Last Saturday night in Scotland, Madonna rocked out to a concert in Edinburgh, Scotland. Not any old concert mind you; cops requested that she tone down the show out of respect for victims of Scotland's school shooting in 1996 and the recent Aurora, Colo. tragedy but she continued to include fake machine guns and pistols on stage.

So, the MDNA concert went on as planned, fake firefarms and all. The Material Girl also included the same choreography in other locations where it could be deemed in poor taste such as Tel Aviv, Israel.
