All they would do is claim that the AO rated games were being marketed to children still. Nothing will change, they'd still assault the gaming industry and still blame them for all the problems in the world, and still be outraged that these games are being created and "marketed" to their children. Nothing would change, and then after AO is used, they'll call for either a tougher rating for things that offend them even more or an out right ban of it all together. This is how it always works with them. These people are completely fucking braindead and it just pisses me off to no end.
It's like wrestling, their kid sees a wrestling move and tries it out on his friend killing him/her or paralyzing them. Do they blame the dumb ass kid? No! Their own lack of supervising? No! They blame wrestling, the wrestlers, etc. If you kid is so fucking stupid that they have to do things they know that could or would hurt someone else, well, then your kid shouldn't even be allowed to do anything other than sit in a big white room eating crayons and riding the short bus back home at the end of the day.

Posted 07/04/08 at 12:04am Frank: I figured out something more "horrible" then the tortue game two. First read about Jack Thompson then watch Fox news.
