I work retail electronics and the reason we ask for ID is because the register screen prompts us to, because retail chains want to appear to be morally responsible.

It's not rocket science, it doesn't keep games out of the hands of minors - parents generally buy it for them.

I've screwed up and sold M rated games to minors, infact I'll admit I knowingly sold God of War 2 to a 17 year old I know.

So I should probably be reprimanded right? I should not go to prison, that's fucking absurd. I can sell a copy of Saw 3 or A Clockwork Orange to a minor with no legal problems in any state, but "Halo 2" will get me in jail? Go fuck yourself if you think that's fair.
