| Subject: | Guess it depends on each person |  |
| Date: | Apr 28, 2006 |

A lot of that stuff would make a boring model/diorama to me, so I wouldn't do it irregardless of whether it might be offensive or not.
I get people in my hobby shop that find military models of ANY kind somehow offensive (usually on a religious basis) So it wouldnt really matter if it had "degrees" of offensiveness. If it has a gun and kills people its baaaaad.
I really want a figure set of the South Vietnamese police chief shooting the VC suspect in the head with a pistol. I am surprised no one has actually done it. Think it would be a powerful thing in a small vignette or mini dio. I build largely for myself, so I don't care what other people think.
Funny thing is with fantasy figures (and video games), pop music, etc. there is so much violence, "heresy", sexism, etc. and no one largely complains about it except people like Tipper Gore. |
