From what I've seen, it's gone like this.
ZOMG! Radio Plays will ruin our children! They'll try to act out what they hear! BAN IT! Think of the children!
and that didn't work. So
ZOMG! Comic Books will ruin our children! They'll try to act out what they read! BAN IT! Please think of the children!
THAT didn't work. So
ZOMG! MOVIES will ruin our children! They'll try to act out what they watch! BAN IT! Will you PLEASE think of the children!?
Again, it didn't work. So
ZOMG! Dungens & Dragons will ruin our children! They'll try to act out what the RP! BAN IT! Will you *PLEASE* think of the children already?!
Again, same reaction. (You seeing a pattern here?) So
ZOMG! Rock and Roll will ruin our children! They'll act out what they're hearing! THINK OF THE CHILDREN ALREADY!
Once again,
Head On: applied directly to your forehead. So
ZOMG! Video Games will ruin our children! They'll act out what they do in the games! BAN IT! Why won't you think of the children?!
It ain't working, and I'm quite sure it won't work in the end. We still have comic books, rock and roll, radio plays (though those aren't as big as they used to), movies and all that.
Granted, when the government actually
does get involved and tries to ban games, we all jump on their backs and make them remember that
They work for
Us and we can make sure
They no longer do and we find someone
Else to work for
Us.
