The world is taking things so seriously now just to compensate the lack of morals and values needed to accept responsibility for ones action that i don't blame EVGA. What they need is proper overlooking of pictures before giving the ok to put it up so they won't have to do this again.

I would say that is unbelievable...  but it's totally believable.  We are a bunch of wimps in this country.  That's why we can't win wars anymore!! 
 
Everyone gets offended so easy...  I can guarantee someone is offended by me saying we are wimps.  Political Correctness run a muck!!!

And yet, I'm sure you're all fully aware that this is a PC forum....

whatever happened to the idea of natural selection? when I was a kid I watched Road Runner shoot himself in the face with a cannon almost every Saturday morning.. I never fell off of an impossibly high cliff or shot myself out of slingshot into a wall. if you shoot yourself in the face while looking down the barrel of a gun... well, you kinda had that comin. If I were EVGA I would have just left it like it was and used the Tom and Jerry defense if someone tried to sue me over it....

Oh come on, you know you would have tried the rocket roller skates if given a chance.

most definitely.. but if I got hit by a truck doing it I would know who was to blame =P

I actually like the new one better anyway. 

ok so its not a swastica its a medical cross and this falls along the lines of stupidly abidding to people who should just be gotten rid of

So what's the official word on this. Who changed the picture and why. Please Official Statement from an EVGA REP!!!

I would be amazed if they made any sort of comment on the subject whatsoever. They're notorious for keeping mum about what goes on behind the scenes.

Interesting... Learn something new everyday. You'll never learn that in American Government Schools.

 
They dont teach much of anything real world, let alone history, basic science or basic math, unless you count the crap you've never use again after that semester.

Check out the white guy with the almost swastika on his arm!!!  What's that supposed to mean???  Now I'm offended!!!

A swastika implies Nazi, which means skinhead. Everyone should be offended by someone that proudly and visibly supports an extremist political ideology that resulted in the extermination of millions of Jews. If you're not, it says a lot about your character.

Actually, if you care to somewhat educate yourself about Skinhead culture, the real and original traditional Trojan Skins (Trads) of the late 60's were not racist. There are also present day groups that were originally formed in the mid to late eighties such as "SHARP" (skinheads against racial prejudice) and A.R.A (anti racist action) which I was involved in my younger years in the 90's and early 2000 with a Toronto and Montreal chapter. We would seek out Hammerskin's, Aryan Nation, Heritage Front, and other racist skinhead groups, but we were all a part of the tightly knit Punk and Trad Skinhead scene ... some good brawls back then, "Warriors" style lolz, got kinda crazy at times. Anyways, Skinhead culture isn't well understood, but just thought I would inform a little.

Unfortunately we didn't have any of those nice cuddly and squishy skin heads that Panzer is talking about in the city where I grew up.  All I saw were racist violent thugs.

Well that also depicts a person doing something incredibly dumb, looking down the barrel of a gun.  Under the right circumstances, it can be done safely, but if I were a parent, I wouldnt want the possible suggestion to be out there.  Kids make dumb mistakes and being that we are talking about a "Back to School" event, I think EVGA made the right call.

+1, EVGA made the right call, I don't know what big deal the rest of these guys are making getting offended that someone took offense.
 

Since When does a medic get to carry a laser gun ? LOL he might need it in here I guess.

Still want an official statement. I demand it or will take my business else were. If evga can be two faced, what else are they hiding in their closet.
