I hate Kenny for what he did to Larry..... Who knows.... he could have been saved
But NO! Kenny crushes poor bastards head with salt lick. ( I did the same thing in my 1st play trough, because in that save I was on Kenny's side.... )
Kenny takes too many unnecessary risks in my opinion.
BTW I just can't be with out taking care of Clementine..... TTG are really fucked up if they kill her.....
Personally I laughed my ass off but thought of it more as a poor judgement call rather than being racist. So I didn't think anything of it.
Me as well, I also think Kenny did not really ment it that way.
And since Lee did had to go to jail... well..... He is not in the position to be mad lol.
I think Kenny is ignorant of all cultures other than his own, so it's not personal. He probably thinks us Brits go around wearing monocles and tophats.
I took it as kind of a joke, but for Kenny to look down a little on Lee like that makes me dislike him a little bit.
All things considered hes worse than Larry, sure he was a dick, but he was just protecting his daughter. You'd be a bit shifty if there was a murderer in your group.
LOL. I do consider the comment rather harmless. We ALL are racist to at least some degree and subconsciously adhere to some ideas that aren't exactly politically correct.
Anyone who insists otherwise is a liar or a moron.
It makes sense that in high stress situations (like, say, a zombie apocalypse) a comment like that might slip out and immediately afterwards you would realize what a load of crap you just said.
But I do think they put this scene in the game for a reason. Kenny is getting very high strung and antagonistic. He's a potential snapper and it may very well happen down the road.

Between the picklocking and the "it'll be handy to have a guy around who can knock some heads" comment in the first season, I suspect Kenny might know about Lee and he was quickly covering himself by pretending to be racist!

Ah, probably giving him far too much credit.
LOL, I think you hit the nail on the head! That comment was probably more meant to illustrate that Kenny is a dunder head as opposed to racist or malicious.

Ah, probably giving him far too much credit. He's not a mastermind, right?
Yes, you're right, maybe he knows something...
When Kenny apologizes saying "Man, I'm from Florida..." I think "Man, you're a redneck and no matters where are you from"
Personally I laughed my ass off but thought of it more as a poor judgement call rather than being racist. So I didn't think anything of it.
So did I, he said himself to disregard it instantly after he said it, he knew it sounded racist and is there anything Kenny is, it's not a racist, he is a emotional hot head that might not always take the best decisions when fearing for the lives of his family or friends, take for example:
Kenny wanting to smash the lock in the barn with a hammer, instead of finding a screwdriver as Lee points would be a much smarter choice.
Kenny rushing out and attacking Danny to save Lee.
Or when Kenny rushed Andy and gets shot instead of flanking him together with Kenny so they could have jumped him together.

People are pretty strange sometimes. Kenny has a lot of faults, being a racist isn't one of them. I shouldn't be surprised though, after all, there was a thread about Larry being a racist and possible child molester (still have no idea how people could even reach that conclusion). Kenny is just impulsive and spoke before he thought.
and the flip side to this is kenny may of been hinting that he knows about lee's criminal past and thus made the assumption he knew how to break in....
Kenny's only prejudice is towards saving his own cowardly skin, along with his family.
To that end, he'll sacrifice group members of any colour, creed or sexual/gender orientation with the most righteous social equality ever witnessed before or after the end of the world as we know it.

I believe it's pretty racist actually. Lee is a university teacher and Kenny doesn't know about his past (if he knew he would never let Lee around his family). So the first things that go through his mind are that a black person can fight and pick up locks...
Leaving Shawn pinned under the tractor at Hershel's farm, not so much.
In my playthrough, Kenny also abandoned me during the scuffle with Danny. Despite the fact I'd had his back in every way up to that point, with the exception of sending Larry for a dirt nap.
If you have Kenny's back in every dispute, he'll be there for you in a pinch. Otherwise, watch out. You could end up walker bait.

Yes that is racist of you. As if white people can't be urban.
Leaving Shawn pinned under the tractor at Hershel's farm, not so much.
I'm sorry, maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but leaving Shawn to rescue his son is not "sacrificing" him, it's Kenny rescuing his freaking son. As a father myself, I can assure you, if I saw two people about to be killed, and one of them was my son and the other was some guy I'd just barely met, then I'm rescuing my son, I don't care who the other person is. It has nothing to do with sacrifice and everything to do with parenthood.

People here need to remember that the scene is WAY different too, depending on who Lee tries to save. If you go for Duck, there isn't really a chance for them to save Shawn, anyway, as you have to struggle to get Duck free from the walkers. If you pick Shawn, it's almost feels like Duck was in no danger at all, the way Kenny just picks him up off the tractor. It really makes Kenny feel a lot more like a coward for not returning to help you than in the other situation.

you mean you don't?? well, that just crushed my whole image of Brit's!
heh just kidding man!
Nah, I dindt think much of it myself rather than an idiotic comment.
But you can also assume the same thing of Lily being in the Air Force.
She could have been in admin or a aircraft mechanic. To think she has leadership skills or combat training simply based on her backround is just wrong.
Aslo, Larry called Lee "boy" a couple time's. that's more racest than Kenny asking lee if he can pick locks!
Comments
I would tend to agree with this - it's clear that Kenny doesn't mistreat him, even if he does have prejudices.
But NO! Kenny crushes poor bastards head with salt lick. ( I did the same thing in my 1st play trough, because in that save I was on Kenny's side.... )

Who is the racist.
Kenny saying he is urban and all. Or you for assuming he says so because Lee is black.

Vain closing this thread in 3... 2... 1...
So you're saying you don't?
God no. We wear bowler hats.

In Kenny I trust. (The prick).
He didn't sacrifice anyone.
Larry's licking is debatable.
Leaving Shawn pinned under the tractor at Hershel's farm, not so much.

I'll be trying my luck with Lilly in episode 3.
Yes that is racist of you. As if white people can't be urban.
Why for calling Lee "urban" and you assuming being Urban has anything to do with black people and assume it is bad related.
White people can be urban to.:guybrush:
Aexra, I still don't get it. I didn't say any of those things... You either read somebody else's comment or you misunderstood mine.

That's a good point.
This video captures one side of the story pretty well. > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=figIut7pnSI
Really? It was a joke. I guess the game should lack those and any type of character development or background...
you mean you don't?? well, that just crushed my whole image of Brit's!

This is true but it was apparent(to me anyway) that Kenny was using "Urban" as a stereotype of black people from the city.:D
