Obvious troll is obvious. But alright, I'll play. This is not CoD. This game is targeted towards everyone and all countries. It takes names from Norse mythology, Japanese history, Russian names and so on. Your guardian doesn't have to look like the average American hero: broad shoulders, big jaw, blue/green eyes and blonde. At the same time, they'll alienate and cause endless anger (and justified!) comments everywhere. Can you imagine if they suddenly had that flag skin on Gally? I wouldn't blame people from other countries for targeting the strongest weapon in the game towards Americans because that's exactly what they'd be doing if they did that. What about the trolls claiming that if you own Gally but are not an American, then you need to dismantle it? Someone with a slight accent would be harassed easily by a troll. Bungie would be giving them a reason to do so. Not only that but then why not give Suros a Mexican flag skin? Or Thorn with a French flag skin? How would everybody feel about that? Bungie is smart and cannot handpick their fanbase, especially in the condition that Destiny is in where they have a lot of damage control to make. Flags for profiles and whatnot are ok because that's YOUR identity. No one can tell you you're doing (your identity) wrong. But you cannot force someone's identity onto others. Not if you're smart.
