Should GI Joe CANCEL Spirit and Quick Kick?

The Story about how two GI Joe members might have been considered racially offensive.

Spirit and Quick Kick are two of the most popular GI Joe characters from the eighties, even if some may consider them to be negative racial stereotypes. But is this really a big issue? What are your thoughts on the matter? DO these Joes represent the best or the worst of their respective races? Or Are they all just Real American Heroes?

Every toy in my collection has a story, how I came upon it, why I bought it or even just some random or obscure bit of info about it. Admittedly not all of them are amazing, funny or interesting...but I think some of them are, and I'd like to tell you about them...one toy at a time.
