So, I heard about this new video game. It is one of the paintball games, where people shoot at other people and try to hit the various targets. Except with this game, the targets are the people running as Presidential candidates - Romney, Guiliani, etc.

It seemed like a pretty funny game to me, but some people do not see it that way and are made about it. :grumpy:

lol, two pages? Must be pretty interesting. Shooters aren't really my style though.

I can understand how some would be angry about a game like this especially considering all the recent school shootings and other type shootings around the world today. It makes me uneasy to think about it too. I can only imagine how it must make the candidates themselves, and their families, feel about it. It doesn't seem right somehow, even in a video game.

Well, I look at it like this. How would you feel if someone was shooting a picture of you with a gun, without asking for your permission to use the picture? It might be fun for the people playing the game, but it's also disrespectful to the real people.

And when targeting political candidates running for president, that's a rather unwise idea. I can see some overly eager law enforcement official trying to stir up trouble over it.
