You didn’t say “it has no place in a gaming forum”, you just said “remove BLM”.

This feels like a giant bait post.
Go and do something that matters. Tear down the statues of imperialist scumbags, things that actually matter, compared to… pixels in a 12 rated game.
Get a grip, you’re doing nothing more than the most lightweight liberal style “I’m helping too” thing.

BLM: Don’t blame all of us for the actions of a few rioters.
Also BLM: ACAB! Abolish the Police!
Gee can’t imagine why people with common sense are against BLM.

i said, remove BLM as in remove it from these forums, it’s all over the place
And it’s not illegal to have a negative opinion about BLM, nor it should be. There’s a strong case that can be made against that organisation. For example, anyone that asks anyone else to kneel down and kiss their boots.

i didnt read the topic. But i dont need to. South Korean Police and Swedish Police are not the same as American Police. Grow up. Not every country on earth has a f-ed up society or police system as the us has.

he was with the union… he fought to end it… maybe research Ulysses S. Grant because he should honestly be the mascot of BLM since he actually helped black people
How the hell is this thread still up?!

The statues most commonly being torn down are those of confederates and you know it
I earned my Officer D.VA skin and I absolutely love it. Its probably my favorite skin in the game other than Oasis Symmetra and Alpine: 76. I just wish they would give Officer D.VA shades because I feel they’d go great with the skin. I don’t think Blizzard wants to piss off possibly millions of players who have these skins. There is absolutely nothing wrong at all with having them in game.
Makes me more likely to use the Police D.Va skin…because I had to endure playing HotS for it and I find the siren hilariously informing of where the other team needs to be to gank my stupid pixels 
I have a sneaking and underinformed opinion that most of these revisionist history urges are an effort to make history begin at the same time as the social media popularity explosion.
As the ancient song goes “reruns all become our history”.

because Blizzard support BLM they don’t want to be called out for being a racist. BLM doesn’t care about black community its about breaking the system and replace it. Sad part is they admit that.

If Blizzard HAD to remove anything, it should be McCree’s Noose spray.
The amount of Doonfist, Lucio, and Baptiste sprays I have seen Noosed is… unusual.
Although, I have seen every type of Hero spray in the Noose, but those three seem to get it more than others.
Hows this topic still up…
It’s a better argument to remove a tool used for HANGING people since at large it was a punishment doled out by mobs of racists.
But I’ve never seen this. It’s rare to even see one in my 4000 levels of overwatch - There is simply a better reason than acting like you’ve seen lots of something you haven’t because you wanna be included. There is a great reason that is not this.
The mods unflagged it personally after it was flagged down for trolling. Just try flag it, the trolling category is gone, and that is how you know it was personally unflagged. Doesn’t matter this guy pisses on BLM as a movement by hijacking it yet again for some dumb crap, why waste the favor of it on something that DOES NOT HELP? So annoyed with BLM in general, it was hijacked so damn fast by mostly white antifa, how do you simultaneously fight for “black rights” get the ball rolling and then come in with your whacko crap and then bomb it for them by using them to get what YOU want and… god it pisses me off beyond belief, and it pisses me off that the mod didn’t understand that’s what they were unflagging, genuinely mad about it. I’m mad that no one actually seems to CARE about actual black lives, they’ll say they matter, and actively piss on their mission towards making things better for them… the salt is flowing from me.
Yo I don’t agree with the guy saying police skins should be removed but… This ain’t nowhere close to the book burnings.
We can’t just be removing police themed content in games because of real life matters.
Was that person in the wrong?
Yes, and I hope they get enough reports that they get banned.
Should we be removing such content for existing?
No.
Because police as a whole are not the blame. It is the people who don the badges and uniforms who use their power to abuse a people who have suffered for generations.
You do not blame the whole for the actions of the few.
The police are not the problem, the abusers are.

How about removing guns in the game because it can kill someone?

Hi person who lives in Sweden here. Swedish police are way different from American police, from my experience Swedish police tend to be more “casual” and respecting (like people would’ve figured) sometimes to the point that they are doing a bad job of being police. There’s no real reason to harp on Swedish police (who like mentioned earlier are different) for something they didn’t do.
That and there would be no point of removing these skins, you’d just be making people miffed about something that won’t have an effect anyways.

Remove the player not the content. 
I’d much rather you experience a triggering moment that reveals and results in the removal of a racist rather than have that same person polluting other games with their stench of indecency all because perfectly innocent sprays & skins were removed to avoid being abused.
