GTA IV turns you into a pedophile photo

Another day, another British tabloid finding something in a videogame that has outraged the "great" UK public. This one is an absolute classic, too. In GTA IV, there is a spoof Web site called littlelacysurprisepageant.com, which can be accessed on Liberty City's Internet service. The site is "closed down" by the LCPD, and if you access it, you instantly achieve a five-star wanted level. The Sun has, naturally, found some people that are hilariously over-reacting.

"I was looking on the Internet for cheats and the name of this caught my eye as my daughter is called Lacey," bellowed Jason Deschoolmeester, while steam possibly shot out from his ears. "This crosses the line. The makers have obviously sat around and discussed putting this in, and it’s not on. What will they do next?"

"It’s disgusting. It could lead people to indulge in things like that. It is totally sick. I won’t play it again."

Please read the bolded part. A spoof Web site that contains no pornographic content (the in-game police shut it down) and instantly lands you in trouble could actually TURN YOU INTO A PEDOPHILE, according to this man! I had no idea that parodies could pervert one's entire sexuality, but it looks like I can never play Grand Theft Auto again, lest children everywhere face the wrath of my almighty donking vadgehammer.

So, how many children have you all raped since playing GTA IV?  

[Thanks, Prof. Pew]

I discovered raping kids before GTA 4 so I can't say the game is responsible for my actions although I do find myself doing it more after finishing GTA 4....weird

Irritated, but not surprised. This is what we have come to expect from the Murdoch media.

Jason Deschoolmeester, you're a dick. And a pedophile probably because his last name means 'The School Teacher' in Dutch.

Do you want our children rapings for today or total? I think I'm up to 3 this morning, and it's not even lunch time yet!

Wait, wait...is this true? The guy is saying that the fake, in-game blocked site promotes pedophelia because his daughter's name is 'Lacey' and the site is littleLACYsurprisepageant.com?

WTF?

Maybe he shouldn't have named his daughter after something that could describe lingerie...because my guess is that Rockstar was thinking of that and not some little girl named Lacey...probably. 99% sure.

I've tried and tried to kick my 5 child-molestations and 2 school=yard-photo-sessions that GTA IV has put me under, but I just can't do it.

Do they make a patch for this?

Fuckin' A, man...I didn't even know that website existed...The most it'd make me do when seeing it is laugh and then curse Rockstar for giving me a wanted level.

Some people are so stupid it isn't even funny.

Who names their daughter "Lacey" anyway?

Besides, I would think that this little incident is a public service announcement, as it demonstrates exactly what will happen to you if you try that kind of thing this day and age.

who the hell's called Jason Deschoolmeester?! the very idea of someone going on about a fake website that has no content and gets you in instant trouble is stupid, but then saying it "could" turn you to paedophelia is just f***ing stupid! only one thing worse, and that's the fact he went out of his way to find said website so he could bitch about it

Why doesn't the Sun have disclaimers under the majority of their stories stating "We get away with printing this garbage because you the reader really are that stupid". Newspapers relate to us any number of screwed up things that go on in the world, by the same logic as this story. It could lead people to indulge in things like that

I don't get it- if you look at a supposed kiddie porn site in the game and here is nothing to see, but you get slaughtered by the cops promotes kiddie porn? so then I guess by that logic if you play GTA at all you should become a kinder and more calm person right? because killing people and commiting crime w/o consequences makes you not want to do it.....you can't have it both ways

Well, after playing GTAIV for the first time I did feel an incessant need to go and touch children straight away.

NO. FAIL.

When will these people (read: brain dead morons) finally get the fucking message? Bloody hell.

The best part is that there aren't actually any children in GTAIV whatsoever.

This is just like the outcry over the game's drunk driving, in that people are saying the game promotes behavior that the game itself punishes.

Seeing nothing but a page that says "The police are on their way" or whatever leads to becoming a pedophile.

OKAY?!

I heard playing Metal Gear Solid 4 can and will turn everyone who plays it into an old man with guns who is probably also a pedophile with racism appalling Britain video games journalism.

I call shenanigans! If you're a pedo after looking at it, you were a pedo before. Its not like some fake website in a game wakes up your latent desire to rape children.

So...if I play Breath of Fire does that mean that I'll go out and try to bang a lizard in hopes of making my child a real life version of Ryu? That would be cool.

I didn't even know about this site thing but since looking at it my child rapes per week has actually gone DOWN...or maybe I'm just bored because they don't have any boobies for me to play with.
