New Video Game: Shoot Gays Before They Rape You
Wow. Just wow.

Stéphane Aguie has created a game called "Watch out behind you, Hunter." As the name might imply, the object is to shoot gay men who pop out of the bushes before they "rape" the player.

Sounds like a barrel of laughs, right?

The game is hosted on Georgian website called Uzinagaz and has European LGBT rights groups, including Gay Armenia, raging. The game has been even been banned in France, but not in Georgia or in the United Kingdom. The game has, of course, spread online to American gamer sites. A quick google search turns up the game on numerous flash gamer sites.

The owner of the site doesn't see the big deal about the game, calling it just a "bit of fun":

I really didn't understand why the association was attacking us. The guy who came up with the game, Stéphane Aguie, wanted to mock hunters and rednecks, not gay men.

Get it? It makes fun of the people shooting gays- not the gays themselves! What a knee slapper!

8. Nasty stuff.
A couple of months ago there were some articles about a rape game, where the object was to rape a woman and her teenage daughter, also something about getting them pregnant and killing them.

I know we can't stop this garbage from being sold, but I truly never want to meet anyone who find rape and murder amusing.

12. Well that's not doing any good. We don't "sneak up" behind guys anymore.
We wait til they're asleep. Don't these nerdy gamers know this? Athletes have coaches to explain it to them. I guess nobody ever bothered to tell the dweebs. This first person shooter training while awake stuff is useless. That's been an obsolete strategy since before video games were even invented. "Sneaking up on guys" went out with tailfins on cars (related developments-kind of a funny story.) The only way you can really avoid being assraped by gay men nowadays is to never go to sleep. Never, never go to sleep. Close your eyes and the Sandman will have your knees up in the air before you can say "Bi-curiosity". That's right gamers: if you've been sleeping, you've had a man inside you. Deep, deep inside you. So get yourself a big stash of diet pills, a thermos of coffee, and maybe stab yourself in the arm with a knife or a jagged piece of glass whenever your eyelids start feeling heavy. All real straight men have stayed completely sleepless since puberty. Else we would have turned 'em.

Well, see you guys in the morning, if not sooner.

15. I think this is an old game.
Nevertheless, it's still stupid.
