Video Game Violence. Ha Ha Ha.

Let me just grab that car you're driving officer, and while we're at it, let me bludgeon you with my brass knuckles and take your weapon. A baton? Damn! I was sure you'd have a gun.

Violence has always been a topic of debate in the United States (most rightfully), but people tend to skip over Gaming as a form of entertainment. It's acceptable, though slightly inappropriate, to watch a woman getting raped for 7 minutes in a film considered to be a classic, but it's wrong to watch your character in GTA get the royal 10 dollar treatment in the front seat of the car he just stole at gunpoint. I've visited an unhealthy amount of hookers in GTA, not because it was entertaining, nor because it was fun, but to prove to myself that it's harmless. I've killed in the hundreds of thousands. I've slaughtered innocent pedestrians for no reason other than my mayhem fueled attention span. I've committed unforgivable crimes, evil, disturbing crimes. Yet, I'm not in a prison cell with a man staring at me like it was our honeymoon. I sit here in my office, a belt full of murderous notches, smiling. I can't speak for the world, hell, sometimes I struggle to speak for myself, but I don't see the harm in violent video games.

ESRB ratings should be enough to alert parents of whether or not a game is appropriate for their child. I see violence in video games no different than in a movie, and as long as your child understands that movies are a work of fiction, why shouldn't he receive the same message from a video game? We give teenagers the credibility of a 4 year old bipolar chimp. If someone brings daddy's gun to school and murders his classmates with no particular motive, other than playing a violent video game prior to the event, the crazy sonamabitch was going to tilt over the edge eventually with or without the help of a game. Parents need to come to terms with the fact that the video game industry is developing, and with advancment comes a whole new array of methods in which to kill a hooker for the sole purpose of getting your hard earned money back.

Give me my 10 dollars you wretched wench, I am unsatisfied with your below average services!
