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.

    If someone is truly comfortable with who or what they are, then no amount of criticism would ever affect them. Taking offense from something is as much a choice has the person trying to give offense. Most of the time, when someone does take offense to something, it's because there is some truth in it. And I don't think that Nolan was trying to give offense in that manner either. He was just stating his opinion on someone. Just because someone is a transsexual does not mean that they deserve special treatment in anyway. EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON THESE FORUMS has said something degrading or offensive to someone before INCLUDING OP. There are no exceptions.
