Gun maker's other revenue stream

[gejohnston]

long story short, if you play Call of Duty etc, you are lining the pockets of Colt, FNH, etc.
Other question, is it hypocritical for "ant gun" people to play video games like call of duty?

1. I bet most anti-gun people don't know and when this gets publicized it will hurt the gamemakers

Maybe we need a smart phone app to find who supports the gun lobby.

2. As long as the game is fun, it will sell

I seriously doubt any organized boycott of games that license firearm likenesses will hurt gamemakers. If anything, it's easier for me to envision the media attention devoted to this supposed controversy will be like free advertizing for targeted games. This buzz will fuel additional sales.

3. If you don't like the idea of guns, don't play with the idea of what guns do.

It's fairly simple.

Product placement is everywhere. Everywhere. Don't be shocked if it shows up in video games.

4. Who says I'm shocked?

just amused.

6. I didn't mean you in particular.

I was using the generic "you". Sloppy writing on my part.

5. COD is a shitty game anyway.

Play some PR.
