This is only a morsel of the ignorance displayed by the Grand Theft Auto series of video games.

that is excactly the reason they dont want us to have guns becouse then we would have the power they think if they take the guns away they will never be harmed becouse they have the guns that they took from us.

This is what your average person see's. Not to hard to see where the negative thoughts come from.

Yep, made me angry also. Well they got one thing right. More folks with guns, i believe makes for less crimes. Thats about it. The other hibbyjibby is what the brainwashers try to inject in the heads of the younger generation. A great marketing tool in advertisment. A great percentage of us cherish our freedom and also don't worry much as we have our own ways of keeping our families safe. Just as the second was meant to be. It does not surprise me that most of the kids today are getting their heads full of this kind of crap and producing the excitement as a real life parallel, thats easier than punching some one that pissed ya off. Just pull the trigger, and its over. I'll bet that company "machinima.com has a lot of money from capitalizing on the younger crowd.....I would rather just shoot my guns for real. Pretending, seems to bring trouble later on to those that think its cool......

Disagree strongly with the video. Responsible people with guns don't act that way.

I found that if I clicked on You Tube I did get a page that said it couldn't be displayed.
I'm use to clicking on the square box in the middle of the screen, which is not there.

Hey, that ignorant younger generation you refer to is me. Yes, indeed it is a violent game, but it is a game nonetheless. To say it causes harm in Americas youth is total BS in my opinion. Maybe its because im part of the generation that likes the series, but, I have yet to see these games cause a kid my age to go out and massacre civilians on the street and murder policemen. I think those that blame the game for their actions are just using the game as a scapegoat. If what the media portrays about the games influence on children was real, we would all be dead by now......just my 2 cents.

Oh, the men and women portrayed in the game are not proper gun owners, they are most likely violent criminals or associates with the mob.

Also the grand theft auto series is known for its 'funny' advertisements for radio stations, gun manufacturers, clothing stores....etc etc....that exagerate and inflame and make fun of these things, whether the items or companies are real or not, in order to provide comic relief. I strongly suspect (Being a gta player) that this is one of those types of advertisements.

What gives it away is that 'Liberty City' is in fact a fake city within the Grand theft auto world. BTW...this video is an advertisement for Grand Theft Auto 4.

I find the video funny. I can't wait for GTA IV to come out for the PC. Stupid consoles.

As always, it's not the guns but the mentality of the people using them.... or NOT using them.

I thought it was being ironic over all, and probably meant as a joke. However, there are those gun nuts that have guns in every room of their house, the kitchen, the bathroom, the living room (I have seen them), and they have bullets laying around every where and they give gun owners a bad name.

At the same time you have PETA card carrying members who have never fired a gun and think if you take them away you will create a peaceful, hippy, loving society.


If you can't blame guns, or video games or heavy metal or rap music, what are you going to blame next?

Nobody took guns to school and shot their classmates when I went to school. I think these graphic videos cheapens death. I don't know what's going on, but somewhere, parents have dropped the ball on raising their children to be respectible of others and life in general.

Actually, they did. It just wasn't publicized like it is today, when freak happenings are portrayed as the way the whole world is.

Granted, it didn't happen nearly as often.
