Well, maybe parents shouldn't bitch about the stuff their kids are seeing. No politician pulls an issue out of their ass, they hear from voters.
All this shit is due to whiny soccer moms who can't tell their kid not to get GTA, so they want the government to make it illegal for them to buy it.






This has been going on since the dawn of mass entertainment. People feel they're losing control of their kids and seek someway to prevent the corrupting influences of mass culture.

Video games are the latest threat to America's youth. It wasn't that long ago that they wanted ban comic books! This fear has given us the Hayes Code, MPAA ratings, V-chips, warning labels on music and on and on. Has any of these attempts been succesful?

Kids rebel against their parents. They declare their independence by doing thing their elders don't like (Rock & Roll).


Tony Soprano to Carmella, "If these kids ever find out how powerless we are, we're fucked!".



You make a good point. Remember the Beatles were once seen as a threat to children.


Bow ties are coool.
