Violent Games Good for Kids

fjordboy writes "Scholars from MIT, the University of California in LA, and the University of London have worked together to oppose laws restricting children from playing violent video games. The battle is currently taking place in the US Court of Appeals and the case seems to hold a decent amount of merit. From Vnunet:"Experts on childhood and adolescence have long recognised the importance of violent fantasy play in overcoming anxieties, processing anger, and providing outlets for aggression." Similar article from Reuters as well."

    It is a play on words my sophomoric friend. "Communisty," a communist community. The populist mobocracy that legislates mediocrity through the terrorism and suppression of avant-garde thinking. It can be concise, refreshing, original acerbic and witty, but the fucking mediocritomatons, another play on words [mediocre automatons], such as Tevis Money and scum bag morons such as yourself, have such limited capacity that they cannot stand to allow brilliance to mushroom out of their swamp of decadent thinking.

    So think before you speak, you god damn bastard. Think.
