Facebook drops shooting game demo at conservative event

Facebook has said it regrets promoting a virtual reality shooting game on its stand at a US conservatives' event.

The game allows the player to shoot imaginary weapons against enemies in a public train station.

Facebook said it removed the display at the Conservative Political Action Conference "out of respect" for victims of a recent school shooting in Florida.

"We regret that we failed to do so in the first place," Hugo Barra, the company's head of VR, told the BBC.
