How about we make a "Steve Austin vs Reality, bad for kids?" How many kids went to school shooting birds at their teachers? How many kids got a hold of a beer can after being influenced by the rattlesnake? How many of those kids improved their vocabulary usage after being introduced to such words and/or phrases such as "Jackass", "Asshole", "Can of Whoop-ass", "The toughest S.O.B." etc. etc. etc.

It was a different product, different rating. Kids watch it, but they aren't supposed to. It's the parents' job to police what their kids do, not the WWE's, especially when they have warnings.

I understand that, and I also understand that the "It's up to the parents..." it to easy of a cop out when it comes to discussing it. The fact is, that Stone Cold reached kids, weather we want to sit here and call out millions of parents for being "bad parents" as some would like to, so it still remains, why would this come up before a Steve Austin discussion about the same thing come up? Different time, same product, same machine, BIGGER IMPACT.
