How does that change it? The writers wrote that part too.

They intentionally made the one black character the only one who is not a scumbag and tries to help the hero while all the other chracters, all white are evil except the protagonist.

And something about Ghost Rider is he can see your sins and can sense evil. He wasn't just saying you did a good deed right there so I'm letting you off the hook. He was saying, "you're not guilty or a criminal unlike the rest in here"
