British Defense Boss Wants Medal Of Honor Banned
These types of stories just never fail to infuriate me. He’s just embarrassed himself hugely by saying how un-british it is to play a game.
Let’s be clear. Guns in real life are awful killing machines which in the wrong hands are some of the worst things imaginable.
The crimes of that taxi driver and others were horrific and it was a time when I was a bit wary going out because something like that could potentially happen anywhere at any time, although very unlikely.
That is true, but that fact is that I and most other people my age play games and they don’t consider guns in games as real guns. I suppose we’re desensitised and don’t consider them the same thing.
The reason why these stories are always so prevalent is because the people who don’t play games don’t have that same resistance to seeing guns in games, especially where this game is located may be close to home for some.
But still, people have to realise that playing this game or any other similar one is not un-british. It’s just a game.
I think it’s going to take quite a few more years before people can finally see games and movies as equals in terms of accepting their controversial natures whenever they happen.
In the end, they should be banning actual guns not games.
