I read about the mental studies behind showing a person's picture on the news and how it actually increases the likelihood of other people doing shooting sprees. A lot of kids and young adults that do this are unhinged and many seek attention. When they see other people shooting guns and getting their pictures plastered all over TV, it sends a very dark message to these kinds of people. No one is going to agree until reasonable people can be heard. Guns can't be made illegal because too many criminals hold unregistered firearms and the police are quite frankly not reliable enough to protect us (look at the 4 dudes that stood out of the school and did nothing). This, however, doesn't mean we can ignore guns completely. Guns are still a problem. If people truly want to stop school shootings, they should back the idea of having armed guards at every middle and high school in America. They should also back metal detectors being used and ID scans to get into these buildings. We have better security at our banks than our schools which is pretty damn sad.

Yup, that was me with the suggestion and I wanted to "be out there" I'd love for the game to be realistic too with it's main campaign but I also don't like games taking themselves so seriously when exploring new ideas (especially with DLC which is what this topic was all about). Let's assume they made it super realistic: in the original RDR though (i.e. before zombies): We'd have no dead-eye targeting Our weapons would be limited to what we could carry at the same time (because no way could we carry all of them at the same time realistically) Reloading guns would have taken A LOT longer and we'd have been limited again by how much ammo we carry We'd have no horse on call with just a quick whistle No "lock-on" for targets (sure you could try free aim but that would be worse for me when using a controller) etc. At the end of the day we play games as an escape and we all enjoy different things. Sure, balance it to keep it from being silly especially as far as the main campaign goes but at the same time keep an open mind and realize that we've already played Bioshock lol.
