Is marijuana the best medicine?

I think the parody is funny, people need to take it as a joke. Yes the real deal is not funny, but GTA has always been over the edge on parody and sick humor. I can also take a rocket launcher and frag everyone in the internet cafe. In real life that wouldn't be funny either.

Well, thanks to them, I now know a way to jack my wanted level up real fast!

Same here, but replace "wanted level up" with cock.

EDIT: Mods, please advise me if this post is pushing things too far.

Wow, some people just can't take a joke for what it is... Should we be forbidden to make jokes about pedophiles?

 

It is definitely an overreaction, but joking about sexual assaults, especially on children, is treading on very thin ice.  Consider that a huge percentage of women (perhaps 1 in 3) have been affected by sexual assaults, and many have been affected while they were children.  At that age, it can easily become something that can define your entire life.  Even the mention of something similar can make people who have been molested upset.

I'm not saying this is worth attacking, I'm simply explaining how people can focus energy attacking something like this.



who cares, if people get so easily offended by this it's their problem not ours. You can't just hide from reality by attacking anything that offends you, people need to suck it up and deal with it.

You sound exactly like the following comedy bit from the Ron and Fez show on XM satellite radio:

People should be able to distinguishe a joke in a game from reality and not grab at straws like they do with this.

Of course people get offended by this.

I mean, millions of people surf on pedo website, have they been that quickly tracked down??? Absolutely not.

Such twist of reality has NO BUSINESS doing in a video game.

I say we sue T2
