New Video Game Allows Players to Murder NRA President - Katie Pavlich

A new online video game is taking political discourse to a whole new level. We already reported the death threats being received by NRA executives and now, a video game which allows users to shoot NRA President David Keene in the head, has been released. The creator of the game identified as gizmo01942 Ediot says, "Share this everywhere, especially gun-nut and anti-game websites. Also see if you can't send it in to the NRA somehow, like through the feedback on their website or something." Gizmo also provides screen shots to viewers, which can be seen below.

The game is available for download and comes in the form of a zip file. During a press conference in December, NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre berated the video game industry for their use of violence saying, "Isn’t fantasizing about killing people all day really the filthiest form of pornography?”

This video game seems to be retaliation for the NRA's violent video game stance.

But, I realize that you can't help yourselves...it's a mental illness.
They are both wrong but the NRA is supposded to be a well respected organization, didn't LaPierre criticize video game violence and he turns around and with an app with targets in the shape of coffins, seems a bit insensitive don't you think. The game was created by a blogger it appears, he was wrong, the NRA with millions of members should have higher standards than some unknown, I remember LaPierre stating many NRA members have kids , maybe their leadership needs to start acting like sensible parents rather than 5 year olds.
