I think it comes down to where you stand on whether violence in media desensitizes one to real life violence and thus encourages it. I think it does, so society has to attempt to keep kids away from it, even if it can be assumed that such efforts will fail. Adults can do as they want so long as they don't hurt others, that is what freedom is all about, but this does not hold for kids.
In my opinion all extreme violence in media should be x rated, sexual violence is not special in this regards.
