kids can be exposed to call of duty and nobody cares but if a kid sees one boob on television then people flip out big time
nobody even flinches if a body is mutiliated and decapitated in gruesome ways but if someone says a naughty word and someone's butt is seen then complaints will be spammed online i just find it disturbing how over the top gore and violence doesn't even get a reaction out of anyone even if it's something kids would be seeing but nudity and curse words are somehow worse than seeing someone's body crushed by a tractor where is the logic? --- PSN: VV_Argost XB1:GamerClawdeen WiiU: GothicNightmare ...

Nudity and curse words are not part of everyday life. So of course they wouldn't be allowed to see them.
But grotesque violence? Shit's regular in America. Just last week I saw someone brutally impaled by a log on a highway (people seriously need to learn to stop driving behind trucks loaded with wood). And the week before that I saw a bull walking around with a child's body slung between its two horns. Parents probably thought it'd be fun to let their kid try bullfighting. Probably won't do it for the next kid though, you live and you learn. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

A lot of things seem to baffle you.
NightMareBunny posted... kids can be exposed to call of duty and nobody cares but if a kid sees one boob on television then people flip out big time Except that violent games ARE subject to the ERB which is censorship and that games themselves aren't put in public NightMareBunny posted... nobody even flinches if a body is mutiliated and decapitated in gruesome ways but if someone says a naughty word and someone's butt is seen then complaints will be spammed online Also edited for TV. Maybe you're just baffled because you don't understand how anything works. NightMareBunny posted... but nudity and curse words are somehow worse than seeing someone's body crushed by a tractor Again, you wouldn't see any gruesome element on tv except perhaps on the news which is largely immune to censorship. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...

Every place I've ever worked, people calmly use casual swearing in normal conversation.
I hear far more swearing from laid back people than I ever do from angry ones. And yeah, TC. It's weird and stupid and makes no sense. Which makes it pretty obvious what the source of those censorship attitudes is. ... Copied to Clipboard!

lol, no. People use violence as an outlet, not swearing. That's why violence is OK and swearing is not.

kids can't be exposed to call of duty Yet you'd be surprised at how many kids under 17 have played CoD and talk about it in public; same with GTA V. Some parents don't monitor what their kids play; all they care about is keeping the kid QUIET so they can rest after a hard days' work. ... Copied to Clipboard!

kids can be exposed to call of duty and nobody cares but if a kid sees one boob on television then people flip out big time Puritans. They are the moral ancestor of the country and wanted nothing to do with sexual imagery etc. (they bred like rabbits of course but that sort of hypocrisy is baked in to most of the system too) but nothing was ever specified about violence when they stuck their nose into the rule making because all of the money/land was coming out of disenfranchising indigenous people, by force if necessary-see manifest destiny, et al. Europe has a much more healthy view-sex is good, fun and the human body is nothing to be embarrassed about, violence is permissible if necessary to make a point but doesn't need to be glorified and who cares what words you say because they're just words. --- Mod me?

kids can't be exposed to call of duty I thoroughly agree, except that's not the reality and you know it. Look at Australia's rating system-they've essentially banned a lot of games with their R18+ 'not classified' crap loophole because they're worried kids will see it. they're right because a lot of parents are too stupid/lazy to watch what the kid is playing but it's not the government's place to dabble in censorship. --- Mod me?
