What some people said about the PTC attempting to place tv under stricter control also applies to this.

"My parents raised me with the idea that certain things were for adults only. For the government to interfere with my job because parents can't handle their responsibilities is unconscionable. I've got a message for concerned parents: Do your job, and raise your kids. Don't let them sit in front of the TV, staying up until 11 p.m. Put books in their rooms instead of TVs and video games.
Legislation is not the answer."
"What is truly obscene is the self-appointed thought police butting into other people's lives. If they are truly concerned about families and children, they ought to use their time and money to address real problems like homelessness, the lack of health care and the poisoning of our environment."
-Letters to Time Magazine

Sure, while porn in a video game is definately a bad thing, and should be addressed, restricting sales of other games because of one series is bull. The parents should be the ones with responsibility, not the government!

She's being way too harsh. AO, I can understand. That's veeeeeeeeeery explicit stuff there. In fact, only a few games have made it to that rating. But M-rated games should be left alone. There are M-rated games that only just deserve the rating, or that got it because they were very realistic.
And there's plenty of stuff worse than a few videogames. How about stronger laws against domestic violence?

Edit: Many games include violence because it's a part of the story. When something adds to the plot, I think it's justified, as long as it doesn't go into full-blown porno.
