->''"Disregarding that, so many parents just buy their kids M-rated games with no second thought. They just don't look at the ratings and [[Main/{{Hypocrite}} then blame the game for being too vulgar for their kids]]. Why don't you actually be a parent and regulate what media your child consumes rather than blaming the media itself? Different people are into different things, meaning not every piece of media produced is going to be G-rated. That's true concerning everything, especially video games. Most of the video games that garner controversy for being unsuitable for children... are already rated M! But is that ''ever'' brought up when all these big shots [[CowboyBeBopAtHisComputer who know nothing about video games]] talk about how video games are corrupting society? No, they just talk about how the newest ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' is poisoning our children when guys! ''Guys!'' '''GUYS!'''''"
