This is just like the age old, automatic vs manual transmission debate, except, the implications of an auto aiming rifle that can reach out and touch you 1000 yards tend to be a bit more complex.
2 hours after I bought Grand Theft Auto 5 I was online looking for cheats and codes (I can hear the hardcore gamers now). I don’t consider myself a hardcore gamer, but I do game on occasion. Sometimes I use cheat codes just to try some sh*t. Personally, I am not foaming at the mouth to use this thing. I do cheat sometimes when gaming, but taking the skill factor out of shooting or hunting isn’t as fun to me.
When it comes to the moral implications, well, I haven’t yet decided. I am not a hardcore hunter, but I do hunt on occasion (Twice). Actually, i’ll be on a three day hog hunt starting tonight. Could a novice set up on a roof and start picking people off from 1000 yards, Sure. However, is it really any different from a novice loading up a Glock and killing a bunch of people in a classroom?
What do you guys think? Hate it or love it, the technology is pretty intriguing.
