TV Says Gamers Are Crazy Killers
To those of us who do live in the real world, as opposed to video game land or the tortured plot devisings of bad TV writers, it might seem unrealistic that a gaming company wouldn't cooperate with the police in such a circumstance. Kinda suspicious. Hey, you don't suppose the gaming company might be involved, do you? It turns out that executive isn't just smarmy -- he's Satan. Not only is the company providing bad role models to the youth of today, but, in an effort to boost sales in a competitive industry, it's also actively supplying college students with Tec-9 automatics and encouraging them to murder innocent people.
The situations described are clearly ludicrous, but it's not difficult to surmise that there are plenty of people out there whose opinions were merely reinforced by way of CSI: Miami. After all, Jack Thompson (coincidentally from Miami) has built quite a name for himself and gathered quite a following, as crazy as it might seem, by making similar accusations as the ones in this episode--except in real life.
Of course, one response in the article's comments section points out, rather plausibly, "Maybe TV execs are just jealous that they are losing out the 18-24 male demographic to Playstation 2."

Yep. It's just another desperate attempt by ol' Big Brother to regulate something it can't get its hands on.
They have the FCC for TV, but they don't control the video games Industry, so Mrs. Clinton and her cronies now have their sights set.
I love regulation. -
