Just like the santa in your avatar. The santa isn't walking away, it's just an animation of a santa walking.
There is nothing which shows one man is beating another to death. It's just one punch, looped over again..
This is a pretty weak argument, but i guess i will address it. Firstly, he doesn't have to be beaten to death for the avatar to be offensive. Secondly, your argument that it is just an avatar being looped over and over again is silly.
That is like arguing that it would be ok to have an exposed female breast as an avatar. You could argue that the breast in the avatar was just getting ready to be used as a nursing device.
