Poll assignment for final project. (your participation could keep me in college!)

Questions

1. Are you aware of the bill submitted by Congressman Joe Baca which would require warning labels for games? Yes, I am.

2. How does this impact you? Me personally? It doesn't really affect my purchases. It does however affect my life. I work in a retail store where games are sold, so should the bill pass, I'll have to explain it to everyone who buys the games.

3. If this bill was passed what would you do?
I would explain to those that buy it that it is not my opinion that this is fact. I believe that violent games have the capacity for heightening aggressive behavior, but no more than movies or any other form of media. I personally tend to find them as a relief- after a long day at work it is intensely satisfying to let loose.

1. Are you aware of the bill submitted by Congressman Joe Baca which would require warning labels for games?

Yes, yes I am.

2. How does this impact you?

It doesn't impact me personally, but it impacts the hobby I love most, and does so not based on factual evidence, but based on what they simply think is factual evidence.

3. If this bill was passed what would you do?

***** about it on the internet most likely. Not much I could do, except try and spread the word that its just full of crap.

Hope that helps.
