Here's more evidence to prove that people are crazy and that violence is evidently preferable to sex:
"While San Andreas is already full of violent behavior and sexual themes, the pornographic sex scenes push it over the edge," said the group's founder, David Walsh.
This is from an article about the supposedly hidden sex scene in "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas."
I can just picture the reaction of a concerned parent: "Oh heavens! Little Johnny might learn that people have sex if he plays this game in which you run around stealing cars, killing people, and beating up hookers."
I guess if Justin Timberlake had smacked Janet Jackson around instead of exposing her breast there would have been a few complaints, but not the uproar that resulted from the briefly exposed breast.
Years ago, in the comic "Sachs & Violens," Peter David made a comment about how violence seems to be more palatable to people than sex.
He said something along the lines of "If one guy blows another guy away with a gun, that's fine. If he blows him away in a different fashion, that's another matter entirely."
(I probably totally misquoted that, but hey, it's been more than ten years since I read it)
I would say that definitely holds true, and apparently a kill is better than a kiss...
Ultimately, I just find myself amazed by the ability that people have to worry about useless shit like this.
Why not save your outrage for something that's actually happening in the real world? Just a thought...
