Does anyone give a damn? If a person wants to listen to ceritain music, one will find a way.* Underaged or not. I doubt there are many in here that can't download (illegal as it may be), or burn cd's. And hey, if you can't, some of your friends must be able to! Too bad I'm not 18 and can't buy it. Well.. I'll get it for free!!
I'm not reccomending people to download instead of buying, I'm just facing reality.
One question (that I won't see answers to before I leave town anyways...):
Do stores in other countries really give a damn about it? If a 10yo walks to the register with a cd marked Parental Advisory, does the clerck say "Nopes, sorry man, you're too young! Now go home to mommy!!"?
I've never heard of it happening here, except with video games that get lots of media coverage, like GTA. Some angry feminists were bithcing in the news about it, so the stores tightened the security concerning it.
Some of the staff in those stores are even younger than 18 themselves, heck, younger than 16, so it's not like it's hard to buy it anyways.
Now my point of view.
I think this is a good thing, but it's impossible to follow stricktly. It's a good sign of "status", if i could say so. So it won't surprice you* :bleh:
Anyways... I'm late.
Bye!

USA is one of rare countries that follow the PA and movie ratings.
For example, my brother was not able (without my help

) to see American Pie in Movie Theater, because he was under 17 at the time movie was released.
You can't get M rated games or R rated movies in rental stores or media stores if you underage.
Same goes for alcohol and cigarettes.
From this example country, I don't see those PA and movie/game ratings do any good.
As for first post, of course it was joke. None of that stuff on the label is true!
(I believe that all 'holy' books should have label like that. That might make this planed much more better place to live on

)
