I am sorry for posting what I did but I just coulnd let this go by without something being said about it.
That's the problem man, is people who 'just couldnt let it go'......if it bugs you then start a thread on why you feel the way you do. That'd be like me going in to yours and being like NAH GAMEGURU THAT"S RIDICULOUS, Sry I just couldn't let that go! And you would wish that I did, because there's no point in saying it besides to simply cause arguement.
No offense taken dude, but seriously, when it's not a thread about whether you think it's right or wrong, then you do need to let it go as it's already been said by a hundred million other people. It gets tiresome just like if your mom nagged you about your hair cut and she replies 'Sorry I just cant let it go'
It's like this comic I saw who made a joke on it and the audience said AHHHHH like it was cold hearted and he just replied 'Oh Im sorry too soon?' it was 40 freakin years ago people. It's a part of history and part of the glory that comes with being a president is fame and being in the public spotlight even in death....especially in death because humans have that curiosity about the death of ourselves.
Besides that, JFK was human just like the rest of us, he had mistresses, drank, of course there speculation of cocaine use, mafia intervention.......but people don't notice that do they? Nooooo they only focus on 'he was a man of the people and he died so that means everyone has to praise him'
Not hardly, he was human, he made mistakes, he did things he wasn't supposed to, and he died.
Now if they make a game where I get to play the roman army and nail jesus to the cross then maybe I'll say the game industry has stepped over a line.
They aren't profiting from his death either, they take the $9.99 and put it towards their contest. This is trying to prove once and for all what really happened if it is at all possible. Proving or disproving the 'magic bullet' is part of american history, part of JFK's history and there's no ignoring it.
Like geek said up there, people need to stop being so politically correct and afraid to offend someone. The point is of course some people will be offended. 6 Billion people on the earth and you really expect everyone of us to get along simply by ignoring all that is known as real life?
I don't know about you but there are far worse things going on than a president who was assassinated 40 years ago.
People just want something to gripe about so they are noticed. Reminds me of cartmans mom from south park......which is precisely who matt stone and trey parker are making fun of, those who just want something to gripe about that doesn't even pretain to them.
Sorry for the rant, but yeah I'm tired of hearing this same crap over and over
EDIT:
that we forget that we also play games, that have unfortunatley, profited off of wars, pain, death and suffering of other people.
Mucho respect towards you for atleast seeing it in that perspective guru. It's the same concept as a fat person trying to say smoking is unhealthy. Not to again quote southpark but there was on where rob reiner was on stuffing his face with food at every scene and was saying 'CIGERETTES ARE BAD'
I think people have forgotten, no one on earth is sinless and above all. "Thou Shalt not Judge" as that's gods duty not ours
