Hopefully, that'll be the only significant consequence. As we all know, games can't get away with some of the shit movies do, and there's then there's all these greaseball politicians and shitlicking journalists just dying to "do some good".
That IS all that is going to happen. What could they possibly do about it? Sure, some of the media will pick up on it and there will be lots of talk, but ultimately the game will sell a bajillion copies and nothing will happen to Infinity Ward.

The whole level will come with a warning saying it's disturbing, and you'll be able to skip it entirely if you want.

It's the opening level
Is it? The videos of it I've seen make it look like it's the last level of Act I, based on the menu.
Edit: Er, the second last mission, actually.

What I fear is growth in public support for moronic legislation initiatives (

On the one hand, I appreciate Infinity Ward's attempt to tackle a controversial and disturbing theme which would be acceptable in other narrative mediums, and on the other, I can't help but see it as an excellent means for the horseblowing Michael Atkinsons of the world to appeal to Joe Moron for his unfortunate vote.

This game just wants to be controversial every step of the way, doesn't it?
Hell at this point even mothra would just be repeating other people.
