I have met children in this game as young as 6 years old. SIX. Would you be willing to give your six-year-old child your bills and ask them to pay your taxes? Would you be willing to give them a pocket full of cash and tell them to spend it on veggies, and then walk away? Would you give your six year old a bottle of poison?
What I'm getting as, there are children out there that have NEVER been taught right from wrong, are allowed to do whatever they want, and get away without knowing consequences might exist (Supernanny scenarios don't exist just on TV.) If we let kids shoot people in game, and in turn, they are REWARDED, then what would happen?
"Hey, daddy has one of those thingys! I can go use that like the pirates!"
Not every family is a perfect little clan, where everybody is responsible and cares for each other. So, we can't treat it as such.

Why should Disney care about 6 year olds playing this game? It's rated E-10 which means if a 6 year old sees a pirate shooting a Navy soldier and their mom or dad doesn't like it and tries to sue they'd automatically lose just because of the rating saying all content is directed to people ages 10+. Most if not all 10 year olds know what happens when you shoot someone and a large amount of them have shot an animal such as a deer, duck, squirrel, etc. That being said Disney is not responsible for a 9 year old or younger seeing something bad on this game. They are only responsible for the age group of 10+.
