I have a lot of respect for many gamers - many are on my staff and in my family - but the industry has profited at the expense of children.

    @LelandYee That would imply that children are buying games without parental permission, which you still haven't proven @akeigwin

    @LelandYee That's fair, but as a parent I don't need state government dictating or even voicing an opinion on the media my kids consume.

    .@LelandYee No, it profits from parents who don't regulate their kids entertainment. Blame the parents providing M-rates games to children.

    You clearly know nothing about the gaming industry @LelandYee if you believe that the only consumers are children.

    @LelandYee There are allowances for parents to purchase games for their kids. Don't punish those of us who are old enough to know better.

    @LelandYee At the expense of children? Really? That might be something to do with poor parenting and bad store policies, not the industry.
