    Am I the only one that doesn't care about these "Violent Video Game Ban Laws"?

    Kids can't buy Pr0n either, but it definately hasn't put a damper on the profits that industry has pulled in from the people who can legally buy it.

    It just means that if the dork at Gamestop sells a 8 year old kid "Playboy Mansion" or "Manhunt" he gets fined. Good.
