Not sure where to discuss this--off-topic...guns and politics...Books and Videos...or some other topic.

Anyway, heard a company is coming out with a new video game--Active Shooter--you can play the part of the school shooter or SWAT...

I think it is really sick but probably legal. What do you guys think?

Extremely poor taste. And when an active shooter attributes his actions to the video game, it will still be the NRA's fault.

It seems like you could put a skin on most fps games to get the same effect.

1st Amendment gives them the right... But still in poor taste. Someone or small development team trying to drum up some controversy to get some extra business.

THIS. the modding community is HUGE. there are numerous mods for many games like GTA that allow you to change skins. I remember there was a mod that changed grenades to resemble the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 that kept blowing up. It was funny but Samsung made them take it down. lol. yea... this type of game can be achieved with Garry's Mod, or anyone who knows how to mod games.

Very poor taste. But, protected speech.

It's been pulled by the host site that uses their engine. The developer of the game had been banned before on their service.
