where's Jack Thompson when you need him? (probably sticking needles into doug lowenstein dolls or eating babies)

It's called "Border Patrol." The object of the game is to shoot immigrants crossing the border -- but most say this goes beyond crossing the line.

The game shows immigrants crossing the border with a sign that reads welcome to the U.S., welfare office this way. The three targets: a Mexican nationalist, a drug smuggler and a breeder -- a pregnant woman with children.

The game says ‘kill them at any cost’. At the end of the game, it gives a score with a derogatory term.


I guess the scariest aspect is that somewhere, somehow there's a redneck with flash skills ..."we gone done founded teh internets"

Wow, Flash games are getting targetted now?

Here's the game, for anyone who wishes to play it.

It sucks anyways... it's just another reflex game.
 
Hey, it's free speech!
Which is why I intend to commission a "Kill all rednecks!" game.
Hey, it's free speech!

Oh no; a hugely racist, inflammatory game with incitement to violence in the real world under real social issues falls afoul of criticism. How could they do this!?

Kill.....me?
 
They're flash games on everything out there. Not exactly news.
 
yes but this is current because the issue of border control is a hot topic in the southern US
 
I'm all for border control, but not for racism.

...
 
Not bad technically speaking, but horrific in terms of content.

Propagandhi has a great song about this very issue--its called F*ck the Border. Here are the lyrics with commentary following:

A friend of mine dropped me a line, it said, "man, I gotta run to the USA. I got no money, got no job." She skipped out of Mexico to stay alive. You've got a problem with her living here, but what did you do to help her before she ****ing came? What did the country do? What did the people do? I stand not by my country, but by people of the whole ****ing world. No fences, no borders. Free movement for all. **** the border. It's about ****ing time to treat people with respect. It's our culture and consumption that makes her life unbearable. **** this country; its angry eyes, its knee-jerk hordes. Legal or illegal, watch her ****ing go. She'll take what's hers. Watch her ****ing go. **** the border.

Some people have to stay and fight for survival in the country they live in while others have to leave to survive. Corporations cross international borders all the time in search of people to exploit for profit and no one stops them. They call it globalization. On the other hand, the victims of corporate domination are told that they can't cross borders in search of better lives, and are forced to stay and deal with the social, economic and environmental messes the companies leave behind when they inevitably move their operations to places with even more "favourable business climatesî (re: lower wages, lax environmental laws, tax breaks). Looks like capitalism and human-rights don't mix.

the artwork is especially amateurish
It gets better.

EDIT: Ah, I thought you meant the artwork on the Propagandhi splash page--very amateurish, as it should be. Don't let the medium take away from the message! Yes, the artwork for the flash site isn't particularly ornate or intriguing at all....

Propagandhi are the best f**king band in the world.

In addition, rascism is bad.

Hahaha! Gick somehow finds all of my Propagandhi references and I love it! Good on ya! :thumbs:

Yes, this game is vile, but they, like other developers should not be censored because their content is vile. They should be free to make the games they want and it should be up to us as the viewing public to play or not play. 1st Amendment ftw!
 
Thats awful, but cbs take it all the way, is there any real need to go into such detail in their coverage, they literally review the game in detail and I think at some point one of their reporters say 'it's a pretty interesting game' lol.
 
I listened to some Propagandhi songs, and I thought they were awful. Message or no message. :p
 
This POS game won't load. Is this the game where you ride around on a bicycle and avoid police cars?

Well, I don't know if it's the same game I played, so take that into consideration.

Someone posted that the othe week on here. It's weak as hell, and isn't it a joke? People take that seriously as a big issue? I swear, maybe every time you see a politically incorrect bumper-sticker or hear a song that says kill whitey we should have a major campaign against music or bumper-stickers, and just ban them all together so we can all sit in traffic bored shit-less and we can all engage in road-rage.

What in the **** is it with video games? Can't... shake... these bastards. Get away from my games you ****ing loonies! like ****ing gnats!

So what you're saying is that if it were not for games, computers would only be used for typing essays and storing obscene amounts of pornography?:cat:
 
I find it fitting that firefox refused to play the game, while Internet Explorer loaded it up in a flash ... :rolleyes:

I think the adjective you want is "fitting", not "ironic". ;)
 
I fail to see the correlation between IE and blatant racism.
 
Eh, game won't load for me, but I can imagine it. I've got to say, this is getting too ridiculous now. First of all, obligatory sarcastic, "oh noes, RACISM on the INTERNETS!" Now that that's out of the way, let me just say that people are getting way too crazy with being PC and trying to make controversy with every little thing. For God's sakes, it's a flash game. So you shoot some illegal immigrants; well, whoop-de-shit. These kinds of things are all over the internet, for every race and demographic you can think of, but apparently it's ok for Mexicans to get their panties in a twist because border patrol's a big issue right now. Come on.

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's controversy for the sake of controversy. We are talking about an internet animation, not someone actually going out and committing any crimes. This is ridiculous and everyone knows it. "A redneck with flash skills," Stern? And what's with the "Propaghandi" song? Boo-hoo, capitalism, let's let everybody into the country because we're to blame. Listen to this story about my made up friend and feel bad because it's something YOU caused, Amerikkka! Well, I've got a song too:

"If I could be a superhero, I'd be Immigration Dude. I'd send all those foreigners back to their homes, for eating up alll of our food."
 
the game seems tailor made for you ...also find it ironic that you'd make a comment about my rediculing rednecks when in the same very same post you defend the game makers right to be racist

I don't follow.

I didn't think it could be any more obvious I was being sarcastic, but I guess I should have said /sarcasm. I'm not racist, but it's not a crime to be racist, it's just foolish. However, if someone creates a flash game that is racist, doing a big news article only gives it more attention that it deserves, IMO. Once again, I didn't play the game, but who is to say the game creator isn't just making a joke or being ignorant.

What exactly do you do in the game? Is it the game where you avoid police cars on a bicycle? So what? Isn't that the truth? They sneak over the border and avoid border patrols.


EDIT: Has everyone seen "Mind of Mencia" on Comedy Central?

what retail game allows you to shoot pregnant women/hear racial slurs?
 
no ...I've played every single gta game ..you call each other names (same race ..san andreas) but as I far as I know you dont call other ethnic groups racial slurs ...and there's certainly no pregnant women in gta
 
Wasnt there pregnant women, Grannies etc in Carmageddon?
It wasnt based on racial stuff though, just drive over random people :p .
 
To be fair, Vince, Generals is equally offensive to every single nation that it features. :p
 
hehe, thats true :p

"China will grow larger"
"Defending Freedom!" :p

Its a funny game, one of my favourites.
Although tbh, GLA comes off the worst, check the Single player and you'll see America and China rescueing Europe while GLA is plundering UN supplies and shooting up civilians->kind of like Al Qaida in grande scale.

But yes, it redicules all sides in general :p
 
What in the hell? Flash games? They do know that literally anyone can make a flash movie / game?

Might as well just target every jpeg, GIF, and hell why not every post of every forum ever in existance?

Exactly what I was trying to say, but I used bumper-stickers and music as an example.
