"In his defense, perhaps Yee meant metaphorically that we shouldn't teach kids that violence solves all of life's problems. If that's so, then we shouldn't have elected the Terminator to the state's highest office. Glorification of violence happens on all levels in our culture."
America is a violent society. All of our major historic events have precipitated from war or violence. I wish Americans would stop trying to fix our "barbaric ways" and just accept and embrace what we are. America loves to see things go boom! Otherwise Sylvester Stallone would have needed another profession. Parents need to learn to parent again, not trust the video game store clerk making minimum wage to enforce a law that he/she doesn't give a rat's ass about. This law should be: "Parents are to be held accountable if your child ends up being a screwed up, anti-social, animal violating, mass murdering little monkey. We will not hold a faceless game store clerk accountable for your neglect."
Agreed. CNN is always 2 steps behind and corporately skewed on all news tech related. Keep in mind, CNN and AOL are both owned by Time Warner. We all know that AOL only speaks gospel.

Does eMpTyV even play music at all anymore? I was under the impression that it was left to VH-1 now.
