Pr0n didn’t kill me. Shock didn’t kill me (It shocked me the first time, though!). It won’t kill my kids either. I find it’s better to prepare people for the world than to hide them from it. It really depends on who you’re talking about though. Some could watch SWAP.AVI with no problems, while others could be so impressionable that a Mario game could cause irreparable harm. (Yes, even adults!)

There’s my $0.02.

Your argument makes your very young age glaringly apparent. The argument is not, and never was, about physical harm or death caused by shock imagery. The problem is mental and psychological damage caused by exposure to shocking, or fundamentally improper materials at too young an age. That type of damage can not be measured or told until that child reaches adulthood. If you are under the age of 15, and I bet very highly that you are, the damage done to you will not be seen until you reach adulthood, at least. Of course, you will yell and scream about how mature you are, and how none of this has affected you. The problem is, if it has affected you, you would be the last person who would be able to tell.
