there is a gmae wher you play the assasin of JFK, but WHY do you want to kill a US president? Well unless you are a communist,Al Quaida terrorist or doucheFumbleumble said:
And I'd gladly shoot quite a few of them, as they're just virtual copies and the character in the game isn't me but just "Generic Soldier Boy #56094123".Fumbleumble said:
I'd probably not dare shoot Teddy Roosevelt, the man survives shots to the chest and then kills bears with his bare hands... *shiver*
Oh please. Maybe if the game depicted the US assassinating somebody that wasn't an abjectly fucking disgusting human being who didn't deserve to live in the first place then this would be an issue. Honestly, the reason they picked this game in particular to be "pornographic" is because they're Castro sympathizers. If they really supported ending all "depictions of American militarism," they would be more uniform in their measures and criticize Wolfenstein for depicting US soldiers killing nazis. They won't, however, because nazis cross their unknowable and arbitrary threshold of people that are okay with being killed in hypothetical video game scenarios. Their double standards are seriously just stupid; I hope nobody takes them seriously.

So, Schindler's List is OK; Orange Clockwork is ok, but this is not? Sigh... some people.
Disclaimer: I loved both movies like they were, a masterpiece of the dark side of our hearts.

Nobody expects this to succeed in any way, not even the AFGJ. They're just trying to get some attention by making inflammatory statements. Groups like this always need something new to complain about and crusade against or else people will stop supporting and funding them. Something has to be corrupting our morals and brainwashing our children every few months so they can keep existing.
They don't "advocate censorship of speech," eh? Then what do they call it then? These guys are one step removed from Bible thumpers brandishing torches and pitchforks (no offense to anyone except the AFGJ intended. Offense to the AFGJ very much intended). In fact the that's the first image that came to my head when I thought of these guys and this protest.
This game is rated 'M' so children aren't supposed to be playing it anyway, and if they are it's probably because some irresponsible parent or guardian bought it for them.
When will these reactionary fuckheads get in through their thick skulls that there are systems in place to protect minors from violent video games, more so than any other entertainment medium???

For those that dont see the point of the whole outrage on this subject -- yes, Im looking at you! ^^AstylahAthrys said:
You may be assassinating a decoy, but you are assassinating a real life previous president. Think about it, if *insert your country here*'s president was assassinated in a game -- decoy or not -- you would not be happy would you? Now, put your feet into Cuban shoes and think about it. You play a game, and you just assassinate your countries previous president -- DECOY OR NOT. It just doesnt feel right that -- game or not -- you would go about doing such a thing.
From what I have heard -- haven't seen that part yet -- it is implied that you assassinated him. It doesnt actually show you shooting him as to leave it up to the players imagination. Im going off what I've heard here.Distorted Stu said:
If your children get off sexually to attempting to assassinate Castro, you have MUCH bigger problems.

Multiplayer has level ranks, no?Onyx Oblivion said:
And yeah. For a game that has an M rating, there are way too many kids playing it. But overall the controversy is nothing new. It's as probable to say that it was intended as a sales boost.
The next Call of Duty better have americans being killed. It would make them even with Cuba and Russia.
