I hate how people are blaming video games for the violence. I found some sites on this:
1, 2, 3, and 4.

Since they seem to show violent games on FoxNews, we should make a really violent game about killing everyone at Fox News(This hasn't been done before right?). That should make it on TV. This would also be a good money making oppurtunity(sp?): if the game has a really good chance of making it on TV, how much would a sponsor pay?

Their investigations always involve spewing out some bullshit and then pulling some wrinkly old soccer mom on to pull bogus studies out of their asses and give parents things to blame for their kid's bad upbringing.

Well, that was a bunch of bullshit, wasn't it...?

The whole thing was an unbiased, one-sided, tragic rant about a kind of game people knows of ages.

"I am sick of hearing that excuse"

What the hell? How come they are complaining about a problem that has existed for gizillions of years and suddenly they blame it in the first "violent thing" they can get thier claws onto...

That was a horrible way of giving news... horrible...

Hello, Fox News.
I feel that your attack-I'm sorry, "news report," on Newgrounds.com - Particularly on "The Torture Game 2" - Was completely biased. You dismiss parenting as mere childplay, saying "Kids have access to it for free online without any block." There is a block - It's called parenting. Honestly, with millions of users, did you expect us at Newgrounds(hereby refered to as NG) to not notice? We on the forum, and, undoubtedly, elsewhere on the site are, to put it crudely, pissed. I am sick of you saying "I'm tired of the excuse 'It's just entertainment.'" There has not been a single report by a sane person that video games have caused violence. I also find it rather ironic; the fact that you have in-depth stories on rape and murder and theft, and here you are saying that false animation will cause children to be violent.
There is a 'Mature' rating on the submission, for 'Excessive Violence.' If a child does not know what that means, they have no right to be there. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about when you say NG is a horrible influence for children. Sure, blame it on the artists and the webmasters. Don't blame it at all on the poor parenting skills in America. Do you get what I'm trying to say?
Furthermore, have you thought about the artist's feelings? How do you think he felt when you verbally spit on his fine piece of art, calling it 'disgusting' and 'sick and twisted?' It took him months to make, and probably about a week for the update, plus numerous other updates he had to fix.

You make me sick, Fox. You really do.

With all due (dis)respect,

Anonymous, pissed off Newgrounds user.

Done. Here's a copy of my letter.

Fox News,

I'm going to do something that I'm sure a lot of your anonymous emails do not do. I'm going to tell you my name. I'm going to introduce myself.

My name is Chris Walker. Nice to meet you, Fox News.

Now that we're on friendly terms, I've viewed your segment (which can be found at http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=09e_12145 94171 if you're confused) on the Torture Game 2, a game featured on a website that I frequent, called Newgrounds.com. I've also played the game, as your coverage has made quite the stir on the website itself. I must say, after listening to your piece, and playing the game myself, the anchor responsible for that segment, and all those involved are biased, uneducated, liars.

Of course, now that you know I'm defending the game, you undoubtedly think I'm some kind of violent, brutish human who is incapable of logical thought and lives only to serve his unending addiction to virtual torture, and eventually branch out into the real thing. I mean, that's what you're saying isn't it? That's the only way it can be, because when listening to your segment, I noticed that nobody gave a chance to the other side of the issue, the anti-censorship portion, and when it was brought up, it was simply mocked by an overweight, forty-something conservative who can't see past the web of lies she knowingly weaves.

This, fox news, is wrong. It's wrong, and I'm sure you're well aware of exactly what you're trying to do. Fear mongering. Well frankly, I'm fed up with it. I'm tired of my voice being silenced and my views being stepped on and tossed aside because what you have to say can scare all the conservative parents into stocking up on bottled water and putting their foil helmets on. Of course, this is all coming from an unintelligent, violent, waste of a life, right fox news? So don't listen to what I, nay, what WE have to say. Our voices are unimportant anyway right?

In my defense, I've been playing video games since a very early age, and continue to do so to this day. And yes, a majority of those video games do include amounts of violence, in varying amounts of gratuity. Didn't know a sick minded, violent, bastard like myself could use the word 'gratuity', did you? These games, I can safely say, have had no adverse effects on me, and I continue to be a productive, normal member of society, with the fantastic ability to separate fact from fiction. Reality from a game. As much as you don't want to hear that excuse, it's the truth. We do possess this amazing talent.

Do with this statement what you may. Twist it around. Chop it up and make it seem as if I'm threatening and attacking you. Make us all seem like the "Next Big Threat To America". You seem to be quite good at that.

All we want is for our views to be considered. It's your call Fox News.

Do you still want to be friends?

Sincerely,

Chris Walker

I did it, and here's what I wrote:
I agree with you, this is the worst, most sickening game on the internet. I just couldn't believe the amount of red blood and gore in this ga-

Nah, just kidding.

Well, excuse me, but I thought this was a free country, so um... where the hell do you get off telling us what should or shouldn't be on the internet? Also, if you don't want kids playing this game.... Why the hell are you broadcasting it on Live news? Obviously, kids are going to see this video on the tv or internet, and, as human nature goes, will be attracted to it. So congratulations Fox News, in an attempt to get kids to stop playing this game, you probably brought in a few thousand more views.

Yeah, but in doing so... (look below) (By the way, what's awaremness?)
