Title: NRA gun app for I-phones
Post by: sirmissalot on January 14, 2013, 03:22:16 PM: I didn't read the whole thing but it doesn't seem as bad as they are making it out to be. Ages 4 and up might be a bad idea I guess but it's just a game where you shoot at a target isn't it? Those look more like targets than coffins to me too. Are anti gunners really that paranoid they think a simple shooting game, which shoots targets inside a shooting range should not be accessible to younger kids? I don't see anything violent but like I said I just briefly read it.

Good one!

I guess we'd all be seeing shrinks from playing cowboys and indians with the cap guns our parents got us, and they'd probably get investigated for buying them for us. Not to mention the explosive charges in the caps.
