With that I agree 100%. But unfortuanately, we both know that that sort of control is not an option here. But I agree, that would be considered a suitable option. But what about people, such as kids, that really shouldn't be exposed to that sort of violence? Once they are not so influencial it is a different story. But how would you protect young eyes and ears?

So arpathied was the product of PC games.............or was it the ANC philosophy of one man one vote.

LETS BAN SNAKES AND LADDERS.................SOME KID MIGHT BE INFLUENCED AND CLIMB UP A LADDER AND INJURE THEMSELVES................ LETS BAN PIN THE TAIL ON THE PONY. iT MIGHT ENCOURGAE ANIMAL CRUELTY........................ LETS BAN SPIN THE BOTTLE. PROMISCUITY WILL DISSAPEAR...................... LETS BAN MOTORCYCLE RACING AND WE WON'T SPEED............you can justify banning all things.................but in doing so you only produce a tyrinacal society.

No, quite clearly apartheid was not a product of PC Games. And the ANC comment has a lot more depth to it than that. yes the national party have SHITLOADS to answer for, treating another race like that is abhorrent. But on the other hand, the dynamics of S.A. go well and beyond apartheid, in fact the roles have reveresed now days.

So why the the orignal SA comment on a thread on PC games??

PS Did not mean to shout. My rep here is sarcasm (I call it wit) not not noise. Was playing around with font size and clicked the wrong button.

The S.A. comment comes only from watching the level of violence rise here. And some similar social issues that drove South Africa. In any case, you guys have made some good points, i feel i have made some good points, now i am tired of debating...I don't care quite this much about it! Having your view is entirely your right.

Is this one of your good points??
