One thing i have to say is adults need to get over this "Oh my god that could be inturpurted as violence, then it would teach our kids about violence, then we'd have another school shooting, ah ah ah". Its the same with video games, music and movies. Trust me no normal child that sees to robots running into eachother will want to go on a rampage. America as a whole needs to get out of this "any violence will turn our kids into psychopaths". If your an adult and you don't like battle bots because it promotes violence between bots then you haven't been to this years compititon, sure we don't have blades but we did hit eachother hard. Sure we don't try to damage eachother but we don't go out of our way to avoid contact with other bots. Violence is human nature and if you think that exposing a child to any form of violence will scar him for life then when hes 18 and steps out into the world out of the cave you've kept him in he will go crazy at the sight of it. Do your kids a favor and don't listen to Tipper Gore she dosen't really know what shes talking about.
