Yawn......go find another argument. Your preaching is beneath you.
Oh, and to top it off. There's not really a way you can compare IDing for alcohol and video games. One definately causes fatalities through drunken driving and domestic abuse. The other might (as in can't be proven) cause fatalities. Both are bad in the hands of retards but I'd much rather have an incident with a guy that's been playing GTA all day than a guy that's been drinking all day. See the difference?
LOL...do you know how to read? I hope I don't find you in any operating room I ever stumble into. I said you should be more concerned about the rules and laws that are set up to protect children...like how they aren't suppose to sell mature content to kids. I really don't know where you got the impression that I said anything about you breaking the law...nor do I understand how that would make me look "hard." I guess, that is the kind of thing you would do to look "hard."EDIT -- What law did I break concerning my daughter?? Are you just pulling more stuff out of your ass to make you look hard? EDIT
Um...wow...are you insane? Or just hoping to look hard?I'm not worried about protecting my daughter unless you're threatening. I've never hid the fact that I have a daughter. And I don't think you seriously want to go down that road.
I really see little "preaching" in this thread. I do see people concerned about the future of video games. The more stores allow young kids to buy mature content, the more ammunition they give to the anti-game movement. If you want "violent" video games to end up like pornography, just keep ignoring the issue.Did it make me feel good to list a few things I've done? Not really. I'm just tired of you guys trying to preach down on the rest of us. I'm just saying you're no better than us.
Neither do I. That would be our perspective as parents. The topic isn't about whether or not children of whatever age should play a certain game. It's about the fact that there are regulations set up, ones that do not allow stores to sell mature games to children.I just don't see the problem with a 16 year old kid playing GTA.
And where did we say that? Go, look, and come back...we'll wait...You guys are afraid of the government taking away M-rated games.
You're making a gross miscalculation if you think only the "good ole' boys" are the ones who go after this kind of content. If you bothered to remember your history, Tipper Gore was one of the leading figures in the fight against explicit lyrics. Today, off the top of my head, Senators Clinton, Schumer, and Lieberman are just some of the national, liberal figures who consistently attack the gaming industry over mature content.If Trent Lott and the good ole' boys couldn't get the First Amendment then, what makes you think that this is different?
Terrible, terrible, terrible stance to take. You never assume anything will work out the way it did before. That's a founding principle of any thinker. Past outcomes do not necessarily guarantee future ones. Sitting on your ass and letting things play out is a good way to see things change against your favor.The government will screw around for about a decade and then move onto the next "devil to the children". It happens with every form of popular entertainment. Why is this any different?
