that's exactly how i feel. It just seems a lot of parents/relatives just don't want to take responsibility for their children. it's nuts, and a little annoying that they are trying to make their children everyone elses responsibilty.

Yeah. Not to to restate what may have already been stated, but I've always felt that it's the parents fault. Period. For example, here's one of my stories: I grew up on Duke Nukem. Duke Nukem is a shoot-them-up, blow-it-up, go-see-the-strippers, violent game. Now, my parents have always said that all of this is fake, and violence is bad, but most kid's parents don't. It's the fact that most parents don't even care anymore. My parents would turn on the adult lock on Duke Nukem, which means that the strippers and other sexual things in the game would be invisible. Since parents don't punish there kids anymore for there wrong doings, kids have less respect for them. I'm not saying that parents should go beat their kids with hammers, I'm saying that a spank on the rear end only hurts for a second, lol. But now it's to the point that practically every punishment is illegal by the DSS regulations, so again, kids have less respect.

In conclusion, I'm not a muderer, or a thief, or a wife beater, or anything. I'm your average person living an average life without any violent behavior towards anybody. I'm completely against the violent games ban. It just seems that you can get the same content from movies, and a combination of music and books.

(My friend loved 50 cent, so I listened to one of his songs, and a guy walked up to a girl in the song, started shooting that innocent all while she was screaming, and left. Tell me that doesn't influence the general rap listener.)

to me, if watching/playing a violent video game is going to cause someone to go and kill/hurt another, they must have already been fucked in the head.

but heres what i want to know, how are these kids getting these violent games, where are the parents? when the parent discovers their child is playing a game that isn't for their age why are they simply not taking them away and complaining to whichever shop sold them the game. or in most cases stop fucking buying these games for your kids if they aren't old enough to play them.

don't get me wrong i agree with the people here who say kids can tell that it is just a game and won't go out and act like a dumb shit, hell i used to play/watch voilent games when i was underage. and i am not a violent person.

but these days theres just too many idiots trying to get games i like banned because they bought/found their kid playing this game and didn't like it.

bit like the gran in america who bought her underage son one of the gta games and then tried to sue rockstar!!

Ya! thats what I'm talking about! man :D People just don't take responsibilty anymore its just silly when they try to sue the company who made the game when it was rated Tv-Ma. (Adult)
