Ok, maybe I should have spent more than 5 seconds on that last post. What I meant was that our society has a track record of blaming media sources for our failures as a society and as parents. Look at the previous targets:
Rap music (NWA, IceT, 2 Live Crew, etc.)
Metal music (Slayer, Metallica, Ozzy)
Rock music
Comic books
TV
R rated movies
I'm sure there are many other generes that have been vastly blamed at one time or another, that's all I care to list right now. For the most part, people (with the exception of the etremists, of course) have stopped blaming those old targets. Currently, video games are the fun target. Eventually people will move past video games and find a new target.
The problem is that in the meantime, we have people like Jack Thompson out there spreading lies and misinformation.
