Well on that token, if we're getting rid of things that are detrimental and
bad, we're abolishing the right to bear arms and making guns illegal. I'm
sure hunters can get back into the spirit of hunting and pick up a bow and
arrow and since I've yet to see any solid evidence that owning a gun
increases lifespan or cleans up neighborhoods, but I have seen evidence that
many innocent children and adults are killed without need, then guns must
go.
Which is fine with me. Although I could take the extreme hard line attitude
many NRA'ers take
You can take this game when you pry it from my cold dead hands... Isn't that
how it goes LOL
Eventually we'll all need small scale tactical nukes to protect ourselves
from the deer and the criminals... I'm waiting for that day.

Sure if you call self serving working to create a safer and kinder society -
guilty as charged. Society exists for the good of the whole society, not to
pander to the few vocal ones who bitch about their personal freedoms no
matter how detrimental to the society as a whole they may be. I have no
interest in doing anything to stop the game makers. Again, masking the
symptoms won't do a damn thing. Again, cut the politically correct bull
shit. If something is detrimental and bad, get rid of it. Its simple. Most
of these games serve no real purpose beyond mindless entertainment. If you
like the games, fine enjoy. But again be willing to live with the
consequences of the very ideals you are defending. I think there are some
wonderful games out there and I enjoy playing some of them from time to
time. I don't live my life for them nor would I fall into a deep depression
if they were suddenly unavailable. I would rather spend my time mentoring a
child who needs an adult in their life or working with various community
organizations to help make the area in which I live a friendlier and safer
place for all.

| Why are people defending these hideous games? Its not the games that
matter.
Because some people happen to like these games. Because some people are
getting tired of having everything in the world taken away or censored by
self-serving special intrest groups who feel compelled to force their morals
on the rest of the world.
| Cut the politically correct bull shit and start believing in , standing up
for and
| practicing what is right.
This is why people are defending those games ;)
