emotionally mature people can tell right from wrong and will just think the game is funny ... where the emotionally undeveloped - damaged goods will think it's cool in a very unsavory way.

its a slippery slope .

But banning things is also a slippery slop. First it's this, then violence on TV, then violence in movies. Where will it end? Unfortunatly violence in some form or another is a part of life.
And should eveyone suffer because of a few bad apples?
