'Columbine RPG' Creator Discusses the Dawson Shooting

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Wednesday September 20, 2006 @08:23AM from the touchy-culture dept.

Back in May, Brian Crecente of Kotaku and the Rocky Mountain News had a chat with the maker of the 'Columbine RPG'. Today, he talks again with game-maker Danny LeDonne about possible connections between his game and the Dawson shooting. From the article: "My very first reaction, frankly, was to head to my toilet bowl and throw up. I knew what was in the works and I knew the next week would be spent keeping my head above water while the press tried to bury me with guilt-laden questions and implications of complicity in murder. I also knew that this was no time to fold or get weak-kneed. I made a game. I believed in it. Now it was time to defend it. No one would do that except me."

You don't see a WWII "extermination camp simulator" do you?
WWII is also ~60 years removed from 2006. Columbine happened how many years ago?
Columbine game involves shooting unarmed children.

There's bad taste and then there is moral bankrupcy.
