And you just lost. You don't win an agument by demoninzing the other side by suggesting they don't value children's lives. That just shows you have no argument and you know it. And the no stone unturned part just shows me you would support censorship if the government told you that that was 100% necessary. As for your response to me, everything you suggested, the private market has already put measures into place. They created the ESRB to rate games. The ratings are clearly visible on the cases, and in black and white so they don't blend into the cover. Every store I have been to that sells games has large signs near the games that show all the different ratings, as well as what they mean. And most stores, like Walmart and Gamestop, won't sell minors M games unless the parent is there to give their say so. So, we have some parents that feel their children are capable of handling those games and some parents who just don't care. I highly doubt we need the government to step in and waste more time and money, when in the end, it will change nothing. Which again, only leaves forced censorship. We don't need to go down that ugly route. |
Different between me and you guys are that I believe there might be a small chance that these games effected these kids, you guys are just dimissing it. I'm open there might be a possibilities until reseaches and studies comes out to dismiss it. I'm not a politician, PHD or a Scientist to make that call. But I'm a father and to me being a father is more important then puting a label on the Video Games industry.
