Jesus_lol Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 How is this video any worse than people firing guns and threatening to shoot the president at political rallies? I've tried arguing against that here but hit a brick wall, however a fake video made as a joke gets a pretty derisive reply in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tasteless and disgusting joke, but still just a joke. I don't think people who fire guns at Obama's speeches are joking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Looks like a bad Monty Python sketch. Yeah, nothing's more effective in getting me to join your cause than "Conform, or we'll blow you up!" Even though obviously joking, incredibly lame and in poor taste. Yeah, it'll generate attention, but it makes them look like idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The thing that made it worse was that its making involved a classroom of children. Children are confronted with very graphical video games. But do we give in and bring it to the classroom as well? This no doubt was intended to give it the false endorsement that because it's taught in class it must be correct. It's somebodies or groups opinion and to imply that it is taught in class as fact is a lie in itself. And some crazy at a political rally waving a fake gun doesn't justify the making of crazy videos. It's the same as saying everybody sins so then it's OK for me to do it too. Utube makes an attempt at restricting it from under 18s. I had to log into my account to view it there. So they think it a bit over the top as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
