    Arrow New "must have" video game for hardcore Repubs

    There is a new and awful (imho) video game out that is sure to be on the top of many a hardcore Repub's Xmas wish list.

    Its called JFK Reloaded.

    Here's their website so you can get an idea of what its about:

    Aww come on people.... I have many hardcore republican family members and they are APPALLED at this new game.

    Why does this make it seem like republicans are ok with the fact that a president was murdered??

    Noone in their right mind would favor or support this despicable video game. I would personally favor boycotting any store that sold it.

    I was 10 years old when JFK was shot and everyone Republican and Democrat alike cried. For most Americans alive at the time it was the saddest day before 9/11.

    Especially when,I don't know, maybe there might have been some Democrats involved in the death of JFK. Don't believe that the Democrats are the party that's looking out for the best interests of the American people. Politicians in general are lying, cheating, scum, doesn't matter witch party they belong to. If you believe otherwise I would say you are being more than naive. Politicians don't care about their constituents, only about getting re-elected.

    Stores don't sell it, it's a download.

    Ok...
    MY point is that NO ONE would favor this game, except a bunch of assholes. ANYone condoning the assassination of JFK needs to be slapped a few times and then thrown in jail.

    What I was saying was, that the post made it seem like ALL die hard republicans would condone the game. I am not saying all democrats are looking out for america, just as not all republicans are either.

    Officially they (the game's creators) say that it's to show that one man killed Kennedy, and that all the conspiracy theories are bullshit.

    I'm all for that, but they could have gone down a more tasteful road.

    As for the other argument, i don't know too many conservatives who root for oswald.

    Pretty bold claim, considering the people who made the game are from Scotland. Or has our military invaded them, annexed their territory and made it a red state now?

    I'm a Republican and I think the country would have been a whole lot better if JFK was able to serve out his full term and maybe another. The creators of this game are foreigners who seem to like pushing our collective buttons. I find it to be completely repugnant.

    I heard about it on another political message board-- it was described as a must have for die hard repubs. But that's not really the point anyway-- The point of starting this thread is the game itself .

    not much offends me anymore but this game is something even I can't help but find offending... to make it worse the game was released on the 31st anniversary of the assassination, absolutely disgusting in my opinion!

    I shouldn't let this bother me. I shouldn't let anything on this site bother me, ever.

    A man very close to me, now deceased, was a "hard-core" Republican who was polite, generous to strangers, and wept openly when Kennedy was assassinated. For those of us alive at that time, we remember the shock and sorrow of the nation as a whole. The fact that a President had been assassinated was shattering. The easiest reaction to dislike at that time was Vice President and fellow Democrat LBJ, who couldn't wait until the body was cold to take the oath of office.

    JZ,
    LBJ's reaction was the correct thing to do for the time. Coming a little over a year after the Cuban Missile Crisis, the first fear of any sane person (at the time) was that the Russians were behind it, and would move to take advantage of the vaccuum at the top and launch a first-strike. This was near the peak of the cold war. As unseemly as it may be, the Russians had to know someone was in charge here and that the military was not going to take over.

    PS This was amplified by Jackie being at his side in the photo of the swearing in.

    I think it's just disgusting. But then again, I feel that way about more than a few games. I also feel that the educational spin that has been placed on it is absurd.

    No, it singles out a certian section of the party. And besides it's just one persons opinion anyway. We all have opinions, that's hers. I just don't see the problem with that.

    I agree with you though that anyone who would enjoy this game is not in their right mind.

    My response to the header is: Such a game is abhorrent to anyone of any political persuasion. I say that as a sometimes-conservative, sometimes-liberal, sometimes-Democrat, sometimes-Republican. If a Republican took delight in the game, I'd denounce that view. If a Democrat wanted to imply that game was enjoyable for Republicans, I would criticize that view.

    Hope I covered it all.

    Thankyou Madcap.

    I am surprised and disturbed that there is no age verification. This is not a U.S game though so is there anything that can be done to change that ?
