Yes, thanks. To clarify, I'm asking whether the creators of content should have any responsibility for the way in which it will be consumed.
There's no black and white line that I would draw. Parents ARE responsible for their children's upbringing.
Does that relieve the rest of us of all responsibility for the society we create?
I don't believe that playing GTA or watching Saw XVIII is going to make anyone a murderer. That doesn't mean I think we should be racing to the bottom, trying to see how far we can take things.
To be clear, I consider these issues ones that people should solve for themselves, not ones for the government to get involved in. As far as I'm concerned, any censorship or forced labeling of content is a violation of the First Amendment. It's not the government's job to police, but it should be our responsibility to consider.
I would say it's unethical for parents to abdicte their gatekeeper responsibilities to the clerk at gamestop.
