A two-panel debate comic. The left panel is labeled CONCERN in a red banner: an older man at a podium points to a board reading "VIDEO GAMES: VIOLENCE -> NO CONSEQUENCE." The right panel is labeled RESPONSE in a green banner: a younger man gestures toward a board reading "VIDEO GAMES: VIOLENCE -> LIKE, 50 POINTS!", as though scoring points is the consequence. Votey: a black-and-white drawing of a wild-eyed, manic man brandishing a knife overhead and shouting "SEE?!", taking the violence-equals-points logic to a deranged real-world conclusion.
