Cartoons, well media violence has been around since the beginning of media. It's nothing new that youth takes up this violent standard and makes it a mainstream fact of life. It's absurd to blame it on culture or media, video games and the internet provoacateur.

The problem is deeper and woefully obvious. As a culture we get what we want by force. We make no bones about this, in fact we embrace it as righteous cause, we teach no other lessons.

Every child you have becomes a ticking timebomb if left to the devices of our society. You wonder why I come on so strong as a protectionist? You wonder why I bash companies like WalMart? You wonder why?

In my time, a child was revered. A child was the hope of the future. A child out learned, out gained and out lived their parents.

We lost that along the way. It's easy to blame media and video games. But that's the way you you guys like it, easy, blame somebody. It isn't easy to raise a generation, if you were looking for easy, you shoulda used a condom. Children are your responsibility, take it. Do the right thing.

You sure you aren't Mindia? You've got that same misreading of everyone's viewpoints and the wild tangent he did down pat if you're not.
Inside each person lives two wolves. One is loyal, kind, respectful, humble and open to the mystery of life. The other is greedy, jealous, hateful, afraid and blind to the wonders of life. They are in battle for your spirit. The one who wins is the one you feed.

He can play some fighting games depending on how graphic they are and how he behaves while he is playing. He can play some shooters like Halo, Star Wars themed ones, games that aren't overly graphic or where he fights monsters, etc but no war games like CoD, Medal of Honor etc.


I completely agree.

Shit....Im agreeing with Tossica. Next you know Ill be agreeing on what beer is best.
