Sadly, these types of reports aren't sensational enough for larger avenues of disbursement.

We're still heading towards some unfriendly video game legislation imo.

That's what I'm sensing also. The VG industry is too ideal a scapegoat for the Mothers Against Whateverthefuck.

Anything that gives them a scapegoat aside from poor parenting or their child being either unstable/bad will be under constant pressure from soccer moms nationwide.

What, are you asking parents to be parents? What the fuck are you thinking? They shouldn't have to do that.

Part of it is America's "someone else's fault" syndrome as well.

I would have to agree with this statement.

I'd agree too, but I'm just so damned apathetic...
