    Ever since Mortal Kombat. They won’t fucking drop it. 30-40 years of this shit already.

      Hello! I played D&D first in nineteen-eighty-fucking-one and lived through the Satanic Panic. Have you seen Tom Hanks in his first big acting role? My parents sat me down in front of that. But I’m still playing D&D in a campaign right now, and my son plays as well. Aha, take that Satanic Panic!

      It’s the same shit every decade. They just need something to blame violence on, because surely it can’t be gun culture.

        Your parents made you watch a film because they were concerned you could not distinguish reality from fiction?

          Well, I was something like 13, and I remember it on TV. I lived in a rural area, where we got about 6 channels on an antenna tower. I watched what they watched.
