>you get extra points for shooting him in the headthat has always been the line that made me rage, since games like GTA haven't had "points" for a long time.

>anything at all from townhallThis site is horrific. I don't think I've ever seen anything that pissed me off as much as townhall does. Complete fucking ignorance everywhere.
I'm intrigued by the posting of her email on the page.

>“Life is like a video game. Everyone has to die sometime.”WHO THE FUCK HAS EVER SAID THIS? GIVE ME A CITATION, GODDAMMIT. THERE IS NO ONE IN THE WORLD WHO HAS EVER FUCKING SAID THIS!Badly written and deserves an F in high school.
>>26453732AND IN SPACE INVADERS YOU FUCKING BLEW PEOPLE UP BY THE DOZENS. YOU WERE FUCKING HARDCORE.FUCK YEAR
Republicans shouldn't allowed to use the internet, because then we get things like this and conservapedia.
I wonder if she realizes that 39% of gamers are female.
>>26453667how is a more conservative view fucking ignorant, you have ur head so far up ur ass u are blind
>>26453862troll harder next time.
>>26453862Oh you...
>If you shoot an officer, you get extra points for shooting him in the headI lol'd until it got to this, now she's just talking out her ass.Yes, GTA games are bad, that's why they're rated M or 18+, be a better parent and have some fucking control over what they're playing, shit.
>And as a staunch conservative who believes that “the government that governs least governs best,” I’m not advocating a plethora of laws that may have a chilling effect on free speech.Except when it comes to things that free speech applies to.
She seemed biased(Murder Simulators), yet at the same time she acknowledged that the parents needed to step in, and that all kids weren't incapable of thinking properly... It's not an entirely bad article.
>>26453944>And as a staunch conservative who believes that “the government that governs least governs best,” except when it benefits me or my beliefs.
>>26453944"You have the right to free speech, but don't you dare use it."
funny that the only laws passed against videogames are by democrats, why dont you 12 year olds bitch at them
Just because some kid killed all those people and happened to put many hours into GTA doesn't mean he killed them because of that game...he's just a damn twisted boy...40% of gamers are female, and if their studies prove we are violent because of the games we play, include the women that partake in our past-time...Also, I cannot use VATS in real life or cast crazy-awesome magic spells which makes her argument invalid...SO BLEH TO YOU REBECCA HAGELIN, BLEH TO YOU!!!
>>26453732No, you killed a bunch of forgieners for coming to your planet, take that aliens, we don't need no diversity here.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
>39% of gamers are female>40% of gamers are female
>I do, however, recognize that it is sometimes necessary to provide special protections for minors from harmful materialsTHEY ALREADY DID, FUCKWIT. IT'S CALLED THE ESRB.Don't you need a fucking ID to buy M and AO games anyway?!
>>26454106that statement makes no sense in this context.
>>26454139>zues having a bad birthday.jpg:)
>>26454139IT'S GROWING BY THE MINUTE!
>Parents must wake up to the fact that our nation’s boys are being used and manipulated by an industry making billions of dollars by warping their mindsThis just in: Rockstar gets $20 for every cop a young boy kills.
DDR Dancing rampage killersAMIRITE?
It's the parent's fault for buying Mature games for their children.I mean, the rating is clearly labelled on the front and screamed in front of your face when you buy it.
YES MRS HAGELIN YOU OVERPROTECTIVE CUMBUCKET, VIOLENCE MIGHT IN FACT, BEGET MORE VIOLENCE. GAMES HAVE VIOLENCE, OH NOES, PEOPLE WHO PLAY THEM ARE FUCKED. TOO BAD THEY DIDN'T HAVE SOMEONE TO GUIDE THEM RIGHT? I KNOW, WE'LL BLAME THE GAMES. I MEAN, GAMES ARE EXCLUSIVE IN THEIR USE OF VIOLENCE RIGHT? NOT LIKE MOVIES, OR TV, OR MUSIC AT ALL?GODDAMN.
Oh wow I have no faith in humanity. LOOK AT THE ADS, LOOK AT THEM
>I believe firmly in the right to free speech, and its implications thereof, except when it applies to views contrary to my own.
Retarded bitches like this are the same people who will get on their kids mic in TF2 and scold you for saying 'Damn'.I fucking hate these people, not a single fucking clue about the subject, pretty much everything she said about GTA was straight from her ass.Violent movie? Oh no it's fine, infact, spend 30 hours a week infront of it and watch all the snuff films you like! WHAT? A VIDEO GAME THAT INVOLVES VIOLENCE? WHAT IS THIS? IS SATAN IN MY LIVING ROOM GET OUT WITH THIS GAME YOU ARE GOING TO GROW UP TO BE A SERIAL KILLER.
