch Gay Guy vs Postal 2

by Steve Gibson Jan 23, 2003 1:05pm CST tags: Postal 2, Postal
I'm not really sure how to present this one, but it appears that in the Postal2 game one of the many types of people that you kill in your rage against the system are apparently homosexuals. A Dutch gay activist is upset about this and feels that it is discrimination against gays. (Thanks to like 8 people!)

"It is disgusting. In the Netherlands we have anti-discrimination laws to protect people from discrimination based on sexual preference and that makes it easier to do something," Krol said on Thursday.

As far as I can tell, Postal 2 has always been intended as an equal opportunity murder simulator.

update Jack - This gay Dutch guy is not Maarten by the way, as we're pretty sure that Maarten isn't Dutch.

"I don't have anything against gays, but I fuckin hate the Dutch."223 Comments
