More Bad Publicity For GTA


Three teens have been arrested and blamed for a series of car bombings in Atlanta, US of A, the land of dreams.

The teens have been charged with 57 felony counts (that’s serious crimes to us non-Americans) as a result of car bombs in the last month.  The felony charges include arson, criminal damage to property and possession of explosive devices.

The teens are said to have confessed that they learned “how to do it” from the widely popular GTA before carrying the attacks, half of which were parked outside of their owners’ houses.

This after the murder of a taxi driver in Thailand last week, whose attacker confessed that he wanted to see “if it was as easy in real life” to rob a taxi driver and his car as it was in the game.

This is what happens when you let terrorism into your home.  Or maybe their dreams have been realised.

We’re not making light of the murder, but someone should have given these guys a hug before they turned to a life of crime.
