Gunplay
Of course this sort of thing happens when we play "Monopoly" or "Risk" all the time - so why call it Gunplay in the caption?
From the New York Times ...
At least the article was a little more honest
Two unarmed auxiliary police officers were fatally shot last night during a chase with a gunman on a busy stretch of bars and restaurants in the heart of Greenwich Village, the authorities said.The shooting occurred in a busy part of Greenwich Village.
The gunman was shot and killed about 9:30 p.m. by regular police officers who quickly responded to the scene, the authorities said.
Lazy sub-editor with captioning dyslexia - or just an indication of how untrustworthy mainstream media has become in its reporting??
Like if we all play with guns nobody gets hurt - right?
UPDATE:
The NY Times have changed their caption - but still mention the word Gunplay
At least they mention that people died while somebody was playing with their guns, and not just killed in some kind of gameplaying accident caused by guns
If anyone can tell me of someone who died playing Risk - I'd love to hear about it ...
maybe the counters fell on their head ....
