Nolan North Transphobic Comment on Twitter

https://twitter.com/nolan_north/status/636942232629587968 Hey Bungie, maybe not hire people that make transphobic jokes like these? 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at some point during their life. Jokes like these lead to our society not taking trans people seriously. If you want Nolan North to do the Ghost voice for you, tell him to apologize for this comment. It has seriously lowered my anticipation for TTK. Thanks.

  • What a sad time it is in the world. It's a joke. Trans people are no more immune to jokes than everyone else and I doubt north meant anything bad by it. Grow the -blam!- up and get over yourself.

    I love how every little freedom fighter heard the word "transphobic" in the past couple months, and now that's all they can say. Jesus. No. I can't stand Caitlyn Jenner because that wasn't bravery. Laura Jane Grace was brave. She was beaten after the operation. She received death threats daily. The music industry didn't take kindly to it. She was brave. Caitlyn has nothing on Laura.

    • Don't see how it's transphobic. I am however offended by how easily people are offended. Grow up children.

      • I don't care. I don't know why you care. I don't know why anyone would care. This politically correct society makes me wanna vomit and put a bullet in my head. Does that make you care about how I feel? I doubt it.

        • Read your post. My first thought is this OP-"look at me i get offended for other people over jokes. Keep looking at me though cause im a special snowflake" If this person was offended they should say something not you. But they didnt cause guess what. They dont care. My advice take two shut-the-fuq-ups and call me in the morning. real people don't care it was a simple joke. And you are why we cant have more mel brookes movies

            • Wait... We're really saying that implying that Caitlyn Jenner looks like a bearded man is "transphobic?" Really? This is a thing now? How dumb.

            • I dont even understand how the word transphobic came into play here. He isnt showing any sign of fear of transgender people. That isnt even discrimination.. It just looks like a joke to me. He even said "her".

                • What ever happened to making a small joke with out people a huge deal about it. I get that there are people who are real douchebags to other about their choices, but come on. One joke doesn't make him a bad guy.
