Your Going to Jail

I'm not even sure what to make of this, but apparently you have to offer those zombies in Halo honorable terms of surrender?  It would seem that the Internal Red Cross has decided to discuss "investigate" video games for possible violations of some such something or the other.

Here's the quote from their Daily Bulletin

"While the Movement works vigorously to promote international humanitarian law (IHL) worldwide, there is also an audience of approximately 600 million gamers who may be virtually violating IHL. Exactly how video games influence individuals is a hotly debated topic, but for the first time, Movement partners discussed our role and responsibility to take action against violations of IHL in video games. In a side event, participants were asked: “what should we do, and what is the most effective method?” While National Societies shared their experiences and opinions, there is clearly no simple answer."



This makes me want to go kill some orcs!
