It's a shame that race always ends up being a minefield, even here.
There are not that many types of male characters that you would want to add in games like this. Creepy cameraguy, and the stupid jock are reasonable picks for the setting. Yes, they are stereotypes, possibly offensive to some but that does not equate to "haha black people". Don't always equate the depiction of one character as the sole representative of the developers view of that character's entire race. That way madness lies.
You're free to be offended and dislike the way he is portrayed but don't automatically jump from "I don't like how they made this character" to "The devs are racists".
