"Being involved in a shootout in a video game has no consequences and that is the wrong message to send to young people."

wrong again as usual... the game penalizes by removing cash and in older ones weapons.
it also forces you to restart the mission if you were on one.

shooting someone in the game just like reality, the cops come to stop ya, and 9 out of 10 times they'll overpower ya before you ever get away.
granted you get up and walk away from it later on.
but irregardless there is penalty.

besides that, why do they specificly target GTA?
what about say, Mario.
stomping on things and eating mushrooms with benefit.
no complaints with bashing things skulls in and shrooming?
guess thats okay then..

lumi: Ooh, and to prove the validity of their arguments, they've deleted all the comments from the gamers/outsiders, and just left

lumi: Wow...there's worse invective and vitriol on that first feminist site's comments than in most gaming forums I've read...

SimonBob: You guys can read the feminist blogs? One of 'em has over 1400 comments -- my browser locks up when I try to load the page!

M. Carusi: That's probably the message to describe hardcore feminism in general. :P
Posted 07/24/08 at 10:35am
Tom90deg: Meh, it seems like most of the comments are "I'm right, and it you don't agree with me, you're a girl-hating masonogystic pig!"

M. Carusi: Those comment walls on the feminist blogs complaining about FP are generating some hilarious content.
