It's a game, get over it. You're not really shooting anybody, no one's blood is really getting spilled. I'm also tired of this "It'd be just as effective if you played as one of the civilians and ran away from the 'terrorist'." Bullshit, no it wouldn't.
Two reasons:
1. The whole point is that you're under cover and you have to kill innocent people. It's like watching a movie about a NARC from the perspective of one of the druggies. It's not the same.
2. Infinity Wars wants the controversy. It's not like they all of a sudden stepped into a minefield and shit started blowing up, IW is setting off fireworks. While we're at it, I wouldn't be surprised if Capcom went the same route thanks to the "OMG! RE5 IS RACIST!" scandal.
