- coldtea 11y agoHow about a videogame where kids compete in murdering their (in-game) parents while they are sleeping with kitchen knifes? Will you be totally OK with letting yours (and other) 6-12 year old kids play that? Would you sleep feeling totally safe at nights? We're talking about "sexist" games conditioning kids that women do this and men do that, etc. How about a game conditioning kids from a young age that executions are OK, something lots of societies frown upon?

- nvnvnv 11y agoI guess what seems strange to me is that this particular incident is drawing so much ire, when we already have hugely popular games like GTA and Call of Duty (and I'm sure many more that I'm unaware of) that feature murder as a central element of the game play. I don't contest that video games can have an effect on people and especially children, but this just seems so tame in comparison to what else is already out there.
