I didn't say that you called for censorship, only Judge Bork. And he's flat-out wrong. Censorship is not a conservative virtue.

My point is that violent entertainment has been around as long as there has been enough human beings to produce it. Old as the hills.

It didn't destroy Elizabethan England, and it's not destroying us now. Arguments to the contrary are based on feelings, not evidence. I can respect those who make the arguments, but that doesn't make the arguments themselves terribly persuasive.
