clan gangs

I was looking at a web site called "mothers against videogame addiction and violence" and I found the statement on the top of the site interesting.

 

Video Game Addiction and
Violence in Underground Video Game Cultures

Video game addiction is without a doubt, becoming this century's most increasingly worrisome epidemic, comparable even to drug and alcohol abuse. All the while, the video game industry continues to market and promote hatred, racism, sexism, and the most disturbing trend: clans and guilds, an underground video game phenomenon which closely resembles gangs. Parents NEED to be aware of the hidden dangers.

 

I had no idea that when I joined a clan that I was becoming a gang member.

Who supports the video game industry? Us, the responsible adults on this forum and others and "them", the parents who buy their children an Xbox 360 and the adult rated games. So, perhaps they need to rethink what they place in timmies hands without parental supervision.
