Bully Protesters March on Rockstar

Imagine the scene. Downtown New York City. An unknown amount of people are marching toward a corporation's American headquarters, carrying signs and chanting slogans. They're not protesting unfair wages, or the exploitation of workers. They're protesting about the content in a game they've never seen. Bully, Rockstar's latest edition of controversy-slash-cool-game-idea, has youth group Peaceaholics up in arms about the concept of a child getting into simulated schoolyard fights, and they're fed up enough to talk about it.

It's just depressing that young people can be so cause-headed toward [b]video games[/B] when there's important issues swirling around their heads at breakneck speed. It's not the deficit, it's not the war in Iraq, it's a video game which hasn't even been released yet. I think it's great these people's voices are heard, but there used to be a time where people ran off to virtual reality to avoid hard hitting issues and, you know, have fun beating the hell out of people. Times, they are a-changin'.
