Where Politics And Video Games Collide

Like everyone else it makes me wonder whats so hard about seeing a M on the box and reading what the game is about on the back of the box. But why would I even need the rating all I need to do is look at the cover of the box. If I see care bears hugging each other then it seems pretty safe for a kid. But if I see a pictures of people with guns and zombies biting someones arm on the cover then it kinda seems sensible to me that its not kid friendly. Yeah the retailers have some really lazy checkout employees. But mostly its the really lazy ass parents.

Also when ever I go to a store with games like best buy there is a sign that explains what the ratings mean. Usually its pretty big. Explaining to us what E, T, and M mean.

It seems like enforcing the safety of children is a new thing these days.
I can just see the day now. Police busting into your house with a warrent to arrest you because you are letting your kid play grand theft auto. And taking your kid away from you because other people know whats best for your child. Not their child your child. And once that child is safe from the evils of video games. They forget about them and move on to the next. The child taken away from there good parents grow up with out loving parents cause he is that problem child that played grand theft auto. He is a murderer in training. We don't want a child trained to kill by a video game.

On a serious note it just seems like there are alot of other things out there these people can be doing to help children. Yet they are wasting money on things like this.
