Yes you are right and i have already apologized to them. I am not asking them to become detectives and go and search for the truth. this is a discussion forum. we cannot just post our thoughts and leave. in a discussion there is always two sides. and the only way to end the discussion is for one side agrees with the other side. well at least for me.
Yes, this is a discussion forum, however, that's the definition of a debate, discussion is where we come to share and elaborate/evaluate our opinions at length, comparing and talking about each other's opinions without necessarily changing them, a debate on the other hand pretty much relies on changing the viewpoint of your opposition.
Also, it's very difficult to change a person's viewpoint on a matter, specifically mine, considering my opinion of this comes from a set of moral values I've carried with me for most of my life, so by that token, this discussion will never end, because the chances of me agreeing with you on this matter are slim to none.
You say that no one here has given you their true thoughts, I take exception to that, what I told you were my true thoughts and opinions on the matter, I believe that no fault rests with the parents due to the fact that to kill one's own mother, you have to be suffering from some form of mental instability, because there's no way you could make that call on a rational basis.
As I said before, Daniel's father took away the game because he believed it to be too violent, there could be other reasons behind it not yet explored either, perhaps the games were taking away time that Daniel could have used to be doing something a little more productive, did he attend college? Could he have been doing coursework instead? All of these are possibilities and if this is so, Daniel's father was well within his rights to take the game away.
Hell, his father is well within his rights to do anything with that game, it's his house, his rules, you respect your parent's orders and wishes or find somewhere else to live, simple as that.
Also, don't call people simple minded just because they don't agree with you, that's just the pot calling the kettle black right there.
