I disagree - there is no human being like Gus. Most peoples instinct is to fight back either physically or mentally. Gus's reaction (as ordered by the scriptwriters) is to cower in the corner like the good old days of slavery- but even slaves fought back!!

And despite his nice guy image nobody gives a s*** now that he's gone. That should be a lesson to any black actor who thinks they're on the same level as their white counterparts.
