I don't like how they classify WoW as a violent game.  It's not very bloody and not a shooter.

At least they aren't blaming WoW for the violence in Tibet...

If you took WoW out of its high fantasy setting, I'd say it's a very violent game.  Pillaging, mugging, executions, prize fighting, warring, cult/satanic worship with blood, bombing runs, hunting for sport, etc.  It's just kind of covered up in its cutesy graphics and storytelling.

I just really want to see a study done on Donnie's relaxation level when someone gets to be a "living bomb" and runs after him.   Cheesy

Scary stuff, Nick.  I'll drink a cold one in honor of SGT Brewer!

At least you were part of the efforts that had body armor.  Although, I still wear my pull over fleece and boonie cap when I hunt!
