I'm going to say this yet again because nobody ever seems to understand: PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!

What is it, you illiterate morons ask? Simple. It's the idea that your actions are your own. You, and you alone, are responsible for your actions. It is not the job of the government or any other group/organization to censor things simply because people are corruptible. It's not the responsibility of the companies, either.

The companies only have to produce a product/service that people will purchase. After that, they really have no responsibility, as long as it doesn't physically harm someone (i.e. food poisoning from KFC or whatever). You may say that this gives the people incentive to do it, but who ultimately commits the violent act? Certainly not the companies.

This is just like gun control. Sure, the companies may be supplying these wackjobs, but the companies' intent are not to arm these people, but to sell their product. It's not their fault that people are corruptible.

If an underage kid gets a hold of the game, that's the fault of the parent for not doing anything about it. My mom found out that I bought Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and she took it away, and returned it to Best Buy and kept the money. She didn't blame the game companies. She blamed Best Buy for selling a Mature game to a minor, but she wasn't out to eradicate violent games because of it.

I believe in the responsibility of the people. You can do whatever as long as you deal with the consequences of your actions, and as long as it doesn't interfere with others' rights.

whoa.
