AP Wire | 11/29/2005 | Groups protest cannibalism in video games — Too bad this trend didn’t happen sooner. There’d be less school shootings.

Meanwhile various do-gooders (read the article) tell how this cannibalism thing is sending a bad message to kids. Exactly how stupid do they think kids are to take any of this seriously? Cannibalism? Puh-leeze. Don’t expect this to become a big trend, boneheads!

WASHINGTON – Video games glamorizing guns and violence have long drawn the ire of media watchdog groups. This holiday season, they say they have found a bloody new wrinkle to hate: cannibalism.

Games featuring graphic scenes of cannibalism, “F.E.A.R.” and “Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse,” were among the 12 “games to avoid” listed Tuesday by the National Institute on Media and the Family.

“It’s something we’ve never seen before,” said institute president David Walsh, warning that today’s games are “more extreme” and more easily available to underage kids than ever before.
