He just lost the college-age vote.

In the video game world, there are various types of games that are rated “Mature.” My 16-year-old son explains them to me and shows me reviews, and if there is only violence that makes “sense” in a War Games kind of way, I allow him to purchase those games. Like the Halo games. I have watched him play them and have even occasionally let my younger son have a turn. I understand the character of my teen and he is not glued to these games, or violent and surly the rest of the time. He even loves to “hack” the games to find out how they are developed, and like many bright 16-year-olds he would love to be a part of the gaming industry one day.

He and his older, voter-age, gaming compatriots are VERY MILITANT against ANY candidate who wants to make video games with violence in them harder to purchase or use. They get on bandwagons faster than we do against Hillary. This is no joke.

The Republican Party is stone deaf toward this kind of voter, as they proved with the online gambling ban. They are pandering to "mom" again - worse than the Clinton Democrats ever did.
