Teachers trying to bully retailers into not carrying Bully

“We’re asking retailers to be responsible. Yes, they can sell it and compose a buck out of that, but is that the kind of marketing that they want to be [doing], selling games that glorify violence? What it does is it encourages kids to target other kids, to be a bully with other kids. that doesn’t help us as teachers in the work that we’re doing at school. It plus targets teachers at the school as well.” - Emily Noble, president of the Canadian Teachers’ Federation

Really now, I am getting sick and tired

of that. I can’t stand listening to citizens argue about something they know nothing about. I very sincerely doubt that she took the instance to play the game. Hell, I don’t even know whether she knows that the game has already been released for other platforms! I am not a big fan of Bully in the sense that I didn’t really enjoy it, but that sort of nonsense surrounding the title is something I believe is worth getting angry about.
