Old rant: video games.

[Harie Krauzer]

But children's cartoons are no less violent. Take a look at good ol' Looney Tunes. How often does Elmer Fudd ending shooting himself?

You do have a point, but do note you said "ol'" as in old. I would dare to say that times are a bit different. This here will hit on some censorship issues as well. Kids shows these days. How many of them do actuall show guns being directly pointed at people? Then again there is a fallicy there as well. What kind of cartoons do Americans actually drawfor kids these days? True the anime do have them, but the few I've seen seem to have been either cut or edited to remove such violence.

Let's not forget that there are those who are completly opposed to ALL what has been mentioned. The over dominating parents. So nearly all of what has been mentioned is wrong and didn't carry any good value to begin with anyways. My Dad will say nearly all of what is on television is crap. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't say the TV is crap, it's just the people. There are some shows that he has enjoyed thoroughly... though they were few and far between.
