The most puzzling aspect of this is how most of the people who are against video games haven't even played them. I highly doubt, or example, that Jack Thompson went out and picked up a copy of Manhunt 2. I thought we were taught to not "judge a book by its
cover. Maybe if some of those people tried M-rated games, they might feel that they aren't as influential as they thought. That may
not be the case, but they won't know if they don't try them out. The lack of willingness makes their fight against video games much
less credible, yet more and more people join in their attempt to clean up the video game industry.
