Video game violence protected by the 1st amendment

So um, just an observation here… Remember Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction”? …And all the public outrage and congressional hearings which ensued? I’m just wondering if some of the same people who were OUTRAGED!!! about their kids being subjected to Janet’s nipple are among those ushering the 1st amendment to the rescue of violence in video games.

Is this really our position as a society? Do we really believe that perpetually desensitizing our children to violence on a daily basis is less damaging to them than a glimpse of a bare breast?

Just checking.
