I forgot which idiot in Boston freaked out the most about the aqua teen “bombing” thing but I never will forget the quote I saw from him during this “They had wires and batteries , they where very sinister” OMG if something has wires and batteries it must be evil! So watch out the next time you play your I-pod, get on your cell phone because those machines are the magic of the devil and will condemn your should to hell!!……

When/if the time comes and we finally invent warp drive or whatever, imho people like these people shouldn’t be allowed to leave the planet.

I am sorry but if your a parent and you can’t understand that M means Mature and that you don’t know whether your 3 year old is mature enough, then you shouldn’t be allowed to have kids..

I am 16 now so in another year I wont care. But I agree with Rollett it should be up to the parents not the government to decide on what there kids should play. Same with movies, music, and them old comic books. I will not play a game like manhunt 1 or 2 I just don’t like that type of game. mindless killing is just not fun.

I think its the parents choice to deside whats Suitable for their children… Not Your’s Erathoniel or anyone elses… Problem is.. most parents just turn their back side or don’t care….

The Goverment and the people who have power keep attacking the wrong group.. its not the TV’s or the Games.. or the music.. its the God danm Mom’s and Dad’s!

There’s a limit. For instance, a five year old should not play an M game or see an R movie. However, I recommend the age of 13 as the minimum age, with parent approval for content. I feel that this is best because it means that there will be less of a chance of children turning out bad from violent video games. I play video games all the time, don’t get me wrong, but some M games have content an R movie would view as taboo or over-the-edge, and I feel that the added interactivity (Wii Manhunt 2) may make a game unsuitable for children.
