I still wonder why it is that they, being Germans of all people, chose that illustration of that particular situation :hmm: Something seemed a little fishy.

Personally I don't find anything awfully terrible about the statement itself, I mean whatever. I could be surrounded by roaring Vikings in a Norwegian fjord, or crazed Canadians in a hockey rink or something. But I'd need to be convinced that the mention of black americans in Bronx and not, say, a bunch of thugs in Berlin, is purely incidental.

Political correctness? Yeah whatever. I spit on that, but I think training an army to kill n*ggers should be at least a little disturbing. It suggests a dehumanization tactic, a 'them and us' approach that deeply disturbs me and distances me from some of the views which I don't disagree with (i.e. "Islam is bad") because their dehumanizing implications disturb me ("...therefore let's not feel bad about killing them").

If the example is purely incidental, I'd drop any pretenses.
