How about abortion? Pro-life and pro-choice...
I don't know, how about debating if GTA is good or bad for children or if rap is good or bad, etc.

geekerati is an unknown quantity at this point
So who is the Masterdebater?! I haven't ever played GTA yet, But I've seen and heard a lot about it. It's very explicit for a video game. I think most wackos are predisposed timebombs and games like that one just give them a plan or structure to carry out their sick fantasies. I think at the very least those type of games desensitize you over a period of time, twisting and warping peoples perception of reality as we all know it. Well. I guess I've already started it, so come with it now. moo00aahahaahaaha!

Ok, I can debate about GTA!

It has M for Mature written on the front. That means it is going to be quite a violent game. So when those mums start to complain that little Jimmy is being affected by PS2 graphics, they should remember that it was (usually) there choice to let him have the game, and they should of read the warning.

I will say more a bit later, but now I have to go.

i am not godd with gta, but i am a cool debater, i can quickly adopt to the debate, now, i think i will go for the argument that all films, everything should be under PG, if the parent thinks the chi9ld is old enough for it, then they should be able to, as if there a bad parent, there gonna screw the kid up anyway, as most bad people, to find out why they done something wrong, just go to there childhood, there parents were dtruggies, alcaholics etc, so i say leave it in the hands of parents to decide

If it has an 'M' rating, then only mature people should be able to play it. There are many instances where I've seen a 13 year old more mature than one who was 18. Not only that, from what I've seen in the real world, parents usually don't have a say in what their kid is buying (either by not being there with them, or not caring). I tell you now, someone who is mature will not turn into a psycho killer over a video game. Anyone who does, is more or less immature for their own reasons.

Now...I use to have a website on geocities called 'Mass Debation'. This would have fit perfectly there.

I think morons should spent less time blaming a video game, and more time looking at what the real problem is - Bad parenting? Evil child? Raised in bad enviroment?

I do believe there should be age restrictions on BUYING videogames. Then If a kid is playing violent videogames, (depending on their age) its a good chance their parents are neglegent, or the kid was otherwise raised in a bad enviroment.
