Every violent game has an age rating on it and children who are not of the age requirement shouldn't be playing these games anyway. Bans of this nature not only harm the communities involved, but also harm the economies all over the world.\r\n\r\nThe actions I wish to have taken place are for any petitions about the banning of any type of videogame to be rejected and for punishments for those who buy age restricted games for minors to be put in place.","committee_note":null,"state":"closed","signature_count":5,"created_at":"2013-04-02T21:18:35.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:29:00.103Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2013-04-03T12:51:43.000Z","closed_at":"2014-04-03T12:51:43.000Z","moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2013-04-02T21:18:35.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[],"signatures_by_country":[],"signatures_by_constituency":[],"signatures_by_region":[],"other_parliamentary_business":[]}}}
