Some people (not saying you, at all) are too ready to excuse him, and I find that pretty fucking horrible. I've met Beckett and found him to be a gentlemen of the highest order, a completely lovely human being who thinks *carefully* about what he says and who he says it to. Gabe is one of his BFFs and I do NOT get that, I really dislike it. Similarly, Travis McCoy is one of Gabe's BFFs, and there are a few other black guys who Gabe must know, and Gabe *himself* is an immigrant, and yet he was still a racist douche and I get so fucking angry :/
